Go to sleep, go to sleep

Go to sleep little baby

When you wake, right away

On the pretty little horses

Black and bay

Sorrel and gray

Whole heap of little horses

Black and gray

Sorrel and bay

Whole heap of little horses

Go to sleep, go to sleep

Go to sleep little baby

At least they took out the verse about crows pecking the eyes out of dead sheep. Sweet dreams, my darling.

When I first heard this, I thought it was "sorrow and grave" instead of "sorrel and gray." I was like, damn, Irish babies must be cut of some tough psychological cloth.

Mmmmm lovely cake, but nobody should eat cake and then get on a horse, least of all a little baby! It's okay?

This song was collected by the great musician Dallas Gladden (1895-1967). It's an Appalachian song of either Anglo Saxon or Celtic descent, but we don't know how far back it may really go. Fantastic it is, indeed and I can't wait to hear more gems like this from the incredible Chieftains, teamed up with the wonderful Patty Griffin!

This is a traditional african-american slave song, but these aren't the original lyrics.

@nadja1316 I think it's probably Irish.. Maybe. I'm not sure, though.
