(Loretta Lynn - Frances Heighton)

(Give up to the baby that's what they'd always say)

And big sister would let her path away

We shared a sandbox little sister and me I was her big sister and she was only three

Give up to the baby that's what they'd always say

And big sister would let her path away

All through our childhood and our high school days

My little sister always had to have her way

Now I can't hurt the baby and I can't let him go

Be brave big sister this time and say no

Now all that I remember as they drove out of sight

Just married and her holdin' the ones I love so tight

Now all I do is rock my darling I just can't let her cry

So rock a bye baby rock a bye

Give up to the baby and I'd lose every time

Now they're saying big sister is losin' her mind
