Nina Simone Miscellaneous Hush Little Baby HUSH LITTLE BABY Traditional Hush little baby don't say a word Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird And if that mockingbird won't sing Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring And if that diamond ring turns brass Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass And if that looking glass gets broke Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat And if that billy goat won't pull Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull And if that cart and bull fall down You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
