Gue-gue solingaie, balliez chimin-la

Sleep, sleep, don't you weep
Dry your tears a-while
Dream, dream, then you'll hear
the singing crocodile
Oh, dreaming, we'll go dreaming
Hush, now, baby don't you cry

Sail, sail, pretty babe
while the moon is low
Through bright bayou night
the dreamboats drifting slow
Oh, dreaming, we'll go dreaming
Hush, now, baby don't you cry
