Lullaby
Hush now, baby, hush while I sing,
'Til the mama drifts off, it's a soothing thing: Lullaby.
Mama's falling asleep little by little,
Like green wood crackling in the fire's middle: Lullaby.
The green wood burns but doesn't flame,
Just like my mama, drifting off the same: Lullaby.
Hush now, baby, don't make a peep,
Tomorrow night, daddy's coming home to keep. Lullaby, ohh….
