lyrics

Cryingggggggggg . . . oh there . . .
Sleep baby sleep . . . sleep baby sleep . . .
Little child crying, crying, crying in the night
little child crying, let me hold you hold you tight.
Do you have a hunger? Do you have a thirst?
Do you need a change? Tell me what is worst.
Did you have a night mare? Did you see the night flare?
Did you hear a sound? Did you feel the bomb?
Do you want your papa? Do you want your mom?
Do you cry for someone -- someone who is gone?
I don't have no diamonds. I don't have no gold.
But I have love and hope. Here's someone to hold.
Do you have a hunger? Do you have a thirst?
Do you need a change? A change in this world?
Little child crying, crying, crying in the night
little child crying, let me hold you hold you tight.
