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