Lyrics:
to roam?
I gonna take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin'
Dear old Southland I hear you calling me.
And I long how I long to roam
back to my old Kentucky home.
Dear old Southland for you my heart is
on the old river shore
I am sad and weary far away from home
Miss the Mississippi and you dear
Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam
Miss
To toss away.
She's in Santa-Fe,
Dear, dear, dear, dear, dear Santa-Fe
Now she's opened up an old maid's home,
She's proud, but she needs to roam
I'm going there to meet my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a-going over Jordan
I'm just a-going over home.
--- Instrumental ---
I'm
going there to see my mother
And I'm going there no more to roam
And I'm only going over Jordan
And I'm only going over home now
And I know dark clouds
Free and easy, that's my style
Howdy-do me, watch me smile
Fare-thee-well me after a while
'Cause I gotta roam
And any place I hang my hat is
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
Dear old Southland I hear you calling me.
And I long how I long to roam
back to my old Kentucky home.
Dear old Southland for you my heart is
I need someone to know me and to show me
Trafalgar, Trafalgar, Trafalgar, please don't let me down
Ten hundred people roam through the place I
say "We love to wander,"
"Lord we love,"
"Lord we love to roam"
And as we walked
Through the streets of Arklow
In a drenching beauty
Rolling
Ev'ry where I roam
Oh, darkies how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
All up and down the whole creation
Sadly I roam
Still longing for
and ask for forgiveness
We'll meet up in heaven, someday.
Goodbye to this world, with all its sorrows
Goodbye to the fields, that I used to roam
I'm going
I'm going to London
Where my love is
Tomorrow I'll roam around
Old fabulous London Town
I'll search every face I see around me
Until I hold
I got the key to the highway
Dear Lord, I'm bound to go
I'm gonna roam this highway until the day I die
Yes, when the moon peep o'er
and clear but I don't understand
I'm a digital explorer in analog roam
And everybody's on the phone
Do you remember dialing up?
Yes, I remember well
I got the key to the highway
Dear Lord, I'm bound to go
I'm gonna roam this highway until the day I die
Yes, when the moon peep o'er
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays,
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine
Of a friendly face
For
than the eyes of the car-people?
styled in silver
are you able to roam
faster than the lighthouse keeper credits you?
If you could see me now
The one who said that he'd rather roam
The one who said he'd rather be alone
If you could only see me now
If I could hold
to roam
I'm gonna take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Seven that's the time we leave
At seven I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Anywhere I chance to roam;
The music on the Wabash that I left behind
Calls me back home.
Oh, how I'd love to see that lazy river,
Stop and hive her my
