Rufus Wainwright
Hush Little Baby
[Verse 1]
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird won't sing
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns to brass
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat
[Verse 2]
And if that billy goat don't pull
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over
Papa's gonna buy you a dog and rover
And if that dog and rover don't bark
Papa's gonna buy you a horse and car
And if that horse and car turn 'round
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
[Verse 3: Rufus Wainwright, Martha Wainwright, Lucy Wainwright Roche, All]
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird won't sing
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns to brass
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat
[Verse 4]
And if that billy goat don't pull
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over
Papa's gonna buy you a dog and rover
And if that dog and rover don't bark
Papa's gonna buy you a horse and car
And if that horse and car turn 'round
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
