Down south the banjos cry to Everybody who's sayin' hidie-hi to While the moonbeams danced on the bayou That's how rhythm was born
They praised the Mighty Forgiver They washed their sins in the river Cold water made 'em all shiver That's how rhythm was born
Folks came down and gathered round That old Swanee shore Caught the craze and sang His praise They all cried, "Why don't cha gimme some more?"
Down south the banjos cry to Everybody who's singin' hidie-hi to While the moonbeams danced on the bayou That's how rhythm was born
Down south the banjos cry to Everybody who's singin' hidie-hi to While the moonbeams danced on the bayou That's just how rhythm was born
They praised the Mighty Forgiver They washed their sins in the river Cold water, well it made them wanna shiver And that's how rhythm was born
Folks came down and gathered round That old Swanee shore Caught the craze and sang His praise And cried, "Come on, give me some more"
You can ask anyone, sir They'll answer we'll be over yonder That's how rhythm was born
Banjos cry to Don't they hidie-hi to Dance on the bayou And that's just the reason that rhythm was born
Praise and forgive 'em Washed their sins in the river Cold water makes 'em all shiver And that's just the reason that rhythm was born
Folks came down and gathered around That Swanee shore Caught the craze, sang His praise They all cried, "Why don't cha gimme some more?"
Ask you anyone, sir And they'd be glad to answer you, sir They'll answer we'll be over yonder And that's just the reason that rhythm was born
That's how rhythm was born
