Lyrics to the chorus. Now hush, little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby But I promise mama's gon' be alright (.) Now hush, little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby But I promise mama's gon' be alright. And if you ask me to Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird I'ma give you the world I'ma buy a diamond ring for you I'ma sing for you I'll do anything for you to see you smile And if that mocking bird don't sing and that ring don't shine I'ma break that birdie's neck I'd go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat, don't fuck with dad (haha)
Yeah, I know sometimes Things may not always make sense to you right now But hey, what'd daddy always tell you? Straighten up, little soldier Stiffen up that upper lip What you cryin' about? You got me Hailie, I know you miss your mom, and I know you miss your dad When I'm gone, but I'm tryna give you the life that I never had I can see you're sad even when you smile, even when you laugh I can see it in your eyes, deep inside, you wanna cry 'Cause you're scared, I ain't there? Daddy's with you in your prayers No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it Lainie, uncle's crazy, ain't he? Yeah, but he loves you, girl, and you better know it We're all we got in this world, when it spins, when it swirls When it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls Lookin' puzzled, in a daze, I know it's confusing you Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the news I try to keep you sheltered from it, but somehow, it seems The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me All the things growin' up as daddy that he had to see Daddy don't want you to see, but you see just as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me But things have got so bad between us I don't see us ever being together ever again Like we used to be when we was teenagers But then, of course, everything always happens for a reason I guess it was never meant to be But it's just something we have no control over, and that's what destiny is But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep Maybe one day, we'll wake up, and this will all just be a dream Now hush, little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now, and we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby But I promise mama's gon' be alright Huh, it's funny I remember back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up and stuck 'em under the tree And said some of 'em were from me, 'cause daddy couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget that Christmas, I sat up the whole night crying 'Cause daddy felt like a bum, see, daddy had a job But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom And at the time, every house that we lived in Either kept gettin' broken into and robbed Or shot up on the block And your mom was savin' money for you in a jar Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars 'til someone broke in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad, it broke your mama's heart And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart Mom and dad was arguin' a lot So mama moved back on to Chalmers in a flat one-bedroom apartment And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara And that's when daddy went to California with his CD And met Dr. Dre, and flew you and mama out to see me But daddy had to work, you and mama had to leave me Then you started seeing daddy on the TV, and mama didn't like it And you and Lainie were too young to understand it Papa was a rolling stone, mama developed a habit And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first-hand 'Cause all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud Now I'm sittin' in this empty house Just reminiscin', lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now Wow, guess you pretty much are, and daddy's still here Lainie, I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here I like the sound of that, yeah, it's got a ring to it, don't it? Shh, mama's only gone for the moment Now hush, little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now, and we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby But I promise mama's gon' be alright And if you ask me to, daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird I'ma give you the world I'ma buy a diamond ring for you, I'ma sing for you I'll do anything for you to see you smile And if that mockingbird don't sing, and that ring don't shine I'ma break that birdie's neck I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat, don't fuck with dad
Awesome piano skills! Mockingbird is my favorite song, and on piano, especially this version, the song gets a hundred times better. Idk why this video is so underrated...
You can make the whole melody sound much more beautiful if you play the "E" note again in the right hand at the parts like 00:07 so its "E - B - EB (played as eight notes) - A" or just "E - B - E (quarter note) - A". Check Emmas audition at the voice kids germany of the song, the band played the beat like this from the start and it sounds so beautiful.
Now hush, little baby, don't you cry Everything's gonna be alright Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now, and we don't know why We feel how we feel inside It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby But I promise mama's gon' be alright And if you ask me to daddys gonna buy you a mockingbird imma give you the world imma buy a diamond ring for you imma sing for you i'll do anything for you to see you smile. and if that mockingbird don't sing and the ring don't shine imma break that birddies neck. I'll go back to the jewler who sold it to ya AND make him eat all the carat don't __ with dad
