CHORUS |
|
Well, rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop |
|
When the wind blows the cradle will rock |
|
So rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop |
|
When the wind blows, mmm |
|
Well, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick |
|
Jack jumped over the candlestick |
|
He jumped so high up above |
|
He landed in the cradle of love |
|
CHORUS |
|
Hi diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle |
|
The cow jumped over the moon |
|
And on the way down she met a turtle dove |
|
Said "Let's go rockin' in the cradle of love" |
|
CHORUS |
|
Jack and Jill went up the hill |
|
To get a pail of water |
|
Jack fell for Jill, gave her a shove |
|
They fell into the cradle of love |
|
CHORUS |
|
