Rock and Roll Lullaby

She was just sixteen and all alone when I came to be So we grew up together, my mama-child and me Now things were bad and she was scared but whenever I would cry She'd calm my fear and dry my tears With a rock and roll lullaby And she'd sing Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, it'll be all right Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, just hold on tight Sing it to me, mama My, my, my, my mama Sing it sweet and clear, oh mama let me hear That old rock and roll lullaby We made it through the lonely days but, Lord, the nights were long And we'd dream of better mornin's when mama sang a song Now I can't recall the words at all, it don't make sense to try 'Cause I just knew lotsa love came through In that rock and roll lullaby And she'd sing Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, it'll be all right Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, just hold on tight I can hear ya, mama My, my, my, my mama Nothin' moves my soul like the sound of the good old Rock and roll lullaby Just hold on tight My, my, my, my mama Nothin' moves my soul like the sound of the good old Rock and roll lullaby
