Traditional
Rock-a-bye Baby
[Intro]
Rock-a-bye baby
On the treetop
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fly
And up will drift baby
Into the sky
[Verse 1]
Smile, darling child
No need to fear
If the wind blows
Your loved ones are near
If the bough breaks
We'll now learn to fly
We'll journey together
In a lullaby
[Chorus]
Rock-a-bye baby
On the treetop
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fly
And up will drift baby
Into the sky
[Verse 2]
Daylight is gone
Evening's begun
Remember the playtime
The hours in the sun
But your eyes are heavy
With adventures untold
Now gently surrender
Let dreamland unfold
[Break]
[Verse 3]
The moon paints a rainbow
That leads through the stars
Past Jupiter, Saturn
Venus and Mars
Now we are soaring
Through lands past believe
Floating on moonlight
That shimmers beneath
[Chorus]
Rock-a-bye baby
On the treetop
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fly
And up will drift baby
Into the sky
