Hush Little Baby
Lyrics
Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a looking-glass.
If that looking-glass gets broke,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a billy goat.
If that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull.
And if that cart and bull turn over,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a dog named Rover.
If that dog named Rover won't bark,
Papa's gonna (going to) buy you a horse and cart.
If that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest baby in town.
