Hush little baby don't you cry

Momma's gonna buy you a nursery rhyme

And if that don't send you to sleep

Momma's gonna have to find the key

All of our worries are not our choice

Someone sees to that, I know not why

Things that we've worked for they started to sell

Now heaven is for angels and earth is hell



Hush little baby your time may come

When things as they are now will be undone

And you as the change if you last that long

And you as the change if you last that long



Hush oh, my child, Momma's only sad

They've damned nearly taken away all I have

And all I have in the world is you

Just you and the future's that sees me through



But hush oh, my child, Momma's only sad

They've damned nearly taken away all I have

And all I have in the world is you

All I have in the world is you

It's you and the future's that sees me through
