Black Mountain Lullaby

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
