There's a kind of light shining down through the trees |
|
There's a bright moon light shining down through the trees |
|
And I know my baby's coming down to be with me. |
|
She got a basket on her arm, my love is high |
|
She got a basket on her arm, my love is high |
|
Now when she opens up the basket things are gonna be alright |
|
I hear my baby calling |
|
My, my, my, my, my, my baby goodnight |
|
Well, well |
|
My, my, my, my, my, my baby goodnight |
|
Yeah, yeah |
|
Oh, baby goodnight. |
|
I hear that bird a calling, singing like a whippoorwill |
|
Well, well well |
|
I hear that bird a calling, singing like a whippoorwill |
|
And when I hear that bird a calling, it gives my baby such a thrill |
|
And I think |
|
I called my baby |
|
My, my, my, my, my, my baby goodnight |
|
Well, well, well |
|
My, my, my, my, my, my baby goodnight |
|
OoooooohOh baby goodnight |
|
And I don't believe you heard me |
|
My, my, talking about, talking about baby my light |
|
My, my, my, my, talking about baby my light |
|
Oh, baby goodnight |
|
And I'm talking to the preacher |
