Youve been on this earth for a short
little while
Yet you seem to understand whats going on
So small and good-natured, your mama taught you well
Youre loved by one and all
So sweet and innocent since the day you were born
Unfortunately, I welcome you to our garbage world
Well now hush little baby dont you cry
Cause mamas gonna sing you a lullaby
Hey little girl now dont you cry
Wipe them big blue eyes dry
Your papa kissed his home goodbye
This aint bout you or I
Little girl
Oh little girl, listen to me
Hush now baby dont you cry
Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby
No need to worry youll grow up to be strong
At least thats what my mama once told me
She said no use crying over things gone wrong
Just pick up the pieces and keep movin on
So I tell it like it is
Dont be afraid, I know it aint easy
To overcome fear, so keep your stand tough
Keep your head high, keep your head high
And aim for the sky....
