GUEST,Nathan Salsburg	Origins: 'Go Rock the Cradle Alone'? (6)	Origins: 'Go Rock the Cradle Alone'?	01 Jun 08
Hi - I'm wondering if anyone can offer insight into the origins of (or is familiar with other songs containing) the passage: Go rock the cradle, go rock the cradle, Go rock the cradle alone How many men've rocked another man's babe When he thought he was rocking his own? I heard it sung in a song bearing lyric bits of In the Pines and Short Life of Trouble, to the tune of In the Pines, but can find nothing on this stanza. Many thanks.
