rate me

Song by Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and Gillian Welch<br /><br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

<br>

your momma's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay<br>

didn't leave nobody but the baby<br>

<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

<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 babe<br>

you're a sweet little babe<br>

<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 babe<br>

don't you weep pretty babe<br>

<br>

she's long gone with her red shoes on<br>

gonna need another loving babe<br>

<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

<br>

you and me and the devil makes three<br>

don't need no other lovin' babe<br>

<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

go to sleep little babe<br>

<br>

come lay bones on the alabaster stones<br>

and be my everlovin baby<br>

<br>
