Lyrics:

One, two, three, four, five.
Once I caught a fish alive,
Six, seven, eight, nine ,ten,
Then I let it go again.
Why did you let it go?
Because it bit my finger so.
Which finger did it bite?
The little one on the right.

Acoustic lullabies help babies have sweet dreams.  Our lullabies have been thoughtfully designed to encourage sleep in young children and babies. 

When recording lullabies for babies there are many considerations such as pitch, rhythm, instrumentation, tempo and harmony that should be factored in due to the sensitive hearing of infants.   We know what makes a safe and effective lullaby CD and we ensure all of our releases adhere to our strict guidelines.


Brahm's Lullaby

The only original track on CD2 of 'Dance and Dream'.  'Sweet Little Dreams' was written exclusively for Lullaby Babies by Rich Jenkinson

Lyrics:

There's a twinkle in your eyes every time i look at you
A thousand stars in a thousand skies couldn't shine as bright or true
So hold my hand and let's close our eyes and let's dream of all the days we have ahead
As you have got so much love and so much joy to spread

So dream, dream
Sweet little dreams
Dream, dream
Sweet little dreams

Every blanket in every crib started with a single thread 
Just like your life of peace and joy starts here as you rest your little head 

And dream, dream
Sweet little dreams
Dream, dream
Sweet little dreams

Shine your light
For the world tonight
Just shine your light
And everything will be alright

So hold my hand and let's close our eyes and let's dream of all the days we have ahead

As you have got so much love and so much joy to spread

So dream, dream
Sweet little dreams
Dream, dream
Sweet little dreams

Lyrics:

Can you point to your toes?
Can you point to your nose?

Wave your arms in the air
Now shake your hair
Be a grizzly bear
Now freeze

Can you point to your toes?
Can you point to your nose?
Can you stamp your feet?
Can you clap this beat?
Can you reach to the sky?
Can you pretend to fly?

And dance
Just dance
Just dance
And dance
And dance
And take a bow

Lyrics:

 The grand old Duke of York,
 He had ten thousand men;
 He marched them up to the top of the hill,
 And he marched them down again.
 
 And when they were up, they were up,
 And when they were down, they were down,
 And when they were only half-way up,
 They were neither up nor down.

 The grand old Duke of York,
 He had ten thousand men;
 He marched them up to the top of the hill,
 And he marched them down again.
 
 And when they were up, they were up,
 And when they were down, they were down,
 And when they were only half-way up,
 They were neither up nor down.

We were challenged to record a UK version of the popular Alphabet Song that has helped countless children to learn the alphabet over the years.  As the Americanised classic version pronounces the final letter as 'Zee' instead of 'Zed' many English children have found this confusing.  The song uses the 'Vee' sound to rhyme with 'Zee' and we therefore needed to come up with a way to rhyme the final sound 'Zed' in the UK version.  Take a listen to see how we did it!

The song that's playing is an acoustic version of the traditional lullaby "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" 

Lyrics:

Twinkle twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are,
Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky,
Twinkle twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are.

 

When the blazing sun is gone, When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light, Twinkle twinkle through the night,
Twinkle twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are.

Then the traveller in the dark, Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He couldn’t see which way to go, If you didn’t twinkle so,
Twinkle twinkle little star, How I wonder what you are.

Lyrics:

Hush little baby don’t say a word, Papa’s gonna buy you a mockingbird,
And if that mockingbird won’t sing, Papa’s gonna buy you a diamond ring,
And if that diamond ring turns brass, Papa’s gonna buy you a looking glass,
And if that looking glass gets broke, Papa’s gonna buy you a billy goat,
And if that billy goat won’t pull, Papa’s gonna buy you a cart and bull,
And if that cart and bull turn over, Papa’s gonna buy you a dog named Rover,
And if that dog named Rover won’t bark, Papa’s gonna buy you a horse and cart,
And if that horse and cart fall down, You’ll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

When I am King dilly dilly you shall be Queen

Eine Kleine Nachtsmusik

I'm an ex singer-songwriter from York, UK. I started Lullaby Babies in 2005 after I wanted a change from life on the road. In addition to a few original signals, I recorded several albums for babies and young children in my home in York using acoustic instruments- everything you hear on the tracks is played by me. I have since had another career change and I'm now training to be a clinical psychologist. I sold the retail arm of Lullaby Babies, but the music side still belongs to me. 

I'm afraid they'll be no new albums so please enjoy what I've recorded already- I guess you could call them limited edition!

Thanks to all those who give their kind words and support- it is very much appreciated.
