Rufus Wainwright - Hush Little Baby Lyrics

Rufus Wainwright Lyrics

"Hush Little Baby"
(feat. Martha Wainwright & Lucy Wainwright Roche)

Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird won't sing
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns to brass
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

And if that looking glass gets broke
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

And if that billy goat don't pull
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that cart and bull turn over
Papa's gonna buy you a dog and rover

And if that dog and rover don't bark
Papa's gonna buy you a horse and car

And if that horse and car turn 'round
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird won't sing
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns to brass
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

And if that looking glass gets broke
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

And if that billy goat don't pull
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that cart and bull turn over
Papa's gonna buy you a dog and rover

And if that dog and rover don't bark
Papa's gonna buy you a horse and car

And if that horse and car turn 'round
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
