The
Swanee River
Written
by Stephen
C. Foster
Way down upon de Swanee Ribber,
Far, far away,
Dere's wha my heart is turning ebber,
Dere's wha de old folks stay.
All up and down de whole creation
Sadly I roam,
Still longing for de old plantation,
And for de old folks at home.
Chorus
All de world am sad and dreary
Eb-rywhere I roam;
Oh, darkeys, how my heart grows weary,
Far from de old folks at home!
2nd
verse
All
round de little farm I wandered
When I was young,
Den many happy days I squandered,
Many de songs I sung.
When I was playing wid my brudder
Happy was I;
Oh, take me to my kind old mudder!
Dere let me live and die.
3rd
Verse
One
little hut among de bushes,
One dat I love Still sadly to my memory rushes
,No matter where I rove.
When will I see de bees a-humming
All round de comb/
When will I hear de banjo strumming,
Down in my good old home?

Florida,
My Florida
Written
by Rev Dr. C. V. Waugh
Land of my birth, bright
sunkissed land,Florida, my Florida.
Laded by the Gulf and Ocean grand,
Florida, my Florida.
Of all the States in East or West,
Unto my heart thou art the best
Here may I live, here may I rest
Florida, my Florida.
The golden fruit the
world outshines
Florida, my Florida,
Thy gardens and thy phosphate mines,
Florida, my Florida,
In country, town, or hills and dells,
Florida, my Florida,
The rythmic chimes of the school bells
Florida, my Florida,
Will call thy children day by day
To learn to walk the patriot's way
Firmly to stand for thee for aye
Florida, my Florida.
Yield their rich store
of good supply,
To still the voice of hunger's cry
For thee we'll live, for thee we'll die
Florida, my Florida.

Florida
You know my heart is on fire
Someday I'm gonna retire with you
I long for you Florida
Florida
Keeps me safe like a brother
The cops are all undercover
It's for the best Florida
Bridge
The best thing about a German Tourist
Is nothing at all
Customs guy was remiss for not warning
That BMWs stall
Florida
You know my heart is on fire
You'll find me floating on tires
To be with you Florida
