Rockabye (Radio Edit)

She works at nights by the water
She's gone astray so far away
From my father's daughter
She just wants a life for her baby
All on her own,
No one will come
She's got to save him

She tells him, "Ooh, 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."

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, no
Rockabye, oh, yeah, yeah

She found her love way too early
He left her there with more than tears and heart to carry
They said, "Too young.
What are you thinking?"
They told her, "Choose."
She chose to use her heart and keep him

Now she's 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, "Ooh, love,
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love.
I'm gonna give you all of my love.
Nobody matters like you."

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry

Rockabye, no
Rockabye

Now she's 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...

She tells him, "Ooh, love,
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love.
I'm gonna give you all of my love.
Nobody matters like you."
Yeah

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, no
Rockabye
