I know de moon is shinin' down erpon
de Eastern sho',
An' de bay's a-sayin' "Howdy" to de
lan';
An' de folks is all a-settin' out erroun' de
cabin do',
Wid dey feet a-restin' in de silvah
san';
An' de ol' plantation's callin' to me,
Come, oh, come,
F'om de life dat's de's a-waihin' you
erway
F'om de trouble an' de bustle, an' de agernizin' hum
Dat de city keeps ergoin' all de day.
