Emmylou Harris – Didn't Leave Nobody But The Baby Lyrics 14 years ago
Wow you totally nailed it. I wasn't sure what this song was about until I read your post and I just knew that was the answer! I have read a few books about slavery, incl. Uncle Tom's Cabin, so I know this is not an uncommon thing. Makes me want to cry just thinking about it! What a gut-wrenching decision to make... Such a beautiful song, but I'm not sure I will be singing it to my kids :)
