Hush-a-bye, don't you cry
Go to sleep, my little baby
When you wake you shall have
All the pretty little horses
Dapples, grays, pintos and bays
All the pretty little horses

Way down yonder, in the meadow
Poor little baby crying mama
Birds and the butterflies flutter round her eyes
Poor little baby crying mama
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry
Go to sleep, my little baby

Hush-a-bye, don't you cry
Go to sleep, my little baby
When you wake you shall have
All the pretty little horses
Dapples, grays, pintos and bays
All the pretty little horses
