Hush little baby don't say a word, Mama's gonna buy you a mocking bird.
If that mocking bird won't sing, Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns brass, Mama's gonna buy you a looking glass.
If that looking glass gets broke, Mama's gonna buy you a Billy goat.
If that Billy goat gets bony, Mama's gonna buy you a Shetland pony.
If that pony runs away, Mama's going to buy you another some day.
