Little baby told God, hey I'm kind of scared. Don't really know if I want to go down there. From here it looks like a little blue ball That's a great big place and I'm so small.
Why can't I just, stay here with you? Did I make you mad, don't you want me too? God said oh child, of course I do But there's somebody special waiting for you
So hush now baby, don't you cry 'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life Is making sure you're always gonna be alright A loving angel tender, tough and strong It's almost time to go and meet your mom.
You'll never have a better friend Or a warmer touch to tuck you in She'll kiss your bruises, your bumps and scrapes And anytime you hurt Her heart's gonna break
So hush now baby, don't you cry 'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life Is making sure you're always gonna be alright A loving angel tender, tough and strong It's almost time to go and meet your mom.
And when she's talking to you make sure you listen close 'Cause she's gonna teach you everything you'll ever need to know Like how to mind your manners, to love and laugh and dream She'll put you on the path that bring you back to me
So, hush now little baby, don't you cry 'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life Is making sure you're always gonna be alright A loving angel tender, tough and strong Come on child it's time, to meet your mom
