Rockabye Lyrics

[00:01.36] Call it love and devotion
[00:04.25] Call it a mom's adoration (foundation)
[00:06.74] A special bond of creation, hah
[00:10.90] For all the single moms out there, going through frustration
[00:14.36] Clean Bandit, Sean-da-Paul, Anne-Marie
[00:16.82] Sing, make them hear
[00:18.37] She works at nights, by the water
[00:23.03] She's gone astray, so far away
[00:25.38] From her father's daughter
[00:27.51] She just wants a life for her baby
[00:32.34] All on her own, no one will come
[00:34.72] She's got to save him (daily struggle)
[00:37.01] She tells him, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love"
[00:41.46] "I'm gonna give you all of my love"
[00:43.96] "Nobody matters like you" (stay up there, stay up there)
[00:46.95] She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life" (straight!)
[00:50.91] "You're gonna grow and have a good life"
[00:53.37] "I'm gonna do what I've got to do" (stay up there, stay up there)
[00:56.42] So, rockabye, baby, rockabye
[01:00.19] I'm gonna rock you
[01:01.53] Rockabye, baby, don't you cry
[01:04.72] Somebody's got you
[01:06.28] Rockabye, baby, rockabye

[01:34.31] And no, mama, you never shed tear
