Lullaby Lady - 1933

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 26 Feb 2002

The songs of old are songs of gold,
but to me they're past and gone;
For a voice that thrilled today is stilled,
But the mem'ry lingers on:

Little Lullaby Lady from Lullaby Lane,
I'm dreaming of your melodies;
Ev'ry beautiful note is a sweeter refrain,
than bird songs from up in the trees;
Mother dear, how I miss you,
the older I grow,
My cradle days call me in vain;
How my heart would rejoice,
just to hear your dear voice,
Little Lady from Lullaby Lane.

Little Lullaby Lady from Lullaby Lane,
I'm dreaming of your melodies;
Ev'ry beautiful note is a sweeter refrain,
than bird songs from up in the trees;
Mother dear, how I miss you,
the older I grow,
My cradle days call me in vain;
How my heart would rejoice,
just to hear your dear voice,
Little Lady from Lullaby Lane.

When night draws near, I seem to hear
A sweet song of long ago,
It was sung to me at mother's knee,
by the firelight's cheerful glow.

Little Lullaby Lady from Lullaby Lane,
I'm dreaming of your melodies;
Ev'ry beautiful note is a sweeter refrain,
than bird songs from up in the trees;
Mother dear, how I miss you,
the older I grow,
My cradle days call me in vain;
How my heart would rejoice,
just to hear your dear voice,
Little Lady from Lullaby Lane.

Little Lullaby Lady from Lullaby Lane,
I'm dreaming of your melodies;
Ev'ry beautiful note is a sweeter refrain,
than bird songs from up in the trees;
Mother dear, how I miss you,
the older I grow,
My cradle days call me in vain;
How my heart would rejoice,
just to hear your dear voice,
Little Lady from Lullaby Lane.
