Well, Abby, the Brahms Lullaby is suspicious, what with that line about being stuck with little nails. I think Brahms should be taken in for questioning.
I've crosslinked a lot of lullaby threads above, mostly ones of the ilk you seek. Don't forget "All the Pretty Little Horses" (Bees an' the butterflies peckin' out his eyes); and "What'll We Do With the Baby-O." Maybe we should take Peggy Seeger and Rosalie Sorrels in for questioning, too.
