Waiting for the Robert E. Lee - Kathy Kirby[00:00:00]
Written by:Gilbert/Mills[00:00:01]
Way down on the levy in old Alabamy[00:00:05]
There's Daddy and Mammy[00:00:08]
There's Ephraim and Sammy[00:00:10]
On a moonlight night you can find them all[00:00:12]
While they are waiting[00:00:15]
The banjos are syncopating[00:00:17]
What's that they're saying[00:00:18]
What's that they're saying[00:00:20]
While they keep playing[00:00:22]
A - humming and swaying[00:00:23]
It's the good ship Robert E. Lee[00:00:24]
That's come to carry the cotton away[00:00:27]
Watch them shuffling along[00:00:32]
See them shuffling along[00:00:35]
Go take your best gal real pal[00:00:38]
Go down to the levy I said to the levy[00:00:42]
And join that shuffling throng[00:00:45]
Hear that music and song[00:00:49]
It's simply great mate waiting on the levy[00:00:52]
Waiting for the Robert E. Lee[00:00:56]
The whistles are blowing the smokestacks are showing[00:00:59]
The ropes they are throwing excuse me I'm going[00:01:03]
To the place where all is harmonious[00:01:06]
Even the preacher he is the dancing teacher[00:01:10]
Have you been down there[00:01:13]
Were you around there[00:01:15]
If you ever go there you'll always be found there[00:01:16]
Why dog-gone here comes my baby[00:01:20]
On the good old Robert E. Lee[00:01:23]
Watch them shuffling along[00:01:26]
See them shuffling along[00:01:30]
Go take your best gal real pal[00:01:33]
Go down to the levy I said to the levy[00:01:37]
And join that shuffling throng[00:01:41]
Hear that music and song[00:01:44]
It's simply great mate waiting on the levy[00:01:47]
Waiting for the Robert E. Lee[00:01:51]
