Black Mountain Lullaby Lyrics

Gather round my table

Say grace with me
In my little trailer

In the mountains of wise county

Grief is mine forever

Sadness my story

Down in inman holler

In the mountains of wise county

Bye baby baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye baby baby bye

My little baby bye bye
Mountaintops are made of 1,000 pound boulders

That roll down the hills and on to our shoulders

Lord let me bear it for safe keeping

Lord let me shield it from my dearest jeremy

Bye baby baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye baby baby bye
My little baby bye bye

Mama will rock you til you are sleeping

Angels will hold you in their keeping

Powerful men will make their money

Your name will live here in the mountains of wise county

Bye baby baby bye

Little baby bye bye

Bye baby baby bye

My little baby bye bye

My little baby bye bye
