Hush Little Baby

Hush little baby, don't you cry

I said hush little baby, don't you cry

I said hush little baby, don't you cry, no

I said hush little baby, don't you cry

I'm saying hush little baby, don't you cry

Daddy ain't sure he can raise you right

I ain't even good with saving my money

Why should I think I could save your life?

The whole family's gonna think I'm a devil

'Cause I don't want to see my angel's eyes

I say this with one hand on my heart

Guilt ain't gonna make me change my mind

My first thoughts were my worst thoughts

Running through my head in circles

The world's gonna hate me for saying this

But patience is a virtue

So we don't have to rush for our first youth

We could take time, do rehearsals

And I ain't acting, this is personal

And I ain't doing this just to hurt you

I should say goodbye before I say hello

So darling, hold me closely tonight

Because if you open your eyes I'll never let you go

Moving slowly we'll both sleep tonight

And I'll just be dreaming till you wake me up

When I'm telling her about raving

She's telling me about cravings

I just want her to get the message

I don't want to have to be so blatant

So I told her my life ain't balanced

Yeah, so the time ain't right

She said God's clock's the only one that matters

And it's about time I tried

Yeah, and if I listen to my family

Then I'll be a new addition to my family

I can't help feeling peer pressured

Everyone's looking down but they don't understand me

And everyone's so suggestive

I'm getting mixed messages but nobody's rang me

Huh, I'm saying this ain't a game

But when I say the wrong thing everybody wants to hang me

I should say goodbye before I say hello

So darling, hold me closely tonight

Because if you open your eyes I'll never let you go

Moving slowly we'll both sleep tonight

And I'll just be dreaming till you wake me up

Hush little baby, don't you cry

I said hush little baby, don't you cry

I said hush little baby, don't you cry, no

I said hush little baby, don't you cry

I know I should say goodbye before I say hello

Darling, hold me closely tonight

Because if you open your eyes I'll never let you go

Moving slowly we'll both sleep tonight

And I'll be dreaming till you wake me up
