Missouri Waltz Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

Hush a bye my baby slumber time is coming soon 

Rest your head upon my breast while mommie hums a tune 

The sandman is calling when shadows are falling 

While the soft breezes sigh as in days long gone by 

Way down in Missouri where I heard this melody 

When I was a little feller on my mommie's knee 

The old folks were humming the banjos were strumming so sweet and low 

[ guitar ] 

Hush a bye my baby go to sleep on mommie's knee 

Journey back to Dixie Land in dreams again with me 

It seems like your mommie was there once again 

And the old folks were strumming that same old refrain 

Way down in Missouri where I learned this lullaby 

When the stars were blinking and the moon was standing high 

And I hear mommie clove as in days long ago singing hush a bye singing hush a bye
