[Verse 1]
Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home

[Chorus]
Sleep, little darling, do not cry
I will sing a lullaby
Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep, little darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
And I will sing a lullaby

[Verse 2]
Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Once there was a way
To get back home

[Chorus]
Sleep, little darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
