"Hush-a-Bye Hard Times" Lyrics

/ 5
Song updated, review now!
(Dolly Parton)

Many years you have lingered around my cabin door
Oh, hard times come again no more
Oh, hard times come again no more.

Oh, hush-a-bye hard times, go ye away
'Cause my hungry baby wants a gingerbread cake
Not a cow in the barn yard, no money to spend
Not an egg in the hayloft, no little red hen.

Chorus:
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry, cold hungry stare
He keeps howling of hard times and the cupboard is bare.

Oh, hush-a-bye hard times go ye to rest
Cause my ragged baby wants a new ruffled dress
And she wants some new shoes with buckles to wear
And she wants some silver bows for her golden hair.

Chorus:
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry, cold hungry stare
He keeps howling of hard times and the cupboard is bare.

Chorus:
Hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry, cold hungry stare
He keeps howling of hard times and the cupboard is bare...
