Lullaby

She grew up with the children of the stars

In the Hollywood hills and the boulevard

Her parents threw big parties

Everyone was there

They hung out with folks like Dennis Hopper and Bob Seger and Sonny and Cher

She feels safe now in this bar on Fairfax

And from the stage I can tell that she can't let go and she can't relax

And just before she hangs her head to cry

I sing to her a lullaby

I sing

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

She still lives with her mom outside the city

Down that street about a half a mile

And all her friends tell her she's so pretty

But she'd be a whole lot prettier if she smiled once in a while

'Cause even her smile looks like a frown

She's seen her share of devils in this angel town

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

I told her I ain't so sure about this place

It's hard to play a gig in this town

And keep a straight face

Seems like everybody's got a plan

It's kind of like Nashville with a tan

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Everything's gonna be all right

Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye

Rock-a-bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
