Variation of a Lullaby
v.1 Hush little baby don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mocking bird
And if that mocking bird don't sing
mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
mama's gonna give you all her time
Every hour of every day for the rest of your life
(chorus)
So hush little baby don't you cry
You'll always be within my eyes
Within my arms, within my touch
Within my heart, within all my love
v.2 Now hush little baby don't you cry
Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby
of all the times that we will share
We'll learn to love and we'll learn to care
And if our ways should part some day
in your heart my love will stay
Every hour of every day for the rest of your life
(chorus)
- only the first 4 lines are from the original song
