[Verse 1]
A little baby told God, "Hey, I'm kinda scared
Don't really know if I wanna go down there
From here it looks like a little blue ball
But that's a great big place and I'm so small"

[Verse 2]
Why can't I just stay here with you?
Did I make you mad, don't you want me, too?
And God said, "Oh, child, of course I do
But there's somebody special waiting for you"

[Chorus]
So, hush now, baby
Don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting
Whose only goal in life
Is making you sure you're always
Gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender tough and strong
It's almost time to go and meet your mom

[Verse 3]
You'll never have a better friend
Or a warmer touch to tuck you in
And she'll kiss your bruises, your bumps and scrapes
And anytime you hurt, her heart's gonna break
[Chorus]
So, hush now, baby
Don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting
Whose only goal in life
Is making you sure you're always
Gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender tough and strong
It's almost time to go and meet your mom

[Bridge]
Now when she’s talking to you
Make sure you listen close
Cause she's gonna teach everything
You'll ever need to know
Like how to mind your manners
To love and laugh and dream
And she'll put you on the path
That'll bring you back to me

[Chorus]
So, hush now, baby
Don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting
Whose only goal in life
Is making you sure you're always
Gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender tough and strong
Come on child it's time to meet your mom
