[Chorus]
Rock-a-bye baby in the tree top
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all

[Verse 1]
Baby is drowsing, cosy and fair
Mother sits near, in her rocking chair
Forward and back the cradle she swings
And though baby sleeps, he hears what she sings

[Verse 2]
From the high rooftops down to the sea
No one's as dear as baby to me
Wee little fingers, eyes wide and bright
Now sound asleep until morning light

[Chorus]
Rock-a-bye baby in the tree top
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks thе cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all
