Allison Moorer - Transatlantic Sessions - Series 4: Volume Two

Mocking Bird

Hush little baby
Don't say a word
Pappas gonna buy you
A mockingbird

If that mockingbird
Don't sing
Pappas gonna buy you
A diamond ring

If that diamond ring
Turns brass
Pappas gonna buy you
A lookin glass

If that lookin glass
Get's broke
Pappas gonna buy you
Billy goat

If that billy goat
Don't pull
Pappas gonna buy you
A cart and bull

If that cart
And bull turns over
Pappas gonna buy you
A doggie named rover

If that dog
Named rover
Don't bark
Pappas gonna buy you
A horse and cart

If that horse
And cart fall down
You'll still be
The sweetest little
Baby in town
