ted egan – arnhem land lullaby lyrics
[intro]
d-ck [?] and i wrote this next song – arnhem land lullaby
half in english, and half in [?] from arnhem land
[chorus]
goodnight, little children
time to go to bed
hush, my little baby
rest your little head
mother’s here beside you
father’s with you too
goodnight little children
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
[bridge]
ooh-la-loo-la-loo-la
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
goodnight little children
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
[refrain]
[?]
[verse 1]
noises in the darkness
need not worry you
possums are out working
frogs are croaking too
bok bok the brown pheasant
molok the wise old owl
curlers cry like babies
and lonely dingoes howl
[chorus]
so goodnight little children
time to go to bed
hush, my little baby
rest your little head
mother’s here beside you
father’s with you too
goodnight little children
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
[verse 2]
dancers in the firelight
songman sings a song
didgeridoo is droning
through the night so long
stars are bright above you
moon beams through the trees
each one tells the story
of how we came to be
[refrain]
[?]
[bridge]
ooh-la-loo-la-loo-la
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
ooh-la-loo-la-loo-la
ooh-la-loo-la-loo
[refrain]
