Add to ORKGvoiceMountain Home, Ark. December 1963, Item 13 Collected from: Mrs. Nell Collie Collected by: Carolyn Wood Babes In The Wood My dears, do you know That a long, time ago Two little babes, whose name I don't know. Were stolen away On a bright summer day And lost in the woods So I have heard say And when it was night How sad was their plight; The sun it went down And the moon gave no light. They sighed and they sighed, And they bitterly cried; And the poor little babes, They laid down and died. And when they were dead, The robin so red, Brought pretty green leaves And over them spread; And all the night long, They sang this song; Poor babes in the wood, Poor babes in the wood.Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Counci...
