Yodeling My Babies To Sleep

Wilf Carter

Hi, Greg. . . Here are a couple of Wilf Carter (Montana Slim) songs that I particularly like. I love Wilf's pure, simple yodeling style, and I've included the yodeling as I transcribed it from his recordings. YODELING MY BABIES TO SLEEP Wilf Carter (Montana Slim) peppy ? time I want a sweet wife -- with blue eyes so bright That will night. Not one -- with a Sheik ev-'ry night of the week While I sleep. She goes -- to the show-when the bright lights are low, She street. While I'm left a-lone -- with the babies at home Just a sleep. YODEL With a HO dee d'LEH-ee, HI a'dee d'LEH-ee HO dee d'LEH-ee, HI a'dee d'LEH-ee OO d'deedle-OH sleep. If I asked her to go -- with me to a show There's a meet. I get -- me own break-fast and work all day long While she sweet. Think I'll get a div-orce - trade her off for a horse. What she's know. Then the ba-bies and I - could go riding by And meet. YODEL As you all know - sweet ba-bies soon grow To throng. But what tickles me is when those ba-bies, you see, Join song. Can you picture me a ba-by on each knee When queer. My wife says I'm fine, handing her same old line "You're dear". end with YODEL Alice Hanks (Allen) A.K.A., a SaddleBag [email protected]
