Lyrics
Hush, Little Baby, don’t say a word;
Papa’s gonna buy you a mocking bird.
And if that mocking bird don’t sing,
Papa’s gonna buy you a diamond ring.

And if that diamond ring is brass,
Papa’s gonna buy you a looking-glass.
And if that looking-glass gets broke,
Papa’s gonna buy you a billy goat.

And it that billy goat don’t pull,
Papa’s gonna buy you a cart and bull.
And if that cart and bull turn over,
Papa’s gonna buy you a dog named Rover.

And if that dog named Rover don’t bark,
Papa’s gonna buy you a horse and cart.
And if that horse and cart fall down,
You’ll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
