Subject: Lyr Add: MY OLD SAVANNAH HOME
Could it be My Old Savannah Home?
Check out the info on the page at bottom..........

Where de balmy airs am sighin' and de roses catch de dew,
And de mockin' birds am singin' in de trees.
Deres a charmin' little city and I'll ebber hold it true,
I'se brought up amongst its butterflies and bees.
Thro' its pastures an' green fields I've played de whole day long,
Yet from dem all I've been obliged to roam.
But when I think of the happy times, de merry song and dance,
I long to see my Old Savannah Home.

Chorus

I long to see ma home again and feel its scented breeze,
Through its sunny streets I long to roam,
I long to hear dem mockin' birds a-singin' in de trees,
Dat grew around ma old Savannah Home.
