Baby's Broken Lullaby

Hush, little baby, don’t you cry
Listen to my lullaby

Sometimes things turn out this way
Daddy’s sorry he can’t stay

Please don’t let out such a fuss
As you watch him stolen back from us

Why does baby sob so hard
With her ravaged tears so marred?

Hush, little baby, don’t say a word
To think it’s your fault is absurd

America wants Daddy’s time
He’ll squirm through muck and mud and grime

And then I got the dreaded call
Comrades watched your daddy fall

So as you drift off into sleep
Ignore as Mommy starts to weep

Hush, little baby, don't get broke
watch as life goes up in smoke

Hush, little baby, don’t you cry
It’s not your fault that Daddy died

Please let me know what you think!
