Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby
Your mama's gone away and your daddy's gone to stay
Didn't leave nobody but the baby
Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby
Everybody's gone in the cotton and the corn
Didn't leave nobody but the baby
You're a sweet little baby
You're a sweet little baby
Honey in the rock and the sugar don't stop
Gonna' bring a bottle to the baby
Don't you weep pretty baby
Don't you weep pretty baby
She's long gone with her red shoes on
Gonna' need another lovin' baby
Don't you weep pretty baby
Don't you weep pretty baby
You and me and the Devil makes three
Don't need no other lovin' baby
Go to sleep you little baby
Go to sleep you little baby
Come and lay your bones on the alabaster stones
And be my ever-lovin' baby
