Ray Charles › Lyrics › Swanee River Rock (Talkin' 'Bout That River)

Do you know way down, way down upon the Swanee, talking 'bout the river
So know we're so far, so far away, oh yeah
Do you know that's where, where my heart is turning ever
And that's where, that's where the old folks stay

All the world is sad and lonely now everywhere I roam
Keep on tell you my darling
How my heart is going sad, so sad and lonely
Because I'm so far, I'm far from my folks back home

All the world is sad and lonely now everywhere I roam
Keep on tell you my darling
How my heart is going sad, so sad and lonely
Because I'm so far, so far from my folks back home, yeah

I'm far from my folks back home, yeah
So far from my folks back home, yeah
Oh far from my folks back home, yeah
