Rock and Roll Lullaby
She was just 16 and all alone
When I came to be
So we grew up together
My mama, child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
With a rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing sha na na na, na na, na na na
It'll be all right
Sha na na na, na na, na na na, na
Just hold on tight
Sing it to me, Mama (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Mama, Mama, Mama (it'll be all right)
Sing it sweet and clear (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Oh, Mama, let me hear that old rock and roll lullaby
Now we made it through the lonely days
But Lord, the nights were long
And we'd dream of better moments
When Mama sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
It don't make sense to try
'Cause I just knew lots of love came through
In that rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing sha na na na, na na, na na na
It'll be all right
Sha na na na, na na, na na na, na
Just hold on tight
I can hear you, Mama (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Mama, Mama (it'll be all right)
Nothing moves my soul (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Like the sound of a good, old rock and roll lullaby
It'll be all right
Just hold on tight
Mama, Mama, Mama
Nothing moves my soul
Like the sound of a good, old rock and roll lullaby
(Sha na na na, na na, na na na)
It'll be all right
(Sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Just hold on tight
When I came to be
So we grew up together
My mama, child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
With a rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing sha na na na, na na, na na na
It'll be all right
Sha na na na, na na, na na na, na
Just hold on tight
Sing it to me, Mama (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Mama, Mama, Mama (it'll be all right)
Sing it sweet and clear (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Oh, Mama, let me hear that old rock and roll lullaby
Now we made it through the lonely days
But Lord, the nights were long
And we'd dream of better moments
When Mama sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
It don't make sense to try
'Cause I just knew lots of love came through
In that rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing sha na na na, na na, na na na
It'll be all right
Sha na na na, na na, na na na, na
Just hold on tight
I can hear you, Mama (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Mama, Mama (it'll be all right)
Nothing moves my soul (sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Like the sound of a good, old rock and roll lullaby
It'll be all right
Just hold on tight
Mama, Mama, Mama
Nothing moves my soul
Like the sound of a good, old rock and roll lullaby
(Sha na na na, na na, na na na)
It'll be all right
(Sha na na na, na na, na na na)
Just hold on tight
