Clean Bandit "Rockabye" lyrics

Rockabye

Call it love and devotionCall it a mom's adorationFoundationA special bond of creation,Ha

For all the single moms out thereGoing through frustrationClean Bandit, Sean-da-Paul, Anne-MarieSing, make them hear

She works the nights by the waterShe's gone astray so far awayFrom my father's daughterShe just wants a life for her babyAll on her own, no one will comeShe's got to save him

Daily struggle

She tells him, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love.I'm gonna give you all of my love.Nobody matters like you."

Stay out there, stay out there

She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life.You're gonna grow and have a good life.I'm gonna do what I've got to do."

Stay out there, stay out there

So, rockabye baby, rockabyeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you crySomebody's got youRockabye baby, rockabyeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you cryRockabye, no

Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-byeRockabye, yeah, oh, ohRockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye

Single mama, you doing out thereFacing the hard life without no fear, yeahJust so you know that you really care'Cause any obstacle come you're well prepared,Oh, noNo, mama, you never shed tear'Cause you have to shed things year after yearAnd you give the youth love beyond compare, yeahYou find his school fee and the bus fare, yeah

Mmm, Marie, the pops' disappearIn the round back can't find him nowhereSteadily you work flow, everything you knowSay you nah stop no time – no time for your jear

Now she got a six-year-oldTrying to keep him warmTrying to keep out the coldWhen he looks in her eyesHe don't know he is safe

When she says, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love.I'm gonna give you all of my love.Nobody matters like you."

So, rockabye baby, rockabyeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you crySomebody's got youRockabye baby, rockabyeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you cry

Oh-badda-bang-bang-bang, alright then

Rockabye, no

Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-byeRockabye, yeah, oh, ohRockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye

Rockabye, don't bother cryLift up your head, lift it up to the skyRockabye, don't bother cryAngels surround you, just dry your eye

Now she got a six-year-oldTrying to keep him warmTrying to keep out the coldWhen he looks in her eyesHe don't know he is safe when she says...

She tells him, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love.I'm gonna give you all of my love.Nobody matters like you."

Stay out there, stay out there

She tells him, "Your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life. Stay.You're gonna grow and have a good life.I'm gonna do what I've got to do."

So, rockabye baby, rockabyeRockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-byeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you cryRockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-byeSomebody's got youRockabye baby, rockabyeRockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-byeI'm gonna rock youRockabye baby, don't you cryOh-badda-bang-bang-bang, alright thenRockabye

Rockabye, don't bother cryLift up your head, lift it up to the sky. RockabyeRockabye, don't bother cry, yeahAngels surround you, just dry your eye, yeah
