The songs sung by many folk groups tell a story

   Rocking the Cradle - - As I roved out on a fine summer's morning - Down by a clear river I walked all alone. - I heard a poor man making sad lamentation - And thus he began to make his sad moan. - Chorus: - It makes me cry, hush-a-bye baby lie easy - For perhaps your own daddy will never be known. - Though I'm not your daddy, my wife is your mammy - I'm nursing a child that is none of my own. - 2. It's every day she walks with her bully, - And leaves me the cradle to rock all alone. - This innocent babe, he calls me his daddy, - It's little he knows that he's none of my own. - Chorus:

Let not the ballad-singer’s shrilling strain, Amid the swarm thy list’ning ear detain:, Guard well thy pocket; for these sirens stand, To aid the labours of the diving hand ... ~ John Gay
