Baby in Cradle


Rock-a-bye baby on the tree top,
When the wind blows,
the cradle will rock,
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,
And Daddy will catch you, cradle and all.
_______________________

Hush little Baby, don't say a word,
Daddy's gonna buy you a mocking bird.
If that mocking bird don't sing,
Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns to brass,
Daddy's gonna buy you a looking glass.
It that looking glass gets broke,
Daddy's gonna buy you a billy goat.
If that billy goat don't pull,
Daddy's gonna buy you a cart and bull.
If that cart and bull turn over,
Daddy's gonna buy you a dog named Rover.
If that dog named Rover don't bark,
Daddy's gonna buy you a horse and cart.
If that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the bestest baby in town.
