Al Jolson

Mighty Lak' a Rose
Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows;Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose!Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue,Makes you think that heaven is comin' close to you.When he's there a-sleepin' in his little place,Think I see the angels looking thro' the lace.When the dark is falling, when the shadows creep,Then they come on tip-toe to kiss him in his sleep.Sweetest little fellow, everybody knows,Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose!Lookin' at his mammy with eyes so shiny blue,Makes you think that heaven is comin' close to you.
