Appalachian Lullaby Lyrics

Well I love my baby
Sweet and fair
You've got the sky in your eye
The sun in your hair
I rock you to sleep most every night
And sing you this song
While I hold you tight

Sleep my baby
The angels keep you from harm
And your father above
Cradles you in his love
Safe and warm
Sleep my baby
Nestled in your mummy’s arms
Sleep my baby
The angels keep you from harm

My baby
You'll be sleep-in' soon
Kissed by the golden stars and moon
I have just one wish for you
May your every dream come true

Sleep my baby
The angels keep you from harm
And your father above
Cradles you in his love
Safe and warm
Sleep my baby
Nestled in your mummy’s arms
Sleep my baby
The angels keep you from harm
