ROCK ME MY BABY
(Long / Heather)
as recorded by
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Well a-put your arms around me now
And try your best to squeeze me.
Love me baby, you know how,
Yes, rock me my baby!
Well rock a-like a hickory dickory dock,
Rockabye my baby!
Up and down, around the clock,
Well rock me my baby!
Well a-plant your kisses on my lips
And make me bubble brightly.
Thrill me to my fingertips
Well rock me my baby!
Well rock a-like a hickory dickory dock,
Rockabye my baby!
Up and down, around the clock,
Well rock me my baby!
(Rock me my baby, oh rock me my baby)
Well a-tell me that you love me too
And say you'll never leave me.
No-one loves you like I do,
So rock me my baby!
Well rock a-like a hickory dickory dock,
Rockabye my baby!
Up and down, around the clock,
Well rock me my baby!
Tell me that you love me too
And say you'll never leave me.
No-one loves you like I do,
So rock me my baby!
Well rock a-like a hickory dickory dock,
Rockabye my baby!
Up and down, around the clock,
Well rock me my baby!
