Rock and Roll Lullaby

She was just sixteen and all alone

When I came to be

So we grew up together

My mama child and me

Now things were bad

And she was scared

But whenever I would cry

She'd calm my fears and dry my tears

With that rock'n'roll lullaby

And she'd sing

Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

It will be all right

Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Let's just hold on tight

Sing it to me mama

My my my my mama

Sing it sweet and clear

Sing it sweet and clear

Oh, mama let me hear

That old rock'n'roll lullaby

Now we made it through the lonely days

But, Lord, the nights were long

And we'd dream of better mornin's

When mama sang a song

Now I can't recall the words at all

It don't make sense to try

'Cause I just knew lotsa love came through

In that rock and roll lullaby

And she'd sing

Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na

It'll be all right

Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na

Now just hold on tight

I can hear ya, mama

My, my, my, my mama

Nothin' moves (heals) my soul

Like the sound of the good old

Rock and roll lullaby
