   RiverBoat Singers - Kentucky Lullaby   
   15 Sep 15 17:24:58   
   
   The album was Riverboat Days and the group was The Back Porch Majority.   
      
   When I was a little baby, long time ago   
    In my old Kentucky home   
   Way down upon the muddy River, down on the Ohio   
    In my old Kentucky home.   
    My cradle was a little boat, and sometimes when I'd cry;   
   My mammy  would rock my little boat and seeing me this lullaby   
      
   Hush now don't you cry and sail away   
   Sail away my little baby, sail away.   
   Sail away   
   Won't be long little captain you'll be all grown up one day   
   And you'll sail away   
      
   Wheelin' up to Cincinnati, down to Louisianne   
   Just like your daddy, you're gonna be a steamboat man.   
   Think you're mighty lucky; little boy from Kentucky   
   Close your eyes in sleep   
      
    Punkah Punkah Punkah Punkah   
   Punkah Punkah Punkah Punkah   
      
   Close your eyes in sleep.
