Go to sleep you little baby,
Go to sleep you little baby,
Your momma's gone away
And your daddy's gonna stay;
don'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.
Your sweet little baby,
Your 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 loving baby.
Go to sleep little baby,
Go to sleep little baby,
You and me and the devil makes three;
don't need no other loving 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 loving baby.
-Oh Brother Where Art Thou-
