Hush Little Baby

Hush little baby you have to keep quiet,

I don’t want you to notice, but dad started a riot

Mama’s in hiding, been there for years

But with me you are safe now no need for your tears

Hush little baby this is a warning,

I’m really not sure if we’ll make it to morning

Dad’s getting closer, just hear him yell,

And if we both die then we’ll see him in hell

Sleep little baby, I know you’re in sorrow

Just close your eyes, and I’ll see you tomorrow

Maybe someday we’ll see Mama again,

But for now little baby this might be the end

Sleep little baby, hold onto me tight

I’ll save you from fires that started tonight

Hush little baby, for this is goodbye,

I’m broken and bleeding and know I will die

But dad’s off in jail now, no need to worry,

The neighbor called 911, I just hope they hurry

Hush little baby, I see Mama coming,

I hear a lullaby, she’s the one humming

Kiss me goodbye, right there on my head,

We’ll meet again little baby, as soon as you’re dead.
