Lyrics
Rock-a-bye your baby with a Dixie melody
When you croon, croon a tune from the heart of Dixie
Hang that cradle mammy mine
Right on that masoned line
And swing it from Virginia to Tennessee with all the soul that's in ya
Weep no more my lady
Mammy sing it again for me
And ol' black Joe just as though
You had me on your knee
A million baby kisses I'll deliver
If you would only sing the Swanee River
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby with a Dixie melody
Rock-a-bye, hush a bye with a Dixie melody
When you croon, croon a tune from the heart of Dixie
Hang that cradle mammy mine
Right on that masoned line
And swing it from Virginia to Tennessee with all the soul that's in ya
Mammy, mammy listen what they're playing
They're playing "Weep no more my lady"
Sing it for me
And ol' black Joe just as though
You had me on your knee
A million baby kisses I'll deliver
If you would only sing the Swanee River
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby with a Dixie melody
