Once there was a way to get back homeward Once there was a way to get back home Sleep pretty darling, do not cry, and I will sing a lullaby Golden Slumbers fill your eyes Smiles await you when you rise Sleep pretty darling, do not cry, and I will sing a lullaby Once there was a way to get back homeward Once there was a way, to get back home Sleep pretty darling, do not cry, and I will sing a lullaby Boy, you're gonna carry that weight Carry that weight a long time Boy, you're gonna carry that weight Carry that weight a long time (Repeat)
