Rockabye

歌詞

She works the nights, by the water She's gone astray, so far away From my father's daughter She just wants a life for her baby All on her own, no one will come She's got to save him She tells him, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love I'm gonna give you all of my love Nobody matters like you" She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life You're gonna grow and have a good life I'm gonna do what I've got to do" So, Rockabye baby, Rockabye I'm gonna rock you Rockabye baby, don't you cry Somebody's got you Rockabye baby, Rockabye I'm gonna rock you Rockabye baby, don't you cry And no mama, you never shed tear Cause you have to shed things year after year And you give the youth love beyond compare You find his school fee and the bus fare Mmm Marie, the pops' disappear In the round back can't find him nowhere Now she got a six-year-old Trying to keep him warm Trying to keep out the cold When he looks in her eyes He don't know he is safe When she says "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love I'm gonna give you all of my love Nobody matters like you" So, Rockabye baby, Rockabye I'm gonna rock you Rockabye baby, don't you cry Somebody's got you Rockabye baby, Rockabye I'm gonna rock you Rockabye baby, don't you cry
