Let me sing a happy song
With crazy words that roll along
And if my song could start you laughing
I'm happy, happy

Let me sing a sad refrain
Of broken hearts that loved in vain
And if my song could start you crying
I'm happy

Let me croon a low down blues
To knock you out of your seat
If my song could reach your shoes
And start you tapping your feet
Then I'm happy

Let me sing of Dixie's charms
Of cotton fields and my mammy's arms
And if my song could make you homesick
I'm happy

Let me croon a low down blues
To knock you off of your feet
If my song could reach your shoes
And start you tapping your feet
Then I'm happy

Let me sing of Dixie's charms
Cotton fields and my mammy's arms
If my song could make you homesick
I'm happy, I'm so happy

Sing of Dixie's charms and my mammy's arms
Come on, and let me sing
Then I'll be happy
