Well mama go a tippy tippy toeing through the house
|
Gotta see what's the matter with the baby
|
It's been a bawlin' and a squallin' and a kickin' on the wall
|
A-well I guess it's dropped its little bottle maybe
|
Oh daddy come a runnin' with the water and a rag
|
Gonna see another little diaper maybe
|
No need a hesitatin' or a wonderin' and a waitin' I know what's the matter with baby
|
No need a hesitatin' or a wonderin' and a waitin' I know what's the matter with baby
|
Oh mama rock a baby daddy rock a baby too it's a yawnin' and a gettin' sleepy maybe
|
So mama keep a rockin' daddy rock a little too and at last it's a sleeping little baby

|
Well mama tippy toein' daddy tippy toein' too gonna try to do a little sleepin' maybe
|
Whether it'll be a minute or an hour or two is depending entirely on the baby
|
Well I hear the clock a ringin' just a dongin' and a dingin'
|
Daddy go and make a little money maybe
|
Mama sleep a little longer but but while her daddy's gone
|
Mama gonna have to take care of the baby after all it's just a little bitty baby
|
Oh mama rock a baby...
|
And at last it's a sleeping little baby and at last it's a sleeping little baby
