What'll I do with the Baby-O?
Traditional Song
(Chorus)
What'll I do with the baby-o?
What'll I do with the baby-o?
What'll I do with the baby-o?
If she won't go to sleepy-o?
Wrap her up in calico
Wrap her up in calico
Wrap her up in calico
Send her to her Mommy-o.
(Chorus)
Wrap her up in a tablecloth
Wrap her up in a tablecloth
Wrap her up in a tablecloth
Throw her up in a fodder-loft.
(Chorus)
Tell your daddy when he gets home,
Tell your daddy when he gets home,
Tell your daddy when he gets home,
I'll give Old Blue your chicken bone.
(Chorus)
Pull her toes and tickle her chin
Pull her toes and tickle her chin
Pull her toes and tickle her chin
Throw her in the county bin.
(Chorus)
Dance her north and dance her south,
Dance her north and dance her south,
Dance her north and dance her south,
Pour a little moonshine in her mouth.
(Chorus)
Every time the baby cries,
Stick my finger in the baby's eye!
That's what we'll do with the baby-o
That's what we'll do with the baby-o!

Que ferons-nous du bébé-o ?
Que ferons-nous du bébé-o ?
Que ferons-nous du bébé-o
Si elle ne veut pas s'endormir-o ?
L'envelopper dans du tissu,
L'envelopper dans du tissu,
L'envelopper dans du tissu,
L'envoyer à sa maman-o.
(Refrain)
L'envelopper dans une nappe,
L'envelopper dans une nappe,
L'envelopper dans une nappe,
La jeter dans un fenil.
(Refrain)
Dire à ton père quand il rentrera,
Dire à ton père quand il rentrera,
Dire à ton père quand il rentrera,
Que je donnerai ton os de poulet à Mirza.
(Refrain)
Lui tirer les orteils et lui chatouiller le menton,
Lui tirer les orteils et lui chatouiller le menton
Lui tirer les orteils et lui chatouiller le menton
La jeter à la décharge de la r&eacu
Thanks!
Thanks!
