The Chieftains & Patty Griffin - Whole Heap Of Little Horses

[Kingknag89]

Go to sleep, go to sleep Go to sleepy little baby When you wake, have some cake And ride them pretty little horses Black and a bay, sorrel and a gray A whole heap a little horses Black and a bay, sorrel and a gray A whole heap a little horses Little ole horse, little ole cow Amblin' around on the old hay mow Little ole horse, he took a chew Darned if I don't, said the ole cow too .... THERE WE GO THATS THE RIGHT LYRICS

•Wow.. just listen it for the first time.. but over and over.

This is Really beautiful!•

This song was collected by the great musician Dallas Gladden (1895-1967). It's an Appalachian song of either Anglo Saxon or Celtic descent, but we don't know how far back it may really go. Fantastic it is, indeed and I can't wait to hear more gems like this from the incredible Chieftains, teamed up with the wonderful Patty Griffin!

This is a traditional african-american slave song, but these aren't the original lyrics.

this Is the lyrics in full Go to sleep, go to sleep Go to sleepy little baby When you wake, have some cake And ride them pretty little horses Black and a bay, sorrel and a gray A whole heap a little horses Black and a bay, sorrel and a gray A whole heap a little horses Little ole horse, little ole cow Amblin' around on the old hay mow Little ole horse, he took a chew Darned if I don't, said the ole cow too

[nadja1316]

is this a well known english lullaby ?

[StillOBSESSED]

@nadja1316 I think it's probably Irish.. Maybe. I'm not sure, though.

[tervivjerbry]

wow-not in this life have i heard a more beautiful song --and sung by a more stunning woman!!

[woodscritter]

Know what you mean. First heard Patty, doing this on Chieftains album- that closed the deal.

Then I discovered what else she's done. Wow!

Can't wait to see her with Emmylou, Shawn, and Buddy.
