The Crow On The Cradle |
The sheep’s in the meadow |
The cow’s in the corn |
Now is the time for a child to be born |
He’ll laugh at the moon |
And cry for the sun |
And if it’s a boy he’ll carry a gun |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
And if it should be that this baby’s a girl |
Never you mind if her hair doesn’t curl |
With rings on her fingers |
And bells on her toes |
And a bomber above her wherever she goes |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
The crow on the cradle |
The black and the white |
Somebody’s baby is born for a fight |
The crow on the cradle |
The white and the black |
Somebody’s baby is not coming back |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
Your mother and father will sweat and they’ll save |
To build you a coffin and dig you a grave |
Hush-a-bye little one, never you weep |
For we’ve got a toy that can put you to sleep |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
Bring me my gun, and I’ll shoot that bird dead |
That’s what your mother and father once said |
The crow on the cradle, what can we do Ah, this is a thing that I’ll leave up to you |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
