He Got Here Red And Wrinkled, Scared And Crying


And She Took Him Up And Held Him To Her Breast


And He Sure Was Glad To Get What Mama Offered


And He Went To Sleep And Put His Fears To Rest





There Ought To Be A Hall Of Fame For Mamas


Creation's Most Unique And Precious Pearl


And Heaven Help Us Always To Remember


That The Hand That Rocks The Cradle Rules The World





She Taught Him All The Attributes Of Greatness


That She Knew He Couldn't Learn Away From Home


And By The Time She Wore The Cover Off Her Bible


Her Hair Was Gray And Her Little Man Was Gone





There Ought To Be A Hall Of Fame For Mamas


Creation's Most Unique And Precious Pearl


And Heaven Help Us Always To Remember


That The Hand That Rocks The Cradle Rules The World
