judy collins - crow on the cradle lyrics

Loading...

the sheep’s in the meadow, the cow’s in the corn
now is the time for a child to be born
he’ll cry at the moon and he’ll laugh at the sun
if he’s a boy he’ll carry a gun
sang the crow on the cradle

if it should be that our baby’s a girl
never you mind if her hair doesn’t curl
rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
a bomber above her wherever she goes
sang the crow on the cradle

rockabye baby, the dark and the light
somebody’s baby is born for a fight
rockabye baby, the white and the black
somebody’s baby is not coming back
sang the crow on the cradle

your mother and father they’ll scr-p and they’ll save
build you a coffin and dig you a grave
hush a bye little one, why do you weep?
we have a toy that will put you to sleep
sang the crow on the cradle

bring me a gun and i’ll shoot that bird dead
that’s what your father and mother once said
crow on the cradle, what shall i do?
that is the thing i’ll leave up to you
sang the crow on the cradle
