[Verse]

She works the night by the water

She's gone astray, so far away

From my father's daughter

She just wants a life for a baby

All on her own, no one will come

She's got to save him

[Pre-Chorus]

She tells him, "Oh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love."

"I'm gonna give you all of my love."

"Nobody matters like you."

She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life."

"You're gonna grow and have a good life."

"I'm gonna do what I've got to do."

[Chorus]

So, rockabye, baby, rockabye

I'm gonna rock you

Rockabye, baby, don't you cry

Somebody's got you

Rockabye, baby, rockabye

I'm gonna rock you

Rockabye, baby, don't you cry

Rockabye

[Instrumental Drop]

[Bridge]

Now she got a six-year-old

Trying to keep him warm

Trying to keep out the cold

When he looks in her eyes

He don't know he is safe when she says

[Pre-Chorus]

She tells him, "Oh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love."

"I'm gonna give you all of my love."

"Nobody matters like you."

She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life."

"You're gonna grow and have a good life."

"I'm gonna do what I've got to do."

[Chorus]

So, rockabye, baby, rockabye

I'm gonna rock you

Rockabye, baby, don't you cry

Somebody's got you

Rockabye, baby, rockabye

I'm gonna rock you

Rockabye, baby, don't you cry

Rockabye

[Post-Chorus]

Rockabye
