There's not a rose where'er I seek
As comely as my baby's cheek
There's not a comb of honey-bee
So full of sweets as babe to me
And it's so sweet
Sweet and a lullaby
There's not a star that shines on high
Is brighter than my baby's eye
There's not a boat upon the sea
Can dance as baby does for me
And it's so sweet
Sweet and a lullaby
And it's so sweet
Sweet and a lullaby
No silk was ever spun so fine
As is the hair of baby mine
My baby smells more sweet to me
Than smells in spring the elder tree
And it's so sweet
Sweet and a lullaby
And it's so sweet
Sweet and a lullaby
