Rock-A-Bye Baby Lyrics

Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop

When the wind blows, the cradle will rock

When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall

And down will come baby, cradle and all

Baby is now curled up in mother's arms

Swinging back and forth, feeling her warmth

The cradle keeps swinging from left to right

And Mother is kissing the baby good night

Rock-a-bye baby, look at the stars

They also wonder how lovely you are

Baby is drowsy, hugging his bear

The mother is swinging in her rocking chair

I'll be right here when you go to sleep

And angels will guard you so don't you weep

Close your eyes and sleep well my dear

Sleep until morning, mommy is near

Rock-a-bye baby, I am here, don't cry

The fairy will soon come and kiss your eyes

Sleep little one, you sleep tight and well

Until you hear, the sweet morning bell

Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop

When the wind blows, the cradle will rock

When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall

And down will come baby, cradle and all
