When a lady meets a gentleman down south
'Neath a Swanee moon to a Swanee tune they love
Then the lady tells her gentleman down south
Sure, it's might fine just to know you're mine my love
Then they walk along where magnolias grow
Two hearts sing a song that was written long ago
If that's not sweet romance, then hush my mouth
When a lady meets a gentleman
A very polished gentleman
When a lady meets a gentleman down south
