"Down Where The Cotton Blossoms Grow"

J. W. Myers

Words by Andrew B. Sterling

Music by Harry Von Tilzer

I was going home again. I was waiting for my
train in a quaint old railway station way out west.

All the world was bright to me, for I knew I soon
would see dear old mother and the girl I loved the best.

I could see the rustic gate where I swung with sweetheart
Kate and my old plantation home that stood below.

May the soft moon gently shine on your sweet face, mother mine...

00:00Down where the cotton blossoms grow, sung by J.W. Miles, Columbia Records.
00:19I was going home again, I was waiting for my train.
00:27I'd seen a quaint old railway station way up west.
00:34All the world was bright to me, but I knew I soon would see
00:41dear old mother and the girl I loved the best.
00:48I could see the rusty gate where I swang with sweet heartache,
00:55and my old plantation home that stood below.
01:02May the soft moon gently shine on your sweet face, mother mine,
01:11in the hometown where the cotton blossoms grow.
01:19Because tonight a field of snowy white, hear the doffies singing soft and low,
01:32I long there to be, but the one way for me, down where the cotton blossoms grow.
