Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby Your mommas gone away and your daddy's gone to stay
Didn't leave nobody but the baby Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby Everybody's gone in the cotton and the corn
Didn't leave nobody but the baby You're sweet little baby
You're sweet little baby Honey in the rock and the sugar don't stop
Gonna bring a bottle to the baby Don't you weep pretty baby
Don't you weep pretty baby She's long gone with the red shoes on
Gonna meet another lovin` baby Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby You and me and the devil makes three
Don't need no other lovin` baby Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby Come and lay your bones on the alabaster stones
And be my ever lovin` baby
