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!"
