Hush-a-bye, Baby.

USH-A-BYE, baby, on the tree-top ;
When the wind blows the cradle will rock ;

When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,
And down will come cradle, and baby, and all.

One of three, newly-hatched, lying all in a row,
In a snug little nest at the top of a tree ;
And the wind, let it blow, there no danger can be.

Dickory, dickory, dock.

But a little black kitten came strolling by, -
Dickory, dickory, dock ;

And she snapped up the mouse and she glanced at the clock,
Dickory, dickory, dock.

‘Ah, this is the time of day!’ quoth she ;

‘Tt is dinner-time now both with you and for me.’
