Lyrics Cradle Rock - The Heartbreakers

Cradle Rock

Rock-a-bye, Baby
On the tree-top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
And when the bow breaks
The cradle will fall
So down, down, down, down
Down will come, Baby
Cradle and all
I gave you my kisses
Right from the start
I gave you my true love
For I wasn’t smart
But you took advantage
And broke my heart
An' down, down, down, down
Down went my soul
An' you threw away my heart
Don’t make me cry for you
Don’t make me die for you
I never thought it’d be like this
But in the end you see
You took the best of me
So down with all
Down came my heart
You learned to love me
Much too late
Offered me kisses
I wouldn’t take
When the wind blew
You saw me fall
So down, down, down, down
Down will come, Baby
Cradle and all
