Mammy's Lullaby
S. Homer
"Swing low, swing low, sweet Chariot," low enough
To give some heav'nly rest
To dis poor restless little one
Dat sobs on Mammy's breast.
"Swing low, swing low, sweet Chariot," wid your load
Of angels snowy drest,
An' throw a dream out to de chile,
'Most 'sleep on Mammy's breast.
"Swing low, swing low, sweet Chariot," so dat
She May look into de nest,
An' see how sound her baby sleeps
At last on Mammy's breast!
"Swing low! Swing low!"
