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 awake you when you rise Sleep pretty darling do not cry And I wil 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 Golden Slumbers fill your eyes Smiles awake you when you rise Sleep pretty darling do not cry And I wil sing a lullaby Oh, you're gonna carry that weight Carry that weight a long time Oh, you're gonna carry that weight Carry that weight a long time
