Johnny Cash - Missouri Waltz lyrics
[Johnny Cash - Missouri Waltz lyrics]
Hush a bye my baby slumber
Time is coming soon
Rest your head on mommie's breast
While daddy hums a tune
Are the old folks were humming
The banjos were strumming
And the soft breezes sigh as
In days long gone by
Way down in Missouri where
I heard this melody
When I was a little fellow
On my mommie's knee
The old folks were humming the banjos
Were strumming so sweet and low
Hush a bye my baby go
To sleep on daddy's knee
Journey back to Dixie Land in
Dreams again with me
Oh, it seems like your daddy
Was there once again
And the old folks were strumming
That same old refrain
Way down in Missouri when
I heard this lullaby
While the stars were blinking and
The moon was shining high
Are the old folks were humming the banjos
Were strumming so sweet and low
Time is coming soon
Rest your head on mommie's breast
While daddy hums a tune
Are the old folks were humming
The banjos were strumming
And the soft breezes sigh as
In days long gone by
Way down in Missouri where
I heard this melody
When I was a little fellow
On my mommie's knee
The old folks were humming the banjos
Were strumming so sweet and low
Hush a bye my baby go
To sleep on daddy's knee
Journey back to Dixie Land in
Dreams again with me
Oh, it seems like your daddy
Was there once again
And the old folks were strumming
That same old refrain
Way down in Missouri when
I heard this lullaby
While the stars were blinking and
The moon was shining high
Are the old folks were humming the banjos
Were strumming so sweet and low
