Paul Robeson - Ma Curly Headed Baby Lyrics

Oh, my baby, my curly-headed baby,We'll sit below da sky and sing a songTo the moo- oo-oo oo-oon.Oh, my baby, my little darkie baby,Your daddy's in da cotton field,Workin' for the fo- oo-oo oo-od.So, la-la la-la la-la lullaby-by.Does ya want da moon to play wid?All da stars to run away wid?They'll come if you you don't cry.So, la-la la-la la-la lullaby-by.In da mammy's arms be creepin',An' soon you'll be a-sleepin'.Laa-laa la-la la-la la-la lullaby.Oh, my baby, my curly-headed baby,I'll dance you fast asleep and love you soAs I si- ii-ii ii-ing.Oh, my baby, my little darkie baby,Jus' tuck your head like little bird,Below its mammy's wi- ii-ii ii-ing.So, la-la la-la la-la lullaby-by.Does ya want da moon to play wid?All da stars to run away wid?They'll come if you you don't cry.So, la-la la-la la-la lullaby-by.In da mammy's arms be creepin',An' soon you'll be a-sleepin'.Laa-laa la-la la-la la-la lullaby.
