Giddy-up old boy it's time to go
Vous les vous savoir the love below
Brother, I've got more than you can take
But more than I can do to stay awake

I close my eyes
So I can dream of ways to keep you occupied
So I can lock you up we'll keep it classified
Alright, you're mine tonight, son
When I close my eyes

I can make you sorry when I want
Find some other house for you to haunt
Carry out your sentence in my head
All I have to do is go to bed

I close my eyes
So I can dream of ways to keep you occupied
So I can lock you up we'll keep it classified
Alright, you're mine tonight, son
When I close my eyes

Hide and seek, yellow ducky
Feeling weak or feeling lucky son

Who's got milk, the baby's crying
Shut 'em up, get 'em flying
Little kiddies bought and sold
Cos papa's got a brand new bag of gold

Tonight I'll dream of ways to keep you occupied
So I can lock you up we'll keep it classified
Alright, you're mine tonight, son
When I close my eyes
So right, I'll dream of ways to keep you occupied
Tonight I'll lock you up we'll call it classified
Alright, you're mine tonight, son
When I close my eyes
Shivaree

Shivaree was an Americana and alternative country band from United States founded in 1997, consisting of Ambrosia Parsley (vocals), Danny McGough (keyboard), and Duke McVinnie (guitar). Shivaree is best known for the song "Goodnight Moon", released in 1999, which was featured in the tv series Dawson's Creek, and in films such as Kill Bill: Volume 2, and Silver Linings Playbook. Shivaree officially disbanded in 2007, after a very brief promotional tour of their fourth album, Tainted Love: Mating Calls and Fight Songs, a cover album.

Everyone has different taste in music. Belittling those who have different tastes than others isn't necessary.

In fact, belittling others is almost always unnecessary, and for sure with regard to something subjective as tastes in music. 

Long Live RP and uplifting others whenever possible!

Funny!

I wish she hadn't called it quits. I get that she wanted to be a momma and just raise her kids, but I miss this sound.

As I was listening to this I thought "Somebody probably wrote in to complain about baby-voiced women" as I've seen that elsewhere on RP, and you guys didn't let me down. Get over it! Singers have all kinds of voices and this isn't an affectation, that's just her voice! The variety of voices is one more reason that keeps me coming back to RP. Keep playin' 'em Bill!

 
No, I want every woman to ferociously whoop out numbers like Ethel Merman, or perhaps screech like Janis Joplin.  No, wait, maybe Florence & The Machine's style is the way every woman should sing.
