Rock-a-bye heartache she's back again
She comes and she goes like the wild fickle wind
A vagabond dreamer with a heart none can claim
She follows the sunshine runs from the rain

Rock-a-bye heartache let the hurt press now
Things will be fine now the teardrops will thin
Rock-a-bye heartache go off to sleep now
I'll wake you when she's gone again

[ strings ]
Rock-a-bye heartache she's in my arms now
Soon she will kiss me I won't need you then
Rock-a-bye heartache go off to sleep now
I'll wake you when she's gone again
