Lyrics:

She was just 16 and all alone, when I came to be
So, we grew up together, my mama, child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
With a rock and roll lullaby

And she'd sing Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
It'll be all right
Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
Just hold on tight
Sing it to me, mama, mama mama mama (sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na, it'll be all right)
Sing it sweet and clear (sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na)
Oh, mama, let me hear that old rock and roll lullaby

Now, we made it through the lonely days, but Lord the nights were long
And we'd dream of better moments, when mama sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
It don't make sense to try
'Cause I just knew lots of love came through in that rock and roll lullaby

When she'd sing Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
It'll be all right
Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
Just hold on tight
I can hear you, mama, mama mama mama (sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na, it'll be all right)
Nothing moves my soul like the sound of a good old rock and roll lullaby

Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
It'll be all right
Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
Just hold on tight
My, my, my, my, my
Nothing moves my soul like the sound of a good old rock and roll lullaby

Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
It'll be all right
Sha-na-nana-na-nana-na-na
Just hold on tight…
