The Duhks - Black Mountain Lullaby lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Gather round my table

Say grace with me

In my little trailer

In the mountains of Wise county

Grief is mine forever

Sadness my story

Down in Inmate Holler

In the mountains of Wise County

(Chorus)

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye

(Verse)

Mountain drops are made of

Thousand power boulders

That brought down the hills and

On to our shoulders

Lord, let me bare him

For safe keeping

Lord, let me shield him

From the dearest Jeremy

(Chorus)

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye

(Instrumental break)

(Verse)

Momma will rock you

Till you are sleeping

Angels will hold you

In their keeping

I will grow a memory (?)

Make their money (?)

You're name will live here

In the mountains of Wise County

(Chorus)

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye, baby, baby bye

Little baby bye bye
