**“Cedar Swamp”**

	1.	‘Way low down in the cedar swamp, Water’s deep and muddy. There I met a pretty little miss, There I met my honey.

		Chorus:
		Swing a lady up and down, Swing a lady home, Swing a lady up and down, Swing a lady home.

	2.	Built my love a big fine house, Built it on the garden. Put her in and see jumped out, Fare you well my darlin’.

		Chorus:
		Swing a lady up and down, Swing a lady home, Swing a lady up and down, Swing a lady home.
