And The Cradle Will Rock


Well, they say it's kinda frightning
How this younger generation swings
You know, it's more than
Just some new sensation

Well, the kid is into losin' sleep
And he don't come home for half the week
You know, it's more than
Just an aggravation

And the cradle will rock
Yes, the cradle
Cradle will rock
And I say, rock on
Rock on

And when some local kid gets down
They try and drum him out of town
They say, you coulda at least faked it, boy
Fake it boy

At an early age he hits the street
And winds up tied with who he meets
And he's unemployed
(Unemployed)

And the cradle will rock
Yes, the cradle
Cradle will rock
And I say, rock on
Rock on

Have you seen Junior's grades

Well, they say it's kinda frightning
How this younger generation swings
You know, it's more than
Just some new sensation

Well, the kid is into losin' sleep
And he don't come home for half the week
You know, it's more than
Just an aggravation

And the cradle will rock
Yes, the cradle
Cradle will rock
And I say, rock on
Rock on

And when some local kid gets down
They try and drum him out of town
They say, you coulda least faked it, boy
Fake it boy

At an early age he hits the street
And winds up tied with who he meets
And he's unemployed
His folks are overjoyed

And the cradle will rock
Yeah, the cradle will rock
And I say, rock on
Rock on
