Hush, little baby, don't you cry
Papa's gonna sing you a lullaby
Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
If that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you a golden ring
If that gold ring turns to brass,
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
If that glass begins to crack,
Papa's gonna buy you a jumping jack
If that jumping jack is broke,
Papa's gonna buy you a velvet cloack
If that velvet cloth is coarse,
Papa's gonna buy you a rocking horse
If that rocking horse won't rock,
Papa's gonna buy you a cuckoo clock
If that cuckoo clock won't tick,
Papa's gonna buy you a walking stick
If that walking stick falls down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
