The most famous lullaby nursery rhyme for babies around the world.\r
\r
Rock a bye baby on the tree top,\r
When the wind blows the cradle will rock,\r
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,\r
And down will come baby, cradle and all.\r
Baby is drowsing\r
Cosy and fair\r
Mother sits near\r
In her rocking chair\r
Forward and back\r
The cradle she swings\r
And though baby sleeps\r
He hears what she sings\r
\r
From the high rooftops\r
Down to the sea\r
No ones as dear\r
As baby to me\r
Wee little fingers\r
Eyes wide and bright\r
Now sound asleep\r
Until morning light\r
\r
Rock-a-bye, baby,\r
Your cradle is green,\r
Fathers a King\r
And Mothers a queen.\r
Sisters a Lady\r
And wears a gold ring,\r
Brothers a drummer\r
And plays for the king.\r
\r
Rock-a-bye baby,\r
Way up on high,\r
Never mind baby,\r
Mother is nigh\r
Up to the ceiling,\r
Down to the ground,\r
Rock-a-bye baby,\r
Up hill and down.\r
\r
Hush a bye baby\r
up in the sky\r
when the cloud breaks\r
raindrops will fall and\r
down will come baby \r
to mother once more
