Lyrics Rock-a-Bye Baby Blues - Ray Thomas

I like lazing in the mid-day sun
Doin' nothin' is having fun
I said, "Oh, Lord, I love lazin' in your mid-day sun"
And I like doin' my thing all night
With my baby that suits me right
I said, "Come on, baby, do your thing all night with me"

And I like swimmin' in the deep, blue sea
I like swimmin' but it don't like me
I said, "Come on, baby, let me take you to the deep, blue sea"
'Cause I'm gonna let my hair hang down
I'm gonna let my skin turn brown
I said, "Come on, baby, let your hair hang down with me"

Wake me up if you're goin' down and I'll put things right
You might get weary sometimes
I give you my word you're gonna sleep tonight
I said, "Oh, come closer in my arms
'Cause I'm gonna sing you my Rock-a-Bye Baby Blues"
"Oh, I'm gonna sing you my Rock-a-Bye Baby Blues"

Try me out if you're still in doubt because it's up to you
If I should fail you sometimes
It's not because I wanted to make you blue, oh, dear, no
Come closer in my arms
'Cause I'm gonna sing you my Rock-a-Bye Baby Blues
Oh, I'm gonna sing you my Rock-a-Bye Baby Blues
