Lyrics
Callin' to Jesus
Hung on her wall
Momma keeps cryin'
"Where has my baby gone?"
Alone in his own bedroom
Daddy's asleep
Now I hear him yellin'
"Wake me! Wake me! Please!"
You can wail
Yourself free
Squeaky wheel
Gets the grease
In this vale
Of misery
You can wail
Yourself free
Rock-a-bye baby
On the tree top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bow breaks
The cradle will fall
And down will come baby
Cradle and all
Life goes by like lightnin'
Flash! Flash! Boom! and you're gone
Well, don't fade away
No, No, don't fade away
