(ellas mcdaniel) 1958
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Hey little baby dont you cry,
Mama gonna drop around,
Hey little baby dont say a word,
Mama gonna whoop you bout somethin you heard.
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Mama gonna buy you a diamond ring,
If that diamond rings brass,
Mama gonna buy a lookin glass,
If that lookin glass is broke,
Mama gonna buy a horse and coach,
If that horse and coach turn over,
Mama gonna buy you a dog named rover.
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
A coonskin alligator hide,
Make into shoes baby, jus like mine,
Dont be scared to put em on your feet,
Scared bout me, jus cant be beat.
Hush your mouth!
Hush your mouth!
