Naomi was singing through her bedtime songs after dinner today. She got Su La Li just right, as well as O Christmas Tree and The Little Drummer Boy. Hush Little Baby was sung like this:
Hush little baby, don't say a word,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring turns to brass,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
It turns out that Papa, in Naomi's version of the song, always buys the baby a diamond ring, no matter the circumstances or the rhyme scheme.
