Jimmie Davis — Where the Old Red River Flows

[Verse 1] On my farm in Louisiana where the old red river flows The neon lights on Broadway make the city bright and gay They're rocking and-a-rollin' and-a-twisting at the Peppermint Lounge all day But I got my ticket and I'm leaving on the big train when she goes To my farm in Louisiana where the old red river flows [Chorus] Hi-lee-oh-layee You can hear the banjo strummin' soft and low And at twilight in the evening so low, so low So low, so low On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows [Verse 2] I'm dreaming tonight of Dixie sugar cane and whippoorwills Where I spent my happy childhood among the rocks and among the rills I can see my sweet little angel just-a-waiting for me to show On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows [Chorus] Hi-lee-oh-layee You can hear the banjo strummin' soft and low And at twilight in the evening so low, so low So low, so low On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows [Outro] On my farm in Louisiana where the old Red River flows
