Lyrics Rock My Cradle Once Again - Hank Williams

Rock My Cradle Once Again

Recorded by hank williams, sr.
Writer: johnn bond and billy folger
far away from friends and loved ones
mid the storm, a soldier lay
Gathered round him all his buddies
Raised his head, we heard him say.
Theres a lamp light in the window
Where an angel from a- bove
Gently rocked my baby cradle
With such tender care and love.
Mother dearest, darlin mother
It would ease this awful pain
If shed sing until Im sleepin
Rock my cradle once a- gain.
neath the palms tonight hes sleepin
On an island far away
Tho the years pass on in sorrow
I still recall his words today.
Repeat 2nd and 3rd verse.
