Sunny Swanee - 1916

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK 01 Aug 2001

Sam Brown had lost his appetite,
Some how he couldn't sleep at night,
All he did was worrying,
Working got a bore
Till he said "I'm hurrying
Towards my Swanee shore."

Sunny Swanee, sunny Swanee,
Tho' you're far from me,
I still remember That September
Nineteen Twenty Three,
When I went roaming,
Now I'm homing,
Nearer day by day
Those ne'er forgotten
Fields of cotton
Sunny Swanee way.

Sunny Swanee, sunny Swanee,
Tho' you're far from me,
I still remember That September
Nineteen Twenty Three,
When I went roaming,
Now I'm homing,
Nearer day by day
Those ne'er forgotten
Fields of cotton
Sunny Swanee way.

Sam Brown, a toothbrush and a comb
Soon hit the trail for
Home Sweet Home,
Said Goodbye to Michigan,
Shook his dusty shoes
Said "I'll never wish again
My old home town to lose."

Sunny Swanee, sunny Swanee,
Tho' you're far from me,
I still remember That September
Nineteen Twenty Three,
When I went roaming,
Now I'm homing,
Nearer day by day
Those ne'er forgotten
Fields of cotton
Sunny Swanee way.

Sunny Swanee, sunny Swanee,
Tho' you're far from me,
I still remember That September
Nineteen Twenty Three,
When I went roaming,
Now I'm homing,
Nearer day by day
Those ne'er forgotten
Fields of cotton
Sunny Swanee way.
