When de night time come, de li’l boy holler Kase he ‘fraid o’ de dark, an’ he scrooch up nigh/To his good ole mammy, an’ he wouldn’t take a dollar/Fo’ his place, fo’ his place when de Sandman’s a stoopin’ frum de sky./Oh de wind say “Woo”/An de owl say “To who”/An he scrooches up to mammy, an’ he scrooches up to mammy/When de blaze, when de blaze burns blue./Oh, de stumps look tall an’ de wind soun’s skeery/An de li’l boy sniggle down in my lap,/Kase be bogie man’s a nigh an’ his eyes am bleary,/An he’s strong as a lion an’ bigger n’ yo’ pap./Oh, de wind say “Woo”/An’ de owl say “To who”/An’ he scrooches up to mammy, an’ he scrooches up to mammy/When de blaze, when de blaze burns blue./Oo, oo, oo! | |
