My wife, she's an insomniac.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
It's gonna give me a heart attack.
Rock-a-rock-a-rock-a-bye, babe.
She's up all night pacing round the floor.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
Won't someone tell me what she's looking for?
Earplugs?
Someone to talk to?
The meaning of living life?
She's up and down all through the night.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
The other night I got a dreadful fright.
Rock-a-rock-a-rock-a-bye, babe.
I turned over just as quiet as could be.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
And there she is, she's staring right at me.
Rock-a-rock-a-rock-a-bye, babe.
She's gonna let you go.
She's gonna let you go.
She's gonna let you go.
She's gonna let you go.
Now this might come as a big surprise.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
But when I go to sleep I shut my eyes.
Rock-a-rock-a-rock-a-bye, babe.
And suddenly it's half past three.
Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, babe.
She shakes me awake and she says to me,
Do you love me?
So I just got asleep.
I've got to get up in three hours.
Of course I love you, babe.
Now's not the...
Rock-a-bye, baby, on the treetop.
When the wind blows, yeah, the cradle will rock.
When the bough breaks, oh, the cradle will fall.
Down walking, baby, the cradle and all.
If I only had the energy,
I'd sing you a thousand lullabies.
I'd sing them sweet and I'd sing them low.
Just to see you shut your pretty eyes.
