Little Bitty Betty

little bitty betty
you're a baby
little bitty betty
could you maybe
go to sleep now
your mama's so tired

little bitty betty
little lady
underneath the tree
cool and shady
get lazy with me
that's all i require

dreaming's a vacation from being awake
all you gotta do is take
a little nap with me
are you ready?

little bitty betty
gettin' weepy
i'm gonna rock ya steady
till you're sleepy
rollin' the stroller around
but your eyes are open wider

little bitty betty
she's a fighter
no jack or jim or eddy
could hold a match beside her
why don't you lay down your arms
and just retire?

come with me to the land of make believe
you'll float your boat into a dream
if you fall asleep with me
are you ready?

little bitty betty
baby listen
curl up there with your teddy
you don't know what you're missin'
one baby for sale
will anybody buy her?

little bitty betty
i love you baby
but oh boy baby betty
you drive me crazy
go to sleep now
your mama's so tired
