Hush Little Baby 1952 by Jean Ritchie Lyrics

Hush little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird
If that mockingbird don't sing
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring turns brass
Mama's gonna buy you a looking-glass
If that looking-glass gets broke
Mama's gonna buy you a billygoat

If that billygoat don't pull
Mama's gonna buy you a cart and bull
If that cart and bull turn over
Mama's gonna buy you a dog named Rover

If that dog named Rover don't bark
Mama's gonna buy you a horse and cart
If that horse and cart break down
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
