Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Go to sleepy, little baby
Go to sleepy, little baby
Lay your head upon my breast
Not the time to leave the nest
Little cuckoo, little baby
[Verse 2]
Purty blue eyes, little baby
Purty blue eyes, little baby
Let 'em close a little more
Soon enough the world is yours
Little cuckoo, little baby
[Verse 3]
Such a beauty, little baby
Soft as roses, pale as milk
Yellow hair as fine as silk
Little cuckoo, little baby
[Verse 4]
Such a shame, now, little baby
Such a shame, now, little baby
That you are not my own
But I'll nourish ya till you've grown
Little cuckoo, little baby
[Verse 5]
You'll be grown soon, little baby
You'll be grown soon, little baby
And go out into the world
If you see my darling girl
Treat her nice now, little baby
Little
[Verse 6]
Treat her nice now, little baby
[Verse 7]
Little cuckoo, little baby
Treat her nice now, little baby
[Verse 8]
Go to sleepy, little baby
Go to sleepy, little baby
Lay your head upon my breast
Not the time to leave the nest
Little cuckoo, little baby
Little cuckoo, little baby
[Verse 9]
Go to sleepy
Go to sleepy
Go to sleepy, little baby
