The Crow On the Cradle |
The sheeps in the meadow |
The cows in the corn |
Now is the time for a child to be born |
Youll laugh at the moon and youll cry for the sun |
And if its a boy hell carry a gun |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
And if it should be that this babys a girl |
Never you mind if her hair doesnt curl |
With rings on her fingers dna bells on her toes |
A shadow above her wherever she goes |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
The crow on the cradle |
The black on the white |
Somebodys baby is born for a fight |
The crow on the cradle |
The white on the black |
Somebodys baby is not coming back |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
Bring me my gun and Ill shoot |
That bird dead |
Thats what your mother and |
Father once said |
A crow on the cradle what can we do This is the thing I must leave up to you |
Sang the crow on the cradle |
