Song of the South your music
   weaves a magic spell
Song of the South, I see
   the scenes I know so well
Cottonwoods in blossom
   over my cabin door
Pale moonlight on a field of white
You bring them back once more

I seem to hear those gentle
   voices calling low
Out of the long long ago
This heart of mine is in the heart of Dixie
That's where I belong
Singing a song, a Song of the South.



The sheet music version of "Song of the South"
also contains this additional verse:

I hear the murmer of the south wind
And feel a half-remembered thrill
Plaintive echoes faintly clinging,
An old plantation air still ringing.
