Oh, well, they eat all the children when they wouldn't be good
Lay down my dear brothers, lay down and take your rest
I love you, but Jesus love you the best
I love you, but Jesus love you the best
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Walking in Jerusalem just like John, good night
Won't you lay your head upon your Savior's breast
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Lay down my dear brothers, lay down and take your rest
I love you, but Jesus love you the best
Tell 'B' for the beast at the ending of the wood
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Tell 'A' for the ark, that wonderful boat
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
And I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Won't you lay your head upon your Savior's breast
I remember right well, I remember right well
