When It's Sleepy Time Down South
by Humphrey Lyttelton
on Bad Penny Blues [Humphrey Lyttelton]
Lyrics
Homesick tired All alone in a big city
Why should ev'rybody pity me,
Nighttime's falling, folks are a singin',
they dance till break of day
Dear Old Southland with it's dreamy songs
Takes me back there where I belong
How I'd love to be in mammy's arms
When It's Sleepy Time Down South
