Sleep
Guiding Dreams: Unveiling the Parental Lullaby Wisdom
Lyrics
Sleep, baby, sleep
Encouraging the baby to sleep
Daddy's out to earn your keep
Implying the father is working to provide for the family
Sleep, baby, sleep
Repeating the encouragement for the baby to sleep
Mama's sad, hear her weep
Indicating the mother's sadness and weeping
Watching over you tonight
Expressing a sense of guardianship over the baby
I get the feeling that life's alright
Suggesting a positive feeling about life
You can laugh aloud at those middle-aged fakes
Encouraging laughter at insincere, middle-aged individuals
Well I hope you don't make the same mistakes as me
Expressing a hope that the baby avoids the speaker's mistakes
Don't you do as I do, do as I say
Advising the baby to follow spoken guidance, not necessarily actions
Sleep, baby, sleep
Repeating the earlier encouragement for the baby to sleep
Mama's out to earn your keep
Implying the mother is also working to support the family
Sleep, baby, sleep
Repeating the encouragement for the baby to sleep
Daddy's mad, hear him creep
Suggesting the father is angry and possibly behaving stealthily
Watching over you tonight
Reiterating a sense of guardianship over the baby
I get the feeling that life's alright
Expressing a positive feeling about life
You can laugh aloud at those middle-aged fakes
Encouraging laughter at insincere, middle-aged individuals
Well I hope you don't make the same mistakes as me
Reiterating a hope that the baby avoids the speaker's mistakes
Don't you do as I do, do as I say
Reiterating the advice for the baby to follow spoken guidance
Sleep, baby, sleep
Repeating the earlier encouragement for the baby to sleep
