Lyrics

La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
Brrrrr
Chuck a-chuck-chuck (huh! Yeah!)
A summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumping, don't you know, my darlin'?
I said a-right now and the cotton is high
Like-a like-a like-a, your daddy's rich
You're a rich girl-a
And your mommy's good-lookin', yeah
So a-hush, pretty little baby, don't you cry
One of these, one of these, one of these mornings, darlin'
You're gonna rise, you're gonna rise up singin'
Then you'll spread your little wings, your little wings
And-a take to the sky-la-la-la
Brrr, until that mornin', yeah, baby
There's nothin' a-gonna harm you, girl
A-with a-Mommy and a-Daddy standing by, yeah
I-I know my little darlin', I love her so
And I'm never gonna let you go, Lord
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
Hush, pretty lil' baby
Don't you cry (huh, shuh)
Da-dah-du, little darlin', I said
No, no, child, I-I said a-right now
A-listen, baby, I don't', I don't
I don't, I don't want you to cry, don't
Pretty baby, child, a-don't let a tear, don't let a tear
Fall from your eyes
Baby child I said, a-right now
Don't let a tear, don't let a tear, don't let a tear
Baby doll, I said, fall-a from your eye
So, hush, pretty baby
Don't you
Brrrrr
Chuck, Chuck a-chuck-chuck
Baby, don't you cry
Don't pretty baby doll, I said right now
Good God Almighty, baby
Baby, don't
Don't let a tear, don't let a tear
Little girl, no
Little darlin', do not let a tear fall-a from your eye
