LYRICS:
hush a bye, don't you cry
go to sleep my little baby
when you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses
blacks and bays, dappled-and-grays
all the pretty little horses
way down yonder, on the green
poor little baby crying mama
birds and butterflies round his eyes
poor little baby crying mama
hush a bye, don't you cry
go to sleep my little baby
when you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses
blackened days, gone away
all the pretty little horses
hush a bye, don't you cry
go to sleep my little baby
very lovely, you have a nice voice

It was an Appalachian lullaby wasn't it?

I would love a copy of you singing this. Have you thought about or already made a CD? You would be famous in minutes. Such a sweet, calming, care-free voice as yours is needed in this crazy world.

Thank you for this. I've been singing this to my children for 14 years. It's our special lullaby. Your version is absolutely beautiful.
