intro C G C C 
 
C               C7                  F 
He got here and wrinkled scared and cryin' 
        C                               G 
The she took him up and held him to her breast 
       C                G        C    F 
And he sure was glad to get what mama offered 
        C                 G                C 
Then he went to sleep and put his fears to rest 
 
C                 C7             F 
It didn't seem to matter what he needed 
C                                G 
He could always count on mama to supply 
    C                 G         C        F 
And regardless of the sleep she might be losin' 
   C              G              C 
He always found a twinkle in her eye 
 
 F                   G                C 
*There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas 
 F               G                   C 
 Creation's most unique and precious pearls 
 F                  G         C    F 
 And heaven help us always to remember 
          Dm                  G                C 
 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 coxer 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 pearls 
 And heaven help us always to remember 
 That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world 
 
         F                   G                C 
Yes, the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
