tom t. hall - sing a little baby to sleep (ode to eddie) lyrics
[chorus:]
too, doo, dup, too
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
[verse 1:]
you’re just a little baby boy
six months old, lying in your mama’s lap
i’m sittin’ here thinkin’ of a song
i could sing to get you to take a nap
you were born on the part of the river of life where
the water is troubled and deep
this day and time there are not many songs
to sing a little baby to sleep
[chorus]
[verse 2:]
i search my mind for a proper subject
to set down the reason and rhyme
and i got to thinking it might have been better
to be born at some other time
i know you’re tired and i know you’re weary
and i don’t like to see you weep
but there just don’t seem to be any songs
going to sing a little baby to sleep
[chorus]
[verse 3:]
i’ll rock your cradle and your mama will croon
that’s all the comfort we know
you need a song you can keep on singing
’cause you’ve got a long way to go
faith writes the words and love writes the music
and hope can establish the beat
your generation might know a song
to sing a little baby to sleep
[chorus]
