Lullaby
Once upon a time There was a pretty fly He had a pretty wife This pretty fly But one night She flew away Flew away She had two pretty children But one night These two pretty children Flew away Flew away Into the sky Into the moon
A haunting lullaby, opening the scene at 0:30. The Lullaby, appearing later in the scene at 3:50, is sung by Kitty White. Walter Schumann, the composer, reportedly personally discovered her in a nightclub. The scene is taken from The Night of the Hunter (1955), a cult film directed by Charles Laughton and starring an unforgettable Robert Mitchum. And a child shall lead them.
