De whip-'will's singin' to de moon, go sleep, my honey; He sing pow'ful mo'nful tune, go sleep, my honey. De day-bird's sleepin' in its nes'-it know it time fo' to take a res', An' it gwine to do its lebel bes', go sleep, my honey. 
Refrain. So safely sleep, my honey, do: dem twinklin' stars dun watch o'er you; An' de big white moon lubs dis little black coon, go sleep, my honey. 
de ole banjo am put away-go sleep, my honey; Its pickin's froo till anudder day, go sleep, my honey, Night-time hah sho'ly come to pass, de cricket's chirpin' in de grass, An' de ole mule's gone to sleep at las', go sleep, my honey, --Refrain. 
I heah de night-win' in de co'n, go sleep, my honey; Dere's a ghos' outside as sho's you's bo'n, go sleep, my honey: But he dassent come where we keep a light, an' de candle's bu'nin' all de night, So sink to res'-des' feel all right, go sleep, my honey.-Refrain.
