about

From the album Home At Last (double LP version)

lyrics

Rock-a-bye baby in the tree top
You know the bough’s gonna break
And the cradle will rock

You're one year older than you were the year before
And each day baby, I love you more and more
You make me laugh when I see you crawl across the floor
What y’ doing boy

Shake your rattle and crawl [x4]
Stay in your stroller when your momma’s shopping at the mall

Well I love my son Michael, he’s as good as a boy can be
And I hug him and I kiss him and I bounce him up upon my knee
And then I put him on the floor and say baby won’t you rock with me
That’s right I say c’mon

Shake your rattle and crawl, shake baby shake yeah
Shake your rattle and crawl, stand up and walk tall
And you can count on me 'cause I’ll be there to catch you when you fall

All right

Well the serpent was hanging from the tree just like a leaf
Oh yeah (shake shake)
And when Eve walked by he said lady I’ll make this brief
(Shake shake)
When Adam took the second bite they rubbed their eyes in disbelief
And God told the devil

Shake your rattle and crawl (Yeh yeh) [x4]
I’ll be stomping on your head, you’ll be dancing at the dead man’s ball

All right (Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh)
(Shake your rattle and crawl) Oh (Yeh yeh) You know what I like
(Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh) That's it
(Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh) Oh yeah

​Yeah
