Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows

Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose

Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue

Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you

When he's there sleepin' in his little place

Think I see angels lookin' through the lace

When the dark and fallin', when the shadows creep

Then they comes on tiptoe to kiss him in his sleep

Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows

Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose

Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue

Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you

When the dark and fallin', when the shadows creep

Then they comes on tiptoe to kiss him in his sleep

Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows

Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose

Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue

Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you
