Once there was a way
  To get back home again
  Once there was a way
  To get back home
  Sleep pretty darlin' do not cry
  And I will sing a lullaby
  
  Golden slumbers fill your eyes
  Smiles to greet you when you rise
  Sleep pretty darlin' do not cry
  And I will sing a lullaby
  
  You never gave me your pillow
  You only gave me your invitation
  And in the middle of the celebration
  I pray now
  
  Hey boy, you got to carry that weight
  Carry that weight a long time
  Boy, you got to carry that weight
  Carry that weight a long time
  Boy, you got to carry that weight
  Carry that weight a long time
  
  And in the end,
  The love we take
  Is equal to the love we make......
