I found a song from Jimmie Davis on his "How Great Thou Art" Album with these lyrics. The title of the song is "My Little Boy Blue".
I have purchased a few copies of the album on ebay. I would not have found this song without your help and the help of all your patrons. Thank you. I think I have been searching for this song for more than 20 years. My grandfather use to play this album when we would visit and I sang the song from memory to put my kids to sleep until they were old enough to protest. Great Album by a Great man. Hope this helps.
