What's your favorite lullabye?
My son has to hear : "Walkin Cane" ( redone by the Knitters, but the original I'm not so sure), "You are my sunshine" ( which has many variants, such as "you are my baby ducky") and "silver Wings" ( as redone by the Knitters again, Merle Haggard orginally) everynight before he goes to bed.
Sometimes "Space Oddity" by Bowie will do the trick too, as well "Walking after Midnight" by Patsy Cline.
And yes, my little one seems to like a lot of classic country music...but he also loves the Violent Femmes and the B52's. Go figure!
Answers:
Mockingbird (hush little baby, don't say a word. . .)
That one about Molly Malone - where she's selling cockels and mussels
Those two seem to do the trick - when she was an infant, I would sing her "Banana Pancakes" by Jack Johnson
the only songs i can remember the words to when my daughter is fussy or crying is 'rock-a-bye baby' and 'old macdonald' lol, i'm sure there are much sweeter songs i could sing but i have a hard time thinking of them when i'm under pressure!!!
