<P> "Hush, Little Baby" is a traditional lullaby, thought to have been written in the Southern United States . Like most folk songs, the author and date of origin are unknown . The lyrics promise all kinds of rewards to the child if he or she is quiet . The simple structure allows more verses to be added ad lib . </P> <P> The song has been performed and recorded by many artists including Joan Baez, Regina Spektor, Nina Simone, The Weavers and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir . Additionally, the song has been adapted into pop songs such as Maurice King's "Hambone", Inez and Charlie Foxx's "Mockingbird" and Bo Diddley's eponymous song "Bo Diddley", as well as Bobby McFerrin and Yo - Yo Ma's "Hush Little Baby" and Eminem's "Mockingbird". </P>
