  *++Lyrics:|\\
Way down yonder where I was born,\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
I used to and come by de sound ob de horn,\\
On de banks by de ribber side.\\
Dar was one day dat we love best\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
'Twas good old Sunday, de day ob rest,\\
On de banks by de ribber side.\\
\\
//chorus: //\\
Den Ise gwin back again,\\
Soon I'll be back again,\\
I left sister Sue and ole missus too,\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
\\
Dar was ole Uncle Ben and my sister Sue\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
Along wid de rest ob de Christian crew,\\
On de banks by de ribber side;\\
Dey would meet us dar at de break ob day,\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
To hear what de preacher was gwine for to say\\
On de banks by de ribber side.\\
\\
I went ot de church and I climed dat steeple,\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
So I could look down on all dem people\\
On de banks by de ribber side;\\
I looked way ober on de mountain top\\
On de banks by de ribber side,\\
I seen dem angels' wings gwine flip up and flop,\\
On de banks by de ribber side.\\
\\
