Clean Bandit - Rockabye (Lyrics) feat. Sean Paul & Anne-Marie

[00:00.78] Call it love and devotion

[00:03.32] Call it a mom's adoration

[00:05.30] Foundation

[00:06.28] A special bond of creation,

[00:09.06] Ha

[00:10.81] For all the single moms out there

[00:12.79] Going through frustration

[00:13.82] Clean Bandit, Sean-da-Paul, Anne-Marie

[00:16.56] Sing, make them hear

[00:17.80] She works at nights by the water

[00:22.57] She's gone astray so far away

[00:24.80] From my father's daughter

[00:27.28] She just wants a life for her baby

[00:31.81] All on her own, no one will come

[00:34.80] She's got to save him

[00:36.31] Daily struggle

[00:36.81] She tells him, "Ooh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love.

[00:41.06] I'm gonna give you all of my love.

[00:43.06] Nobody matters like you."

[00:45.28] Stay up there, stay up there

[00:46.30] She tells him, "Your life ain't gon' be nothing like my life." (Straight!)

[00:50.56] "You're gonna grow and have a good life.

[00:52.80] I'm gonna do what I've got to do."

[00:54.82] Stay up there, stay up there
