Bm Em Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn
G D A Bm
now is the time, for a child to be born
Bm F#m
he'll laugh at the moon and cry for the sun
G D A Bm
and if it's a boy, he'll carry a gun
Em Bm
sang the crow, on the cradle
[Verse 2]
Bm
and if it should be that this baby's a girl
G D A Bm
never you mind if her hair doesn't curl
Bm F#m
with rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
G D A Bm
and a bomber above her wherever she goes
Em Bm
sang the crow, on the cradle
[Verse 3]
Bm
the crow on the cradle, the black and the white
G D A Bm
somebody's baby, is born for a fight
Bm
the crow on the cradle, the white and the black
G D A Bm
somebody's baby, is not coming back
Em Bm
sang the crow, on the cradle
[Instrumental]
Bm Bm G D A
Bm Em Bm
[Verse 4]
Bm
your mother and father will sweat and they'll slave
G D A Bm
to build you a coffin and dig you a grave
Bm
hush-a-bye little one, never you weep
G D A Bm
for we've got a toy that can put you to sleep
Em Bm
sang the crow on the cradle
[Verse 5]
Bm
bring me my gun, and I'll shoot that bird dead
G D A Bm
that's what your mother and father once said
Bm
the crow on the cradle, what can we do
G D A Bm
Ah, this is a thing that I'll leave up to you
Em Bm
sang the crow on the cradle
G D A Bm
this is a thing, that I'll leave up to you
Em Bm
