Close yoh dreamy eyes an’ lay yoh head on Mammy’s breast,/Stahs ah in de skies an birds ah sleepin’ in de nest,/Nighttime is heah, honey don’t feah,/Yoh on Mammy’s ahm;/Great big yallah moon a shinin’ down upon de stream,/Mammy’s little coon will soon be sleep/Des like a flow’h kissed by de show’h when rain drops come down from de sky/Yoh Mammy’s pickaninny, de finest an de best,/De pride of old Virginny/So slumbah, my honey, an’ rest/Go to sleep,/Go to sleep. | |
