Hush Little Baby (US South - Appalachia)
And if that billy goat don’t pull,
Mama’s gonna buy you a cart and bull.
And if that cart and bull turns over,
Mama’s gonna buy you a dog named Rover.
And if that dog named Rover don’t bark,
Mama’s gonna buy you a horse and cart.
And if that horse and cart breaks down,
You’ll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
