Comedian Harmonists


My little black dove
Curled up in your nest of love
The moon is a charm
To keep you from harm
Asleep at my breast

The stars all alight
To watch over you all night
The river of sleep
Blows gentle and deep
To rock you to rest

So sleep little one
Till darkness is by
Sleep till the sun
Rises up in the sky

My little black dove
Curled up in your nest of love
And go to your rest
Asleep at my breast
My little black dove

My little black dove
Curled up in your nest of love
And go to your rest
Asleep at my breast
My little black dove

Sleep little black dove
Sleep black dove sleep
Sleep black dove sleep
