Lyrics Russian Lullaby (08-10-44) - Mary Lou Williams

Russian Lullaby (08-10-44)

Where the dreamy Volga flows
There’s a lonely Russian rose
Gazing tenderly
Down upon her knee
Where a baby’s brown eyes glisten
Listen
Every night you’ll hear her croon
A Russian lullaby
Just a little plaintive tune
When baby starts to cry
Rock-a-bye, my baby
Somewhere there may be
A land that’s free for you and me
And a Russian lullaby
