There's a Cradle In Caroline - The Broadway Bellhops Bix Beiderbecke Frank Trumbauer
There's a cradle in Caroline
A bough in a tree a bowing to me
There's a cradle that I call mine
A carpet of green you know what I mean
And while stretchin' out upon the lawn the heavens kissed
Why even in my sleep I dream the way of what I've missed
There's a blanket of stars that shine
They beckon a guest a sheltering nest
There's a cradle in Caroline
Calling me back calling me back to rest
