O Can You Sew Cushions

Mitchell Shaw - Piano and Violin

Wayne Morris - Bass Guitar


Oh, can ye sew cushions and can ye sew sheets
And can ye sing baluloo when the bairn greets?
Chorus: And hie and baw birdie and hie and baw lamb
And hie and baw birdie my bonnie wee lamb

I biggit the cradle all on the tree top
And the wind it did blaw and the cradle did rock
Chorus

Now hush-a-ba, lammie and hush-a-ba, dear
And hush-a-ba, lammie thy minnie is here
Chorus

The wild wind is ravin' thy minnie heart's sair
The wild wind is ravin' and you dinna care
Chorus

Ye're rockin fu' sweetly upon my warm knee
Your daddy's a-rockin' upon the salt sea
Chorus
