Once there was a way
to get back homeward
Once there was a way
to get back home
Sleep pretty darling
Do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Golden slumbers fill
your eyes
Smiles awake you when
you rise
Sleep pretty darling
Do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Once there was a way
to get back homeward
Once there was a way
to get back home
Sleep pretty darling
Do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Boy
You're gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy
You're gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
I never give you my pillow
I only send you my invitations
And in the middle of the
celebrations I break down
Boy
You're gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy
You're gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
