Song of the South
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.

Sooner or Later
Sooner or later you're gonna
be comin' around,
I betcha, I betcha that I catch ya,
You wait and see.
Sooner or later you're gonna
be hangin' around,
I betcha, I betcha if I catch ya,
You'll hear from me.
You're gonna knock on my door
You done it before
Matter of factly I don't know exactly when
But Sooner or Later you're gonna
be hangin' around
And want my cookin' again.
You're gonna knock on my door
You don't it before [knock knock]
Matter of factly I 'spected you 'zactly then!
Cause sooner or later I know you'd
be hangin' around
And want my cookin' again. (But you ain't gonna get it!)
Uncle Remus Said
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Listen now to what I say:
That's how the critters got that way.
The leopard's pappy got the gout,
From eatin' too much speckled trout.
His mammy dreamed of polka dots—
That's how the leopard got his spots.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Speckled trout and polka dots—
That's how the leopard got his spots.
More, more, tell us more!
The camel crossed the dessert sands,
With all them mighty caravans.
His bed was full of sandy lumps—
That's how the camel got those humps.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Bed was full of sandy lumps—
That's how the camel got those humps.
More, more, tell us more!
The pig he saw his monkey friend,
A-swinging by his other end.
He tried the same thing on a rail—
That's how the pig got a curly tail.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Tried the same thing on a rail—
That's how the pig got a curly tail.
More, more, tell us more!
More, more, more.
How Do You Do?
How do you do? Fine! A friendly greetin'.
How do you do? Say it when you're meetin'.
How do you do? With everyone repeatin':
Pretty good, sure as you're born.
What goes up is sure to come down,
Penny lost is a penny found,
I'll "howdy" you, you'll "howdy" back,
This for that an' tit for tat.
Chorus: How do you do?
Fine, how are you?
How you come on?
Pretty good, sure as you're born.
Uncle Remus: Stop jumpin', Br'er Rabbit,
you'll run out of breath.
Why don't you sit down an' calm yourself?
Brer Rabbit: Well the grasshopper jump,
and so do the flea.
I do what I like, and I suits me!
[Repeat Chorus]
Uncle Remus: The weather's good, the fishin's fine.
Now what do you do with all your time?
Brer Rabbit: Oh, I zigs and I zags, I to's and I fro's.
That's what you're askin'
and that's what you knows.
[Repeat Chorus]
Brer Frog: Mind now, Br'er Rabbit, better mend your ways.
You's headin' for trouble one of these days.
Uncle Remus: Warnin' that rabbit is wastin' your breath!
Brer Rabbit: Don't worry about me;
I can take care of myself!
Everybody Has A Laughing Place
Hee, hee, hee, hee, ha, ha, ha!
Boy am I in luck!
I think about my laughin' place,
Yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk! Ha-yuk, yuk!
Everybody's got a laughin' place,
A laughin' place, to go ho-ho!
Take a frown, turn it upside-down,
And you'll find yours I know ho-ho!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
Boy am I in luck!
I think about my laughin' place,
Ha-yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk!
Everybody's got a laughin' place,
A laughin' place, to go ho-ho!
Take a frown, turn it upside-down,
And you'll find yours I know ho-ho!
Who Wants To Live Like That?
Ol' Br'er Possum got a trick
How come he get so fat?
When trouble come along
he play like dead
Now who wants to live like that?
Well I do, I surely do
I can't see nothin' wrong
While other folks is worryin'
I'm sleepin' all day long
Well I do, I surely do
It's funny but it's true
That's what I abso-positive-I-lutely wants to do!
Let The Rain Pour Down
(Trouble trouble trouble fly away) Wake up early in the mornin',
when the ding-dong ring, look up
Goin' down to the kitchen room,
it's the same ol' thing
Wanna get a bite of somethin'
for that hungry look, look up
Stick your finger in the dumplin',
get your trouble with the cook
Let the rain pour down,
let the cold wind blow
Gonna stay right here
in the home I know
(Trouble trouble trouble fly away) Havin' trouble with the weevil,
never did like that, look up
Got the cotton full of evil
like a hypocrite's hat
When the weevil get the cotton
everybody feels low, look out
There'll be nothin' on the table
when the dinner horn blow.
Let the rain pour down,
let the cold wind blow
Gonna stay right here
in the home I know
(Trouble fly away fly away). When you're achin' with the mis'ry,
and you're old and gray (headin', headin')
Then you'd better be thankful
that He let you stay.
Let you stay to see the children
playin' 'round your door (headin', headin')
For the time is soon a'comin'
when you won't be here no more.
Let the rain pour down,
let the cold wind blow
Gonna stay right here in the home I know.
All I Want
More and more faith in Him
He made all the stars
and the moon and the sun
More and more faith in Him
He numbered the grass
and the birds, every one
More and more faith in Him, my Savior
All I want, all I want
All I want, more and more faith in Him, my Savior
All I want, all I want
All I want, is more and more faith in Him
Angel have mercy on this little child
More and more faith in Him
He's only been here
such a mighty little while
More and more faith in Him
