Lyrics for Rock-A-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody

Rock-a-bye your baby with a Dixie melody When you croon, croon a tune from the heart of Dixie And just place my cradle, mammy mine Right on the Mason Dixon line And swing it from Virginia To Tennessee with all the love that's in ya Weep no more, my lady Sing that song for me And little joy, just as though You had me on your knee A million baby kisses I'm gonna deliver The minute that you sing that Swanee River Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby with a Dixie melody Oh, people want my fair lady Why don't you sing the song for me? And little joy, just as though You're happy right now A million baby kisses I said, said I'm gonna deliver The minute that you sing that Swanee River Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby with a Dixie melody One more time, yeah A million baby kisses I'm gonna deliver The minute that you sing that Swanee River Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby with a Dixie melody, oh
