Rockabye
Clean Bandit"The song is about doing anything you can to give your child a decent life, and what you have to sacrifice and go through with to do that. In the song and in the music video we made, the mother works as an exotic dancer in order to fund the life with her child."
Call it love and devotion
Call it the mom’s adoration (foundation)
A special bond of creation, hah
For all the single mums out there
Going through frustration
Clean Bandit,
Sean-Da-Paul,
Anne-marie, sing,
make them hear
She works the night, by the water
She's gonna stress,
so far away from my father's daughter
She just wants a life for her baby
All on her own, no one will come
She's got to save him (daily struggle)
She tells him "ooh love"
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you
(stay up there, stay up there)
She tells him
"your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life
(straight)
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do"
(stay up there, stay up there)
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Rockabye, no
(Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye) (oh)
Rockabye, yeah, yeah
(Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye)
Single mom what you doing out there?
Facing the hard life without no fear
Just see and know that you really care
'Cause any obstacle come you well prepared
And no mamma you never shed tear
'Cause you haffi set things year after year
And you give the youth love beyond compare
You find the school fee and the bus fare
Hmmmm more when paps disappear
In a wrong bar can't find him nowhere
Steadily you work flow,
heavily you know so you nah stop
No time no time fi a jeer
Now she gotta a six year old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep all the cold
When he looks her in the eyes
He don't know he's safe when she says
"Ooh love"
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you
So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry

Play with the song, fill the gaps
Legend
- The video player plays from the time specified
- Chorus
- People Talking
Used to settle a baby or child down to sleep. To rock a cradle in order to lull a baby or child to sleep.
Rock A Bye Baby is a beautiful song. It casts a spell of silence and peace.
Cause blood to flow.
Lose skin.
Outhouse used for storage
The soldier was arrested for shedding blood in the village
emotional tie
The two brothers have a real bond
I’ve got to
I have to
