We love that movie and have watched it at least a dozen times, lol. We have
the CD too. That is my favorite song. My guess is back then they gave sugar
water to babies. As far as when the song was written, I personally don't
know, but we have a friend who is into old songs. I will ask him.

In O Brother Where Art Thou there's a wonderful lullaby (track 10 on
the soundtrack, called "Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby") that I like
to sing to the Bug. After the CD had been missing for a while I just
found it and was able to listen to all the lyrics. There's one verse
that says "Honey in the rock and the sugar don't stop, gonna bring a
bottle to the baby". Anyone know anything about what that means, or
even just when the song is from? I tried a google search but just
came up with dozens of websites that list the lyrics.
