Hush-A-Bye Hard Times - 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

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

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

So hush a bye baby don't cry no more

Your mama can't give you what you're crying for

Hush a bye hard times go ye away

I don't intend to be treated this way

So hush a bye baby

Hush a bye hard times

Hush a bye baby

Don't cry no more

Hush a bye hard times

Hush a bye baby

Hush a bye hard times

Come ye no more

Many years you have lingered around my cabin door

Hush a bye hard times

Come ye no more

Hush a bye baby

Hush a bye hard times

Hush a bye baby

Don't cry no more

Hush a bye hard times

Hush a bye baby

Hush a bye hard times

Come ye no more
