Rockabye - Acoustic Version

She works the night, by the water
She's gonna stress, so far away from her father's daughter
She just wants a life for her baby
All on her own, no one will come
She's got to save him
She tells him "ooh love"
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you
She tells him "your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do"

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Rockabye, (oh)
Rockabye, (ooh)

She found her love
Way too early
He left her there
With more than tears
And hard to carry
They said "too young"
"What are you thinking?"
They told her "choose"
She chose to use
Her heart and keep him

Now she's got a six year old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold
When he looks in her the eyes
He don't know that is safe when she says
"Uh, love, no one's ever going to hurt you love
I'm going to give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Rockabye, (no- ooh)
Rockabye, (nooo)

Now she's got to a six year old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold
When he looks in her the eyes
He don't know that is safe when she says

She tells him "uh, love, no one's ever going to hurt you love
I'm going to give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"

She tells him, "Your life
Ain't gonna be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do"

So, rockabye baby,
Rockabye baby, don't you cry

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Rockabye, (no- ooh)
Rockabye, (no-ooh)
Rockabye, (no-ooh)
Rockabye, (ooh)
