Mandy And Me 1918

In the Dixie section
where the cotton grows,
there's my home,
There's a swell complexioned gal
a Dixie rose,
All my own.
Where the sweet magnolias blossom
in the spring,
Bells will chime
I'll be home in Dixie
with a wedding ring,
for Mandy mine.

There'll be some celebration
for Mandy and me,
On her Daddy's plantation
for Mandy and me,
All the folks and the neighbors
will rest from their labors,
Ev'ry Jane, Joe and Andy
dressed up swell as can be.
They'll be gathering flowers
for Mandy and me,
And the chapel a bower
of roses will be,
And as I take
my Mandy's hand in mine
the wedding bells will chime
a song of true love
For Mandy and me.

There'll be some celebration
for Mandy and me,
On her Daddy's plantation
for Mandy and me,
All the folks and the neighbors
will rest from their labors,
Ev'ry Jane, Joe and Andy
dressed up swell as can be.
They'll be gathering flowers
for Mandy and me,
And the chapel a bower
of roses will be,
And as I take
my Mandy's hand in mine
the wedding bells will chime
a song of true love
For Mandy and me.

In the shady spot
that's near the river side,
Old Swanee
there I'll build a cot
to hold my blushing bride,
Glad we'll be,
Morning glories climbing
all around the place,
All the time
When my Mandy sees it
how her pretty face
will surely shine.

There'll be some celebration
for Mandy and me,
On her Daddy's plantation
for Mandy and me,
All the folks and the neighbors
will rest from their labors,
Ev'ry Jane, Joe and Andy
dressed up swell as can be.
They'll be gathering flowers
for Mandy and me,
And the chapel a bower
of roses will be,
And as I take
my Mandy's hand in mine
the wedding bells will chime
a song of true love
For Mandy and me.

There'll be some celebration
for Mandy and me,
On her Daddy's plantation
for Mandy and me,
All the folks and the neighbors
will rest from their labors,
Ev'ry Jane, Joe and Andy
dressed up swell as can be.
They'll be gathering flowers
for Mandy and me,
And the chapel a bower
of roses will be,
And as I take
my Mandy's hand in mine
the wedding bells will chime
a song of true love
For Mandy and me.
