Plantation Pieces, Camp Meeting Songs
DOWN UPON THE LEVEE
Down upon the levee The moon is all aglow,
Down upon the levee Where the coons all go.
The river seems to slumber So peaceful is its flow,
Down upon the levee Where the coons all go.
There goes a dusky maiden With her banjo and her beau,
Down upon the levee Where the coons all go.
There is music, there is dancing With the fiddle and the bow,
Down upon the levee Where the coons all go.
And if I was in Dixie
The first place I would go,
Would be down upon the levee Where the coons all go.
