Hush Little Baby

The King and Queen gently lull their baby to sleep in this warm animated bedtime classic.

Watch Hush Little Baby

Written by Traditional with additional words and music by Tom Radd

Lyrics

Hush, little baby, don't say a word

Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird don't sing

Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring is brass
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

And if that looking glass gets broke

Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

And if that billy goat don't pull

Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that cart and bull turn over
Papa's gonna buy you a dog called Grover

And if that dog called Grover won't bark

Papa's gonna buy you a horse and cart

And if that horse and cart turn around
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town
