My Dear Old Southern Home Doc Watson & David Grisman

[Chorus]
In my dear old southern home
I was happy as I could be
Where the mockingbirds sang at night while they rest
In that little old log cabin by the sea

Oh-de-le-ee-oh-de-oh-le-ee
Oh-de-le-ee-oh-de-oh-le-ee
De-oh-de-le-ee-oh-de-oh-le-ee-oh
De-oh-le-ee-le-ee-le-ee

[Verse 1]
Oh my dear old Mother and Dad
When I left them, I know it made them sad
But today I'm going back to that [?] little shack
Where I spent my happy days as a lad

[Chorus]
In my dear old southern home
I was happy as I could be
Where the mockingbirds sang at night while they rest
In that little old log cabin by the sea

[Verse 2]
Oh, my friends, I'm leaving today
Today, I'll be going far away
To the place I long to see where my mother waits for me
And when I get back to my home, I'll stay
