Movin town to town's no way to raise a child Stayin where there ain't no jobs ain't no good too Did the best we could with what we didn't have Tried to pass the time by loving you Then one day you up and turned away Grew away then walked away from me Left me tired and broken all alone Took the best I had and gave your worst to me When you were just a baby..Lord Meet the hand that rocked your cradle Just about everything I could I gave to fill your need Times they done changed..Lord Aged the hand that rocked your cradle Long lonely times here waiting Since you turned your back on me. Days these days can be so hard hard hard Nuff to make a soul wanna up and die Blessed with you's enough to warm my heart Enough to make a soul wish you'd come by When you were just a baby..Lord Meet the hand that rocked your cradle Almost everything I could I gave to fill your need Times they done changed..Lord Aged the hand that rocked your cradle Long lonely times here waiting Since you turned your back on me.

the hand that rocked my cradle was the one that first slapped my face. "grow up and be like your brothers, Stop being the family's disgrace" Well, what's a 7 year supposed to do when you've got nowhere else to turn? grow up and be my brothers? was that what I'm supposed to learn? I scream at her "go fuck yourself! That's not what I wanna do! The worst thing that could happen to me is to end up alone, like you!"

I was nice and quiet I didn't need to be rocked my mom says i was perfectly happy being left to my own devices so i made a few mistakes along the way... i worked them out for myself. what might be more interesting is the head_that_rocked_by_the_cradle (cradle_of_love?) head banging babysitters and their impact on children

She's a lonely old black woman...must be 70 years old in my mind's eye. Loved her children to death, but she lives so far out in the country that they never take the time to visit. The Stand, like that lady from The Stand that lived in Hemingford Way. She's like that. She's so sad that her situation brings a tear to my eye whenever I sing this song.
