Lyrics

Hush, little baby, don't you say a word

Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

If that mockingbird don't sing

Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring is brass

Your papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

If that looking glass gets broke

Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

If that billy goat won't pull

Your papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

If that cart and bull turn over

Papa's gonna buy you a dog named Rover

If that dog named Rover don't bark

Papa's gonna buy you a horse and cart

If that horse and cart fall down

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

Hush, little baby, don't you cry

Papa loves it, so do I
