Marideth Sisco

Missouri Waltz

Lyricist:Frederick Logan, James Shannon

Hush-a-bye, my baby, slumber time is coming soon
Rest your head upon my breast while mama hums a tune
The sandman is calling when shadows are falling
While the soft breezes sigh as in days long gone by

Way down in Missouri where I heard this melody
When I was just a little baby on my mama's knee
The old folks were humming, the banjos were strumming
So sweet and low

Hush-a-bye, my baby, go to sleep on mama's knee
Journey back to these old hills in dreams again with me
It seems like your mama was there once again
And the old folks were strumming that same old refrain

Way down in Missouri where I heard this lullaby
When the stars were blinking and the moon was shining high
And I hear mama calling as in days long ago
Singing hush-a-bye
