Mom, where is that sweet milk?
Song

If I sit down, oh my, if I sit down on the black steamer
Song
1. If I sit down, chuh, if I sit down on the black steamer,To the Czech Republic, chuh I won't get out of it.I won't get out, I'll write my baby a sad, mournful letter,I'm sick, my heart hurts so much it can't be cured. 2. Dry grass, chuh, dry grass no longer grows leaves,Cannonb...
