• The Babes in the Woods

Now don't you remember, a long time ago,
Those two little babies, their names I don't know?
They strayed away one bright summer's day,
These two little babies got lost on their way.

Chorus (after each verse):
Pretty babes in the wood, pretty babes in the wood,
Oh, don't you remember those babes in the wood?

Now the day being long and the night coming on
These two little babies laid under a stone.
They wept and they cried, they sobbed and they sighed;
These two little babies they laid down and died.

Now the robins so red, oh swiftly they sped,
They spread out their wide wings and over them laid.
And all the day long on the branches they thronged;
They sweetly did whistle and this was their song.
