Lyrics
A little baby told God, "Hey, I'm kind of scared
Don't really know if I want to go down there
From here, it looks like a little blue ball
That's a great big place, and I'm so small
Why can't I just stay here with you?
Did I make you mad? Don't you want me too?"
And God said, "Oh child, of course I do
But there's somebody special waiting for you"
So, hush now, baby, don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life
Is making sure you're always gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender, tough, and strong
It's almost time to go and meet your mom
You'll never have a better friend
Or a warmer touch to tuck you in
She'll kiss your bruises, your bumps, and scrapes
And anytime you hurt, her heart's gonna break
So, hush now, baby, don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life
Is making sure you're always gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender, tough, and strong
It's almost time to go and meet your mom
Now, when she's talking to you, make sure you listen close
'Cause she's gonna teach you everything you'll ever need to know
Like how to mind your manners, to love and laugh and dream
And she'll put you on the path that'll bring you back to me
So, hush now, little baby, don't you cry
'Cause there's someone down there waiting whose only goal in life
Is making sure you're always gonna be alright
A loving angel, tender, tough, and strong
Come on, child, it's time to meet your mom
