I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
I dreamed I saw my own true love
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
Sailing on an angry sea, in the fog of my sleep he came to me
From my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my John
He is gone to Mobile Bay
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
Working for a dollar and a half a day
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
He is gone to New Orleans, to spit in the eye of a hurricane
From my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
I cut off all my long black hair
While my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away
No other man will think me fair
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
I dreamed a dream the other night, I dreamed I saw my own true love
But my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away
My lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away
But my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my John
