Verse 1

Oh dear, I'm so tired and so lonesome

I wonder why mommy don't come

She told me to shut up my blue eyes

And before I woke up she'd be home

Verse 2

She said she was going to see Grandma

Who lives by the river so wide

And I guess my mommy's feeling bad

And perhaps she won't

be home tonight

Verse 3
D 
G 
So I guess I'll go down and meet daddy
A 
D 
Perhaps he has stopped at the store
G 
It's a great big store full of bottles
A 
And I wish he wouldn't
D 
go there anymore

Verse 4

So out in the night with the baby

Her little heart beating with pride

'Til her tired feet entered the gin palace

With music all radiant with light

Verse 5

Oh daddy, she cried as she reached him

I think that the music's so sweet

But it's almost suppertime, daddy

Little Blossom wants something to eat

Verse 6
D 
G 
A moment his blurred eyes gazed wildly
A 
D 
Down into her face sweet and fair
G 
And as the demon possessed him
A 
He grasped at the back of a chair
D 

Verse 7
G 
A moment, a second was over
A 
D 
He lifted her fair golden head
G 
A moment the baby's left trembled
A 
D 
Then poor little Blossom was dead
