Sleep Tight Little Baby

Lucy...it's time for bed now, and you need your rest

So lie down in your coffin dear, and sleep tight

I'll wake you when daddy's here, alright?

No no don't...d-d-don't cry little girl

Little girl from head to toe

Deep into the ground you go...down...down!

Sleep tight little baby, sleep tight below the ground

Sleep tight little baby, nowhere to run around



Oh...the worms, oh...the worms



Is that your daddy...your daddy?



Sleep tight little baby, sleep tight below the ground

Sleep tight little baby, nowhere to run around



Oh...the worms, oh...the worms



Is that your daddy...your daddy?



And as i'm waiting by the cemetery gates

For her father to show

Something's pounding at my head

It's like i...i, i can still hear her screaming



Oh lucy, i'm doing all this for you

Oh lucy, i didn't mean to, i didn't want to

But you've got to



Sleep tight little baby, sleep tight below the ground

Sleep tight little baby, nowhere to run around



Oh...the worms, oh...the worms



Is that your daddy...your daddy?



So you came at last ? let me see your heart

Let me see your face, you son of a bitch



I see a baby crying, i see a little tear

Oh yeah, i know you're trying

But you can't stop the fear...daddy!



If you ever want to see your little girl again

You better do as i say

Dear mr. mayor, welcome to my humble tomb

Come inside, you know you have to
