Carrie Higgins rock a bye

Select language to translate this lyric

Hickory dickory dock, there’s been a lot of talk
About the earthquakes that are rumblin’ all around
Well hey diddle diddle it’s an age old riddle
That preparation helps to calm us down
Hickety pickety, this town ain’t so rickety
And we can take whatever comes along
If we just get on the stick, jack be nimble jack be quick
And when we’re ready we can hold strong
Chorus:
Rock-a-bye and goodnight
Sweet dreams and sleep tight
I’m not scared ‘cause i’m prepared
The ground will be the only thing that shakes
‘cause i’ll be good and ready when it quakes, when it quakes
A tisket a tasket, a green and yellow basket
Prob’ly wouldn’t be strong enough
Get a steel or plastic box that could keep out goldilocks
And when it’s filled up we can hang tough
Hush little baby don’t you cry, mama’s goin’ out to buy
Every little thing we need and prob’ly more
While humpty dumpty’s fallin’ down, dad will keep us safe and sound
When san andreas knocks upon our door
Chorus
Bridge:
Dust mask, radio, wrench and shoes
Books and games to cure the earthquake blues
Spaceblankets, toothbrush, soap and a prayer
Toilet paper, trash bags, it’s all in there
Flashlight, batteries, food and drink
Everything’s here but the kitchen sink
I.d., first aid, seal it airtight
Knowin’ it’s there will help us sleep at night
Chorus
Looby loo looby light - even saturday night
I’ll be good and ready when it quakes, when it quakes
Rock-a-bye, goodnight, sweet dreams and sleep tight
