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