Songtext zu 'Rockabye' von Toby Randall

She works the nights by the water
She's gone astray so far away from her father's daughter
She just wants a life for her baby
All on her own, no one will come
She's got to save him

She tells him: Ooh love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you

She tells him: Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you

Rockabye baby, rockabye
Rockabye baby, rockabye
Rockabye, no

Single mama you doing out there
Facing the hard life without no fear
Just so you know that you really care
'Cause any obstacle come you well prepared
No mama, you never shed tear
'Cause you have to shed things year after year
And you give the youth love beyond compare
You find the school fee and the bus fare

Hmmmm marie the pops' disappear
In the round back can't find him nowhere
Steadily you work flow, everything you know
So you nah stop no time, no time for your jear

Now she got a six-year-old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold
When he looks in her eyes
He don't know he is safe when she says

No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you

Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do

So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby
Somebody's got you

Rockabye baby, rockabye
Rockabye baby, rockabye
Rockabye
