Well, Mama going tippy-tippy-toeing through the house
Gotta see what's the matter with the baby
It's been bawling and squalling and a-kicking on the wall
Well, I guess it dropped its little bottle, maybe
Oh, Daddy, come a-running with the water and a rag
Gonna need another little diaper, maybe
No need a-hesitating or a-wandering and a-waiting
I know what's the matter with the baby
No need a-hesitating or a-wandering and a-waiting
We know what's the matter with the baby
Oh, Mama rock a baby, Daddy rock a baby, too
It's a-yawning and a-getting sleepy, maybe
So, Mama, keep a-rocking, Daddy, rock a little, too
And at last it's a-sleeping little baby
Well, Mama's tippy-toeing, Daddy's tippy-toeing, too
Gonna try to do a little sleeping, maybe
Whether it'll be a minute or an hour or two
Is depending entirely on the baby
Well, I hear the clock a-ringing
Just a-donging and a-dinging
Daddy, go and make a little baby
A little money, maybe
Mama, sleep a little longer
But remember, while I'm gone
Won't you please take care of the baby
After all, he's just a little bitty baby
Oh, Mama rock a baby, Daddy rock a baby, too
It's a-yawning and a-getting sleepy, maybe
So, Mama, keep a-rocking, Daddy, rock a little, too
And at last it's a-sleeping little baby
And at last it's a-sleeping little baby
And at last it's a-sleeping little baby
And at last it's a-sleeping little baby
