The Little Baby Cries

The little baby cries for her mother at midnight,
She sings a lullaby to her sweet girl.
Where have you gone mother?
Where have you gone father?
Were you ever there?

The child cries for her mother in the morning.
She doesn’t understand what she is going through.
Where have you gone mother?
Where have you gone father?
Were you ever there?

She needs someone to love her.
She just needs someone to hold her
And make all the monsters go away.
Send me out to meet my next store neighbor
To tell her how much she’s worth.
