Bye-Lo-Baby

Go to sleep my little dolly,
Shut your eyes and don’t you cry,
I’ll not leave you, baby darling,
Till you have gone sleepy-bye.

Never mind you other dollies,
You all have your turn, you know,
You must all be good and patient,
Soon to dream-land you shall go.

Go to sleep my precious baby,
Let me think what mama sings,
All about the stars, and lammies,
By-lo-land and lots of things.

By-lo-by-lo hush my darling,
Don’t you cry now any more,
If you don’t behave much better
I will put you on the floor.

There, at last she’s shut her eyes up,
Polly Snooks, now come to me,
I know, when you’ve been so quiet,
Just how sleepy you must be.
