My window faces the South
I'm almost halfway to Heaven
The snow is fallin', still I can see
Fields of cotton smilin' at me

Hey, my window faces the South
And though I am far from the Swanee
I'm never frownin' or down in the mouth
My window faces the South

(Instrumental Break)

My window faces the South
I'm almost halfway to Heaven
The snow is fallin', still I can see
Fields of cotton smilin' at me

Hey, my window faces the South
And though I am far from the Swanee
I'm never frownin' or down in the mouth
My window faces the South
My window faces the South
