Won't you tuck me to sleep in my old tucky home

Cover me with dixie skies

And leave me there alone

Just let the sun kiss my cheeks every morn

Like the kissing I've been

Missing from my mammy since I'm gone

I ain't had a bit of rest

Oh since I left my mammy's nest

I can always rest the best in her loving arms

Oh tuck me to sleep in my old tucky home

Let me lay there

Stay there never no more to roam

Oh tuck me to sleep in my old tucky home

Cover me with dixie skies

And leave me there alone

Just let the sun kiss my cheeks every morn

Like the kissing I've been

Missing from my mammy since I'm gone

Oh I ain't had a bit of rest

Since I left my mammy's nest

I can always rest the best in her loving arms

So tuck me to sleep in my old tucky home

Let me lay there

Stay there never no more to roam
