The American Serenade 1917 "Her Regiment"

Down in the South you hear
the darkies sing
on nights in Spring
songs with a smile, a tear,
they bring to me a memory,
there in the Southland
sorrows all depart
hear them and you will quickly understand
melodies comes from the heart.

I like to hear
a real American song,
down in the South
by banjos played.
It has a swing
that sweeps you along,
it's a wonderful ragtime serenade.
I like to hear

I like to hear

down in the South

It has a swing
that sweeps you along,
it's a wonderful ragtime serenade.

that sweeps you along,
it's a wonderful ragtime serenade.
