HUSH LITTLE BABY

HUSH, LITTLE BABY, DON'T SAY A WORD,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A MOCKINGBIRD,
AND IF THAT MOCKINGBIRD DON'T SING,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A DIAMOND RING,
AND IF THAT DIAMOND RING RINGS TURNS BRASS,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A  LOOKING GLASS,
AND IF THAT LOOKING GLASS GETS BROKE,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A BILLY GOAT,
AND IF THAT BILLY GOAT DOESN'T PULL,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A CART AND BULL.
AND IF THAT CART AND BULL TURN OVER,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A DOG NAME ROVER.
AND IF THAT DOG NAMED ROVER WON'T BARK,
MAMA'S GONNA BUY YOU A HORSE AND CART.
AND IF THAT HORSE AND CART FALL DOWN,
WELL YOU'LL STILL BE THE SWEETEST BABY IN TOWN

AND GRACE MYFEAR RELIEVED
HOW PRECIOUS DID THAT GRACE APPER
THE HOUR I FIRST BELIVED

THROUGH MANY DANGERS, TOILS AND SNARES
I HAVE ALREADY COME
T' IS GRACE HATH BROUGHT ME SAFE THUS FAR]
AND GRACE WILL LEAD ME HOME

HOW SWEET THE NAME OF JESUS SOUND
IN A BELIEVER'S EAR

AND DRIVES AWAY HIS FEAR

AND ALL THE WORLD GO FREE?
NO, THERE'S A CROSS FOR EVERYONE
AND THERE'S A CROSS FOR ME


GOLDES SLUMBERS

GOLDEN SLUMBERS KISS YOUR EYES.
SMILES AWAIT YOU WHEN YOU RISE.

WHILE OVER YOU A WATCH I'LL KEEP.

AND I WILL SING A LULLABY.



TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR

TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR
HOW I WONDER WHAT YOU ARE!
UP ABOVE THE WORLD SO HIGH,
LIKE A DIAMOND IN THE SKY.

WHEN THE BLAZING SUN IS GONE,
WHEN HE NOTHING SHINES UPON,
WHEN YOU SHOWER LITTLE LIGHT,
TWINKLE TWINKLE, ALL THE NIGHT.

THEN THE TRAVELER IN THE DARK,
THANKS YOU FOR YOUR TINY SPARK,
HE COULD NOT SEE WHICH WAY TO GO,
IF YOU DID NOT TWINKLE SO.


DAY IS DONE

DAY IS DONE.
GONE THE SUN,
FROM THE LAKE, FROM THE HILLS, FROM THE SKY.
ALL IS WELL, SAFELY REST.
GOD IS NIGH.


LITTLE BOY BLUE


LITTLE BOY BLUE, COME BLOW YOUR HORN,
THE SHEEP'S IN THE MEADOW, THE COW'S IN THE CORN
WHERE IS THE BOY WHO LOOKS AFTER THE SHEEP?
HE'S UNDER THE HAYSTACK, FAST ASLEEP.


ALL THE PRETTY LITTLE HORSE
HUSH- BY, DON'T YOU CRY,
GO TO SLEEP A LITTLE BABY .
WHEN YOU WAKE YOU SHALL HAVE
ALL THE PRETTY LITTLE HORSES.

BLACK AND BAYS,DAPPLES AND GRAYS,
COACH AND SIX A LITTLE HORSES,
WHEN YOU WAKE YOU SHALL HAVE
ALL THE PRETTY LITTLE HORSES.

HUSH- BY, DON'T YOU CRY,
GO TO SLEEP A LITTLE BABY .
WHEN YOU WAKE YOU SHALL HAVE
ALL THE PRETTY LITTLE HORSES.


SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW

SOMEWHERE, OVER THE RAINBOW, WAY UP HIGH
THERE'S A LAND THAT I HEARD OF ONCE IN A LULLABY


SOMEWHERE, OVER THE RAINBOW, SKIES ARE BLUE
AND THE DREAMS THAT YOU DARE TO DREAM REALLY DO COME TRUE

SOME DAY I'LL WISH UPON A STAR
AND WAKE UP WHERE THE CLOUDS ARE FAR BESIDE ME
WHERE TROUBLES MELT LIKE LEMON DROPS
AWAY ABOVE THE CHIMNEY TOPS
THAT'S WHERE YOU'LL FIND ME.

SOMEWHERE, OVER THE RAINBOW, BLUEBIRDS FLY
BIRDS FLY OVER THE RAINBOW
WHY THEN, OH CAN'T I?

IF HAPPY LITTLE BLUEBIRDS FLY
BEYOND THE RAINBOW
WHY, OH WHY, CAN'T I?


CLEMENTINE

IN A CAVERN, IN A CANYON
EXCAVATING FOR A MINE
LIVED A MINER, FORTY-NINER
AND HIS DOUGHTER, CLEMETINE


OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

DROVE SHE DUCKLINGS TO THE WATER
OH, MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

DROVE SHE DUCKLINGS TO THE WATER 
EVERY MORNING JUST AT NINE
HIT HER FOOT AGAINST A SPLINTER
FELL INTO THE FOAMING BRINE

OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

 RUBY LIPS ABOVE THE WATER
BLOWING BUBBLES SOFT AND FINE
BUT ALAS, I WAS NO SWIMMER
SO I LOST MY CLEMENTINE


OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

THEN THE MINER, FORTY-NINER
SOON BEGAN TO PEAK AND PINE
THOUGHT HE OUGHTA JOIN HIS DAUGHTER
NOW HE'S WITH HIS CLEMENTINE

OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

THERE'S A CHURCHYARD ON THE HILLSIDE
WHERE THE FLOWERS GROW AND TWINE
THERE GROW ROSES, MONGST THE POSIES
FERTILIZED BY CLEMENTINE

OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

 IN MY DREAMS SHE STILL DOTH HAUNT ME
ROBED IN GARLAND SOAKED IN BRINE
THOUGH IN LIFE USED TO HUG HER
NOW SHE'S DEAD, L DRAW THE LINE


OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

NOW YOU SOUTS MAY LEARN THE MORAL
OF THIS LITTLE TALE OF MINE
ARTIFICIAL RESIRATION
WOULD HAVE SAVED MY CLEMENTINE

OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE

HOW I MISSED HER,HOW I MISSED HER
HOW I MISSED MY CLEMENTINE
TILL I KISSED HER LITTLE SISTER
AND FORGOT MY CLEMENTINE

OH, MY DARLING,OH,MY DARLING
OH,MY DARLING CLEMENTINE
YOU ARE LOST AND GONE FOREVER
DREADFUL SORRY, CLEMENTINE
