Hush-a-Bye Lyrics
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
go to sleep you little baby.
When you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses.
Dapples and greys, pintos and bays,
all the pretty little horses.
Way down yonder in the meadow,
poor little baby crying, "mama".
Birds and the butterflies flutter round his eyes,
poor little baby crying, "mama".
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
go to sleep you little baby.
When you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses.
Dapples and greys, pintos and bays,
all the pretty little horses.
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
go to sleep you little baby.
go to sleep you little baby.
When you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses.
all the pretty little horses.
poor little baby crying, "mama".
Birds and the butterflies flutter round his eyes,
poor little baby crying, "mama".
go to sleep you little baby.
When you wake you shall have
all the pretty little horses.
all the pretty little horses.
go to sleep you little baby.

Is it the same song? "Hushabye" is a song written by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman. It was originally made famous in the summer of 1959 by New York doo wop group, The Mystics when it reached #20 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was later covered by the American rock band The Beach Boys. It was released on their July 1964 album" (~Wiki) The spelling of the track's title is different (i.e. hyphens)
Nope. Not the same song, but all the versions appear similar in their intent and innocence. Fascinating.
