Mighty Lak a Rose/Hush Little Baby
	Frank Stanton, Ethelbert Nevin, Nina Simone
	The next song is a combination of two songs And they're both children's songs And they're all about the beauty of children And that can't be said too much in words For children are so very beautiful They lack all our sophistication And all our fear And so they're just plain beautiful Sweetest little fellow everebody knows Don't know what to call him but he's mighty lak a rose Looking at his mammy eyes so shiny blue Till it seems like heaven is coming close to you Hush, little baby, don't say a word Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird If that mockingbird don't sing Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring If that diamond ring turns brass Papa's going to buy you a looking glass If that looking glass gets broke Papa's going to buy you a billy goat If that billy goat won't pull Pap's going to buy you a cart and bull Hush, little baby, don't say a word Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird When he's there sleeping in his little place I can see see the angels looking through the lace When the dark is falling and the shadows creep Then they I on tiptoe to kiss him in his sleep. Sweetest little fellow everebody knows Don't know what to call him but he's mighty lak a rose Looking at his mammy eyes so shiny blue Till it seems like heaven is coming close to you So hush little baby don't say a word Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird If that mockingbird don't sing Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring Hush little baby, hush little baby don't say a word
