Ozark Mountain Lullaby
In the cradle deep
Baby sleeps by the warm soft firelight
Mama's singing
Daddy's humming
The Ozark Mountain lullaby
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lou, lou, lou lou, lou, la
Mama's singing
Daddy's humming
The Ozark Mountain lullaby
Mama's fixing up some supper
Daddy's working up a sweat
'Cause anytime the creek might rise
And the crops ain't all in yet
Sister's got her chores to do
And Lord knows I've got mine
We rest our head when the day is ended
To the Ozark Mountain lullaby
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lou, lou, lou lou, lou, la
Mama's singing
Daddy's humming
The Ozark Mountain lullaby
The Lord smiles on our country home
The love that's not here to buy
And while we children grow
We learn to know that love is the tie that binds
Someday when we're on our own
With a family by and by
We'll be singing to our children
The Ozark Mountain lullaby
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Lou, lou, lou lou, lou, la
Mama's singing
Daddy's humming the Ozark Mountain lullaby
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
