Carrie Higgins - Rock-a-Bye Lyrics
About the earthquakes that are rumblin’ all aroundWell hey diddle diddle it’s an age old riddleThat preparation helps to calm us downHickety pickety, this town ain’t so ricketyAnd we can take whatever comes alongIf we just get on the stick, jack be nimble jack be quickAnd when we’re ready we can hold strongChorus:Rock-a-bye and goodnightSweet dreams and sleep tightI’m not scared ‘cause i’m preparedThe ground will be the only thing that shakes‘cause i’ll be good and ready when it quakes, when it quakesA tisket a tasket, a green and yellow basketProb’ly wouldn’t be strong enoughGet a steel or plastic box that could keep out goldilocksAnd when it’s filled up we can hang toughHush little baby don’t you cry, mama’s goin’ out to buyEvery little thing we need and prob’ly moreWhile humpty dumpty’s fallin’ down, dad will keep us safe and soundWhen san andreas knocks upon our doorChorusBridge:Dust mask, radio, wrench and shoesBooks and games to cure the earthquake bluesSpaceblankets, toothbrush, soap and a prayerToilet paper, trash bags, it’s all in thereFlashlight, batteries, food and drinkEverything’s here but the kitchen sinkI.d., first aid, seal it airtightKnowin’ it’s there will help us sleep at nightChorusTag:Looby loo looby light - even saturday nightI’ll be good and ready when it quakes, when it quakesRock-a-bye, goodnight, sweet dreams and sleep tight
