Baby cry moon cry
Mama cry hungry
River dry earth sigh
Baby cry moon
Baby cry why moon
River dry high noon
Mama sigh last try
Baby cry moon

Mama make way – baby-shaped moon pie
Baby halfway ‘tween sleep and a lullaby
Somebody find her a piece of the sunrise
Something to play with for baby moon

Baby cry moon cry
Mama cry hungry
River dry earth sigh
Baby cry moon
Baby cry why moon
River dry high noon
Mama sigh last try
Baby cry moon

Baby can see late summer light show
Shootin’ up the night where the innocent rarely go
Give me some sleep and I’ll dream you the first snow
Piled up pillows for baby moon

Baby cry moon cry
Mama cry hungry
River dry earth sigh
Baby cry moon
Baby cry why moon
River dry high noon
Mama sigh last try
Baby cry moon

Mama sigh last try
Baby cry moon
