Didn't Leave Nobody But The Baby Lyrics


go to sleep little babe
go to sleep little babeyour momma's gone away and your daddy's gonna stay
didn't leave nobody but the babygo to sleep little babe
go to sleep little babeeverybody's gone in the cotton and the corn
didn't leave nobody but the babyyou're a sweet little babe
you're a sweet little babehoney in the rock and the sugar don't stop
gonna bring a bottle to the babydon't you weep pretty babe
don't you weep pretty babeshe's long gone with her red shoes on
gonna need another loving babego to sleep little babe
go to sleep little babeyou and me and the devil makes three
don't need no other lovin' babego to sleep little babe
go to sleep little babecome lay bones on the alabaster stones
and be my everlovin baby

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Gillian Welch explains that Emmylou Harrisand Alison Krauss took delight in making her sing the highest part in their trio, "Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby", when both Harris and Krauss have higher-register voices.
Harris sang the bass part on the song, which is unusual for the singer, who is well known for her role as the "angel" vocalist in duets and backing vocals with other artists.
