Hush Little Baby

Hush little baby don't say a word.
Daddy gonna buy you a mocking bird
...and if that mocking bird don't sing
... daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.

He bought all the things that she might need
a rocker, a cradle, and a baby swing.
He waited nine months for her to arrive.
The Christmas gift, was daddys pride.

A few years later on down the line
He taught her to read and ride a bike.
Then Girl Scout cookies and Halloween.
He even loved her when he had to be mean.

Hush little baby don't say a word.
Daddy gonna buy you a mocking bird
...and if that mocking bird don't sing
... daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.

Soon came High School dances, and football games.
Never enough time left in the day.
Where she off to? Whats his name?
Daddys little girl is the same.

Then one day she made him cry.
Daddys little girl becomes a bride...

He bought all the things that she might need
a rocker, a cradle, and a baby swing...

Hush little baby don't say a word.
Daddy gonna buy you a mocking bird
...and if that mocking bird don't sing
... daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
