Mockingbird Lyrics

by Allison Moorer

Hush little baby, don't say a word
Pappa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e66341-allison_moorer~mockingbird_lyrics.html ]
If that mockingbird don't sing
Pappa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring turns brass
Pappa's gonna buy you a looking glass

If that looking glass gets broke
Pappa's gonna buy you billy goat

If that billy goat don't pull

Pappa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

If that cart and bull turns over
Pappa's gonna buy you a doggie named Rover

If that dog named Rover don't bark
Pappa's gonna buy you a horse and cart

If that horse and cart fall down
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
