Текст песни Rock-A-Bye Baby Blues - Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

Rock-a-bye baby blues
Yes! Well, this comes from the heart of Billy Jack Wills
Because he has a baby, seven months old
Come in, Billy Jack, sing

I come home in the evening and I'm all tired out
To see that baby makes me wanna shout
Well, I lay down with a great big sigh
That's when the baby begins to cry

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

Well, my wife said, "You wanted a bundle of joy
Let's see you get up now and rock that boy"
Heat his milk and don't get it too hot
You wanted a baby, well, that's what you got

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

I stumbled through the dark, I can't find the light
What makes him wanna cry in the middle of the night?
As a new father, it seems a little strange
But his momma said to see if he needs a change

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

Well, he just keeps a-crying at the top of his voice
I have to get up 'cause I got no choice
His momma keeps a-yellin' to stop his crying
I'm gettin' a little mad 'cause that's what I'm tryin'

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

Well, there is an old saying that's sure out of style
"I'm about to spare the rod and spoil the child"
But listen, little fellow, when you get about three
There's gonna be a new day between you and me

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

Well, when I got married I thought I wanted four
But one's enough, I can't handle no more
He sets and he cries, and he sure gets loud
I guess as a father, I should feel proud

I got the rock-a-bye baby, rock-a-bye baby blues

Rock-a-bye baby blues
