The first printed version from Mother Goose's Melody(London, c. 1765), has the following lyrics:Hush-a-by babyOn the tree top,When the wind blowsThe cradle will rock.When the bough breaks,The cradle will fall,And down will fall babyCradle and all.

The most common version used today is:Rock-a-bye baby, on the treetop,When the wind blows, the cradle will rock,When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall,And down will come baby, cradle and all.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
