Lullaby

Going off to sleep on mamma’s breast,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
He’s the baby mamma loves best--
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
Rosy cheeks have been kissed by the sun,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
He’s so tired chasing after fun,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!

Pretty white “nighty”--isn’t he sweet?
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
Reaching right from his chin to his feet,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
Never mind staring up at the sky,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
The stars will wink at you by and by,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!

Fast asleep on his mamma’s breast,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
Put him down in his little white nest,
Hush-a-bye, baby boy!
