A wonderfully sweet lullaby: Our version of this beautiful song starts with a wind up musical
toy version of the song and Rebecca Leivers stunning voice brings you into the track for real.
The Nursery Rhyme Collection version features a fantastic jazz style guitar part from Mark
Sansom, the Dave Davies of the UK Kinks tribute band 'The Kinx'. He played the part on a 1959
Hofner Club 40 which sounds as beautiful today as it did when it was first built.
Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won't sing,
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns to brass,
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass.
If that looking glass gets broke,
Mama's going to buy you a billy goat.
If that billy goat won't pull,
Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull.
If that cart and bull turn over,
Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover.
If that dog named Rover won't bark,
Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart.
If that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.
If that mockingbird won't sing,
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns to brass,
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass.
If that looking glass gets broke,
Mama's going to buy you a billy goat.
Hush, little baby, don't feel down,
You’re still the sweetest little baby in town
So hush little baby, don't you cry,
Daddy loves you and so do I.
