Eddy Arnold - Missouri Waltz lyrics

Hush a bye my baby

Slumber time is coming soon

Rest your head upon my breast

While mommie hums a tune.

The sandman is calling

When shadows are falling

While the soft breezes sigh

As in days long gone by.

Way down in Missouri

Where I heard this melody

When I was a little feller

On my mommie's knee.

The old folks were humming

the banjos were strumming

So sweet and low.

Hush a bye my baby

Go to sleep on mommie's knee

Journey back to Dixie Land

In dreams again with me.

It seems like your mommie

Was there once again

And the old folks were strumming

That same old refrain.

Way down in Missour

Where I learned this lullaby

When the stars were blinking

And the moon was standing high.

And I hear mommie clove

As in days long ago

Singing hush a bye

Singing hush a bye...
