"Rock & Roll Lullaby" by B.J. Thomas

 She was just sixteen and all alone when I came to be
 So we grew up together, my mama-child and me
 Now things were bad and she was scared but whenever I would
cry
 Shed calm my fear and dry my tears
 With a rock and roll lullaby

 And shed sing
 Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, itll be all right
 Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, just hold on tight
 Sing it to me, mama
 My, my, my, my mama
 Sing it sweet and clear, oh mama let me hear
 That old rock and roll lullaby

 brief instrumental interlude

 We made it through the lonely days but, Lord, the nights
were long
 And wed dream of better mornins when mama sang a song
 Now I cant recall the words at all, it dont make sense to
try
 cause I just knew lotsa love came through
 In that rock and roll lullaby

 And shed sing
 Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, itll be all right
 Sha-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, just hold on tight
 I can hear ya, mama
 My, my, my, my mama
 Nothin moves my soul like the sound of the good old
 Rock and roll lullaby

 Duane Eddys guitar and Beach Boy-type scat and then Thomas
joins in
 Just hold on tight
 My, my, my, my mama
 Nothin moves my soul like the sound of the good old
 Rock and roll lullaby
