State Anthem of Missouri • Missouri Waltz Instrumental • Anthems Of Nations • Link to download: • http://www.50states.com/ • Lyrics: • Hush-a-bye, ma baby, slumbertime is comin' soon; • Rest yo' head upon my breast while Mommy hums a tune; • The sandman is callin' where shadows are fallin', • While the soft breezes sigh as in days long gone by. • Way down in Missouri where I heard this melody, • When I was a little child upon my Mommy's knee; • The old folks were hummin'; their banjos were strummin'; • So sweet and low. • Strum, strum, strum, strum, strum, • Seems I hear those banjos playin' once again, • Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, • That same old plaintive strain. • Hear that mournful melody, • It just haunts you the whole day long, • And you wander in dreams back to Dixie, it seems, • When you hear that old time song. • Hush-a-bye ma baby, go to sleep on Mommy's knee, • Journey back to Dixieland in dreams again with me; • It seems like your Mommy is there once again, • And the old folks were strummin' that same old refrain. • Way down in Missouri where I learned this lullaby, • When the stars were blinkin' and the moon was climbin' high, • Seems I hear voices low, as in days long ago, • Singin' hush-a-bye. • Creative Commons Sourced from: • http://www.50states.com/disclaimer.htm • Under Creative Commons Guide Lines: • http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
