Rockabye Lyrics by Tempus Quartet

2018

[Verse 1]
She works the nights by the water
She's gone astray, so far away
From her 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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 nothin' like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do"

[Chorus]
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
Rockabye
Rockabye

[Refrain]
Now she got a six-year-old
Tryin' to keep him warm
Tryin' to keep out the cold
When he looks in her eyes
He don't know he is safe when she says

[Pre-Chorus]
"Ooh, love
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"

[Chorus]
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
Rockabye
Rockabye
Rockabye

[Refrain]
Now she got a six-year-old
Tryin' to keep him warm
Tryin' to keep out the cold
When he looks in her eyes
He don't know he is safe when she says

[Pre-Chorus]
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 nothin' like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I got to do"

[Chorus]
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
Rockabye
Rockabye
Rockabye
