The Crow On The Cradle - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)/Graham Nash
The sheep's in the meadow
The cow's in the corn
Now is the time
For a child to be born
He'll laugh at the moon
And cry for the sun
And if it's a boy he'll carry a gun
Sang the crow on the cradle
And if it should be
That this baby's a girl
Never you mind
If her hair doesn't curl
With rings on her fingers
And bells on her toes
And a bomber above her
Wherever she goes
Sang the crow on the cradle
The crow on the cradle
The black and the white
Somebody's baby is born for a fight
The crow on the cradle
The white and the black
Somebody's baby is not coming back
Sang the crow on the cradle
Your mother and father
Will sweat and they'll save
To build you a coffin
And dig you a grave
Hush-a-bye little one
Never you weep
For we've got a toy
That can put you to sleep
Sang the crow on the cradle
Bring me my gun
And I'll shoot that bird dead
That's what your mother and father once said
The crow on the cradle
What can we do
I this is a thing
That I'll leave up to you
Sang the crow on the cradle
Ah this is a thing
That I'll leave up to you
Sang the crow on the cradle
