[00:11.296]The sheep's in the meadow,
[00:14.129] the cow's in the corn
[00:17.695]Now is the time for a child to be born
[00:23.895]He'll cry at the moon and he'll laugh at the sun
[00:29.878]If he's a boy he'll carry a gun
[00:34.945]Sang the crow on the cradle
[00:44.844]If it should be that our baby's a girl
[00:51.611]Never you mind if her hair doesn't curl
[00:57.010]Rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
[01:03.226]A bomber above her wherever she goes
[01:08.394]Sang the crow on the cradle
[01:18.575]Rockabye baby, the dark and the light
[01:25.326]Somebody's baby is born for a fight
[01:31.242]Rockabye baby, the white and the black
[01:38.443]Somebody's baby is not coming back
[01:43.825]Sang the crow on the cradle
[02:00.206]Your mother and father they'll scrap and they'll save
[02:07.548]Build you a coffin and dig you a grave
[02:13.626]Hush a bye little one, why do you weep?
[02:19.861]We have a toy that will put you to sleep
[02:25.960]Sang the crow on the cradle
[02:38.712]Bring me a gun and I'll shoot that bird dead
[02:45.668]That's what your father and mother once said
[02:51.752]Crow on the cradle, what shall I do?
[02:58.565]That is the thing I'll leave up to you
[03:05.254]Sang the crow on the cradle
