So, a-hush pretty little, baby
Don t a, a-you cry
One-a-these, a-one-a-these
A-one-a-these mornin s come up, early
Ya gonna rise

Then you spread yo little wings

An-a take to the sky-la-la-la-lie

Until a-that mornin , you re a free maid
There s a-nothin a-gon harm you, girl
With a dombie , an a-daddy standin by

Come a little la-a-a-ate
Payin up the dues
Give you the blues
I know, my little darlin
I love you, so
An a-never gonna let you go
Lord!
La, la-la-lie
Tell-a lie, tell-a-lie
Then another, another lie
Another lie, another lie

Cannot save the day, yeah, girl
Hush, pretty little baby

Little darlin , I see a girl
No hope child, I, I, said a-right now
A-listen, baby

Don t-a, pretty baby child
A-don t let-a tear, don t let a tear
Fall from yo eyes!

Cause she paid her dues with blues
Baby child, I said a-right now
Don t let a tear, don t let a tear

Pretty baby, but I sympathize, now

Baby, help you through, don t fall
Now, settle back down
Little girl, Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl
Little darling do not let a little tear
Fall-a from your eye-hi-hi-hi-eye.
Whoa!
