Need a tune (buy, name, baby, words)

[JMoulder]

Does anyone know the actual words to the nursery rhyme, "hush little baby..."

[mariatherese]

Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mockin'bird

If that mockin'bird don't sing
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring


If that diamond ring turns brass,
Mama's gonna buy you a looking glass


If that looking glass gets broke
Mama's gonna buy you a billy goat


If that billy goat don't pull,
Mama's gonna buy you a cart and mule


If that cart and mule turn over
Mama's gonna buy you a dog named Rover


If that dog named Rover won't bark
Mama's gonna buy you a horse and cart


If that Horse and Cart fall down,
Then you'll be the sweetest little baby in town

[lookingfortheperfectplace]

I think it is -
and if that billy goat won't pull
momma's gonna buy you a cart and bull

i just googled it really quick. i dont know the lyrics by heart. i imagine with a song like that, there are many different versions... like a joke that has been told too many times.
