Sleep, Sleep, Little Black One
Sleep, sleep, little black one
Your mama is in the countryside
Little black one
Sleep, sleep, little black one
Your mama is in the countryside
Little black one
She will bring quails for you
She will bring many things for you
She will bring pork for you
She will bring many things for you
And if the black one doesn't sleep
The white devil will come
And bam!
He'll eat his little foot
Sleep, sleep, little black one
Your mama is in the countryside
Little black one
Working, working hard
Working yes
Working and not getting paid
Working yes
Working and coughing
Working yes
Working and in mourning
Working yes
For the little black one
Working yes
Not getting paid yes
Hard yes
Coughing yes
In mourning yes
Sleep, sleep, little black one
Your mama is in the countryside
Little black one
