She was just sixteen

And all alone when I came to be

So we grew up together

Our mama child and me Now things were bad and she was scared

But whenever I would cry

She'd calm my fears and dry my tears

With a Rock and Roll lullaby And she'd sing

Sha na na na na

Na na na na

It'll be all right

Sha na na na na

Na na na na Just hold on tight

Sing it to me, mama

My, my, my, my, mama

Sing it sweet and clear

Oh mama, let me hear

That old Rock and Roll lullaby We made it through the lonely days

But, Lord, the nights were long

And we'd dream of better mornin's

When mama sang a song Now I can't recall the words at all

It don't make sense to try

'Cause I just knew lotsa love came through

In that Rock and Roll lullaby And she'd sing

Sha na na na na

Na na na na

It'll be all right

Sha na na na na

Na na na na

Just hold on tight I can hear ya, mama

My, my, my, my mama

Nothin' moves my soul

Like the sound of the good old

Rock and Roll lullaby Just hold on tight

My, my, my, my, mother

Nothin' loose my soul

Like the sound of the good old

Rock and Roll lullaby
