Mighty Lak' a Rose (78 RPM Version)
Sweetest little feller
Everybody knows
Don't know what to call him
But he's mighty like a rose
Lookin' at his mammy
Eyes so shiny blue
Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you
When he's there sleeping in his little place
Think I see the angels lookin' through the lace
When the dark is fallin'
When the shadows creep
Then they come on tip-toe
To kiss him in his sleep
Sweetest little feller
Everybody knows
Don't know what to call him
But he's mighty like a rose
Lookin' at his mammy
Eyes so shiny blue
Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you
Everybody knows
Don't know what to call him
But he's mighty like a rose
Lookin' at his mammy
Eyes so shiny blue
Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you
When he's there sleeping in his little place
Think I see the angels lookin' through the lace
When the dark is fallin'
When the shadows creep
Then they come on tip-toe
To kiss him in his sleep
Sweetest little feller
Everybody knows
Don't know what to call him
But he's mighty like a rose
Lookin' at his mammy
Eyes so shiny blue
Make you think that heaven is comin' close to you
