Lyrics: Olivier Deriviere Music: Olivier Deriviere Slumber, child, slumber, and dream, dream, dream Let the river carry you back to me Dream, my baby, 'cause Mama will be there in the mornin'
Last night under bright strange stars We left behind the men that caged you and me Runnin' toward a promise land Mama will be there in the mornin'
Trust nothin' and no one in this strange, strange land Be a mouse and do not use your voice River tore us apart, but I'm not too far 'cause Mama will be there in thΠ΅ mornin'
Do you still dream? Do you, do you sleep still? I fill my pockets full of stones and sink ThΠ΅ river will flow, and the sun will shine 'cause Mama will be there in the mornin'
Slumber, child, slumber, and dream, dream, dream The river murdered you and now it takes me Dream, my baby Mama will be there in the mornin'
You may not know me because I changed (Ooh, I changed) But mama will not stop lookin' for her baby (For her baby) When the river takes, the river gives And mama will search as long as she lives (She lives)
Dream Dream, my baby Mama will be there in the mornin' Mama will be there in the mornin'
