The Crow On The Cradle (Live at The Half Beat, Yorkville, Toronto, Canada, 10/21/1964)

[Verse 1]
The sheep's in the meadow
The cow's in the corn
Now is the time for a child to be born
Reach for the moon
And laugh at the sun
If he's a boy he'll carry a gun
Sang the crow on the cradle

[Verse 2]
If it should be that this baby's a girl
Never you mind if her hair doesn't curl
Rings on her fingers
And bells on her toes
And a bomber above her wherever she goes
Sang the crow on the cradle

[Verse 3]
Rock-a-by-baby
The black and the white
Somebody's baby was born for a fight
Rock-a-by-baby
The white and the black
Somebody's baby is not coming back
Sang the crow on the cradle

[Verse 4]
Now you're Mami and Papi
They scrape and they save
For they build you a coffin and they dig you a grave
Hush-a-bye little one, never you weep
'Cause we've got a toy that can put you to sleep
Sang the crow on the cradle

[Verse 5]
Bring me a gun, and I'll shoot that bird dead
That's what your Mami and your Papi once said
Crow on the cradle, tell me what shall I do?
That is a thing I'll leave up to you
Sang the crow on the cradle
Sang the crow on the cradle
