[Chorus]
Rock-a-bye, baby, on the tree top;
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock;
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,
Down will come baby, cradle and all!
[Verse 1]
Rock-a-bye, baby,
Your cradle is green,
Father's a King,
And mother's a queen,
[Verse 2]
Sister's a lady,
And wears a gold ring,
Brother's a drummer,
And plays for the king.
[Chorus 2]
Rock-a-bye, baby,
Way up on high,
Never mind baby
Mother is 'nigh
Up to the ceiling,
Down to the ground,
Rock-a-bye, baby,
Up hill and down.
