Thumbelina Lyrics - Pretenders

Hush little baby, don't you cry 

When we get to Tucson you'll see why 

We left the snowstorms and the thunder and rain 

For the desert sun, we're gonna be born again 

What's important in this world 

A little boy, a little girl 

Hush little darling, go to sleep 

Look out the window and count the sheep 

That dot the hillsides and the fields of wheat 

Across America as we cross America 

What's important here today 

The broken line on the highway 

All the love in the world for you, girl 

Thumbelina in a great big scary world 

All the love in the world for you, girl 

Take my hand and we'll make it through this world 

Hush little baby, my poor little thing 

You've been shuffled about like a pawned wedding ring 

It must seem strange, love was here then gone 

And the Oklahoma sunrise becomes the Amarillo dawn 

What's important in this life 

Ask the man who's lost his wife
