He got here and wrinkled scared and cryin'

C G

The she took him up and held him to her breast

C G C F

And he sure was glad to get what mama offered

C G C

Then he went to sleep and put his fears to rest

C C7 F

It didn't seem to matter what he needed

He could always count on mama to supply

C G C F

And regardless of the sleep she might be losin'

C G C

He always found a twinkle in her eye

*There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas

F G C

Creation's most unique and precious pearls

F G C F

And heaven help us always to remember

Dm G C

That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world

She taught him all the attributes of greatness

That she knew he couldn't learn away from home

And by the time she wore the coxer off her bible

Her hair was gray and her little man was gone

*There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas

Creation's most unique and precious pearls

And heaven help us always to remember

That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world

F G C

Yes, the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
