Lyrics:

Don't Cry My Baby
don't Cry All The While
don't Cry My Baby
just Give Me A Smile
seen My Daddy Die In The War
seen My Mamma Die Cryin' For

ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
a-Ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing

they Call Me A Hounddog
they Call Me A Swine
it's All Because Of My Color
for Their War Though I'm Fine

ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
a-Ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
dee Dum Dee Dum

they're Talkin' 'bout Freedom
of Religion And Race
but If You're A Negro
they Slap You In The Face

ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
a-Ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing

so What's The Use Fightin' For
that Sacred Democracy
when Ku Klux Klan Murd'rers
are Going Scot-Free

ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
a-Ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing

but I'm Still Happy
so Don't Cry, My Babe
together We'll Strife For
bein' Free People Some Day

ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing
a-Ring-A A-Ring-A
but I've Got To Sing

dum Dah Dah Dee Yay-Ay
dee Dum Dah Dah Dee Day
dee Dum Dah Dah Dee Day-Ay
dee Dum Dah Dah Dee Yay
