Jimmie Driftwood - Swing High Swing Low lyrics

(Jimmy Driftwood)

Grandpa used to work all day to make a little money

Then climbed on a load of hay and go to see his Honey

Swing high, swing low with a do – si – do – si – do

We will dance in June in the light of the moon

On the banks of the Buffalo

Swing high, swing low, don't forget swing Grandma

We will dance Old Joe with a hi – de – ho

In the hills of Arkansas

Hear the banjos ring, molly young folks sing

And the fiddler plays a wait

Swing your partner tight, if it takes all night

Till break of day

Swing high, swing low with a do – si – do – si – do

We will dance in June by the light of the moon

On the banks of the Buffalo

Hear that mountain music play

At the Ozark Mountain Tango

Salute your gal and fly away in Arkansas Fandango

Swing high, swing low with a do – si – do – si – do

We will dance in June by the light of the moon

On the banks of the Buffalo

Swing high, swing low, don't forget swing Grandma

We will dance Old Joe with a hi – de – ho

In the hills of Arkansas

Hear the banjos ring, molly young folks sing

And the fiddler plays a wait

Swing your partner tight, if it takes all night

Till break of day

Swing high, swing low with a do – si – do – si – do

We will dance in June by the light of the moon

On the banks of the Buffalo
