Annie Get Your Gun (Original 1946 Broadway Cast Recording) [2000 Remaster]

[ANNIE]
Behind the hill
There's a busy little still
Where your pappy's working in the moonlight
Your lovin' pa
Isn't quite within the law
So he's hiding there behind the hill
Bye bye, baby
Stop your yawning
Don't cry, baby
Day will be dawning
And when it does
From the mountain where he was
He'll be coming with a jug of moonshine
So count your sheep
Mamma's singing you to sleep
With the Moonshine Lullaby
Dream of pappy
Very happy
With his jug of mountain rye
So count your sheep
Mamma's singing you to sleep
With the Moonshine Lullaby
[MALE Chorus]
Ohh, ohh
Behind the hill
There's a busy little still
Where your pappy's working in the moonlight
Your lovin' pa
Isn't quite within the law
So he's hiding there behind the hill
[MALE Chorus & ANNIE]
Bye bye, baby
Stop your yawning
Don't cry, baby
Day will be dawning
[MALE Chorus]
And when it does
From the mountain where he was
He'll be coming with a jug of moonshine
Ohh
[ANNIE]
So count your sheep
Mamma's singing you to sleep
With the Moonshine Lullaby
Dream of pappy
Very happy
With his jug of mountain rye
So count your sheep
Mamma's singing you to sleep
With the Moonshine Lullaby
