I'm dreaming now of Hallie
Sweet Hallie, sweet Hallie
I'm dreaming now of Hallie
For the thought of her is one that never dies
She's sleeping in the valley
The valley, the valley
She's sleeping in the valley
And the mockingbird is singing where she lies
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
The mockingbird's still singing o'er her grave
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
Still singing where the weeping willows wave
How well I yet remember
Remember, remember
How well I yet remember
When we gathered in the cotton side by side
'Twas in the mild September
September, September
'Twas in the mild September
And the mockingbird was singing far and wide
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
The mockingbird's still singing o'er her grave
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
Still singing where the weeping willows wave
When the charms of spring are awaken
Awaken, awaken
When the charms of spring are awaken
And the mockingbird is singing far and wide
I feel like one forsaken
Forsaken, forsaken
I feel like one forsaken
Since my Hallie is no longer with me now
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
The mockingbird's still singing o'er her grave
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
Still singing where the weeping willows wave
'Twas at the siege of Vicksburg
Of Vicksburg, of Vicksburg
'Twas at the siege of Vicksburg
When the parrot shells were whistling through the air
Listen to the parrot shells, listen to the parrot shells
The parrot shells were whistling through the air
Listen to the parrot shells, listen to the parrot shells
The parrot shells were whistling through the air
Oh, well we will remember
Remember, remember
Tough mule meat, June sans November
And the minnie-balls would whistle through the air
Listen to the minnie-balls, listen to the minnie-balls
The minnie-balls that whistle through the air
Listen to the minnie-balls, listen to the minnie-balls
The minnie-balls that whistle through the air
