Lullaby
Written By: Jack Nelson
Album: Going Places
[Verse 1]
If I could change the alphabet I’d put “U” before “I”
You know we would be a set in every nursery rhyme
I would be Jack and you would be my Jill
Ain’t goin’ back, back up that hill
But you can hold my crown
In case I tumble down, again.
I guess I would be the dish 'cause you're my little spoon
And like the dog we’d both laugh if a cow jumped over the moon
Hear the fiddle play as we’d run away
Diddle diddle, hey hey, yeah hey hey hey
Star light twinkle bright
Won’t you guide us home tonight
[Chorus]
Hush my baby don’t say a word
Listen to the lady bird
She sings for you and me
And our itsy-bitsy
No my darlin’ don’t make a peep
Close your eyes count black sheep
Hear the bell dong-ding
While the rain is pouring
And the cocka-doodle-doo of the coo-coo clock
As you gently row your boat to the hickory dock
Yeah your dreaming merely, darlin’ don’t you cry
Rockabye to our sweet lullaby
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
When you're an old mother
Digging through your cupboard
For fixings from the muffin man
You’ll be the baker I’ll be your man
Like London Bridge I fell for you
And how I’ll be a little blue
When you can’t remember how to count to two
But you can count on me to always buckle your shoes
[Chorus]
Hush my baby don’t say a word
Listen to the lady bird
She sings for you and me
And our itsy-bitsy
No my darlin’ don’t make a peep
Close your eyes count black sheep
Hear the bell dong-ding
While the rain is pouring
And the cocka-doodle-doo of the coo-coo clock
As you gently row your boat to the hickory dock
Yeah your dreaming merely, darlin’ don’t you cry
Rockabye to our love's lullaby
Rockabye our whole life's a lullaby
