Lyrics

[Intro: Sean Paul]

Call it love and devotion

Call it a mom’s adorationFoundationA special bond of creation, hahFor all the single moms out thereGoing through frustrationClean Bandit, Sean-da-Paul, Anne-MarieSing, make them hear

[Verse 1: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
She works the nights, by the water
She's gone astray, so far away
From her father's daughter
She just wants a life for her baby
All on her own, no one will come
She's got to save him (daily struggle)

[Pre-Chorus 1: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
She tells him, "Oh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"
(Stay out there, stay out there)
She tells him, "Your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I've got to do"
(Stay out there, stay out there)

[Chorus: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Rockabye, no

[Drop: Sean Paul + Anne-Marie]
Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye
(Rockabye, yeah oh oh)
Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye

[Verse 2: Sean Paul + Anne-Marie]
Single mum how you doing out there?
Facing the hard life, without no fear (Yeah)Just so you know that you really care
'Cause any obstacle come you’re well prepared (Oh no)And no mama, you never shed tear
'Cause you have to shed things year after year
And you give the youth love beyond compare (Yeah)You find his school fee and the bus fare (Yeah)Mmm Marie, the paps' disappear
In the wrong bar can’t find him nowhere
Steadily you work flow, everything you know
You know say you nuh stop the time fi a jear

[Bridge: Anne-Marie]
Now she got a six-year-old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold
When he looks in her eyes
He don't know he is safe

[Pre-Chorus 2: Anne-Marie]
When she says "oh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"

[Chorus: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
So, rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rockabye baby, rockabye
I'm gonna rock you
Rockabye baby, don't you cry
(Oh-badda-bang-bang-bang, alright then)
Rockabye, no

[Drop: Sean Paul + Anne-Marie]
Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye
(Rockabye, yeah oh oh)
Rockabye-rocka-rocka-rocka-bye

[Drop 2: Sean Paul]
Rockabye, don't bother cry
Lift up your head, lift it up to the sky
Rockabye, don't bother cry
Angels surround you, just dry your eye

[Bridge: Anne-Marie]
Now she got a six-year-old
Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold
When he looks in her eyes
He don't know he is safe when she says

[Pre-Chorus 1: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
She tells him, "Oh, love, no one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you"
(Stay out there, stay out there)
She tells him, "Your life ain't gonna be nothing like my life(stay)You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I got to do"
(Stay out there, stay out there)

[Chorus: Anne-Marie + Sean Paul]
