Did-n't leave no-bo-dy but the ba-by 



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 sweet little baby 
You're 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 the red shoes on 
Gonna meet another lovin` baby 

Go to sleep you little baby 
Go to sleep you little 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

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
