Slumber, child, slumber and dream, dream, dream
Let the river carry you back to me
Dream, my baby, 'cause
Mama will be there in the morning
Last night, under bright strange stars
We left behind the men that caged you and me
Running toward a promise land
Mama will be there in the morning
Trust nothing and no one in this strange, strange land
Be a mouse and do not use your voice
River tore us apart, but I'm not too far 'cause
Mama will be there in the morning
Do you still dream? Do you? Do you sleep still?
I fill my pockets full of stones and sink
The river will flow, and the sun will shine 'cause
Mama will be there in the morning
Slumber, child (slumber), slumber and dream, dream, dream
The river murdered you and now it takes me
Dream, my baby
Mama will be there in the morning
You may not know me because I changed (ooh, I changed)
But mama will not stop looking for her baby
When the river, takes the river gives
And mama will search as long as she lives
Dream, dream, my baby
Mama will be there in the morning
Mama will be there in the morning!
