Lullaby

by Lux Lucre

Kaylee grew up staring

at the stars

on a prairie moon with fields and saloon bars

her parents grew big vegetables

everyone farmed there

they hung out with folks like

ranchers and blacksmiths at country fairs

she feels safe now

flying through the starry tracks

and from the bridge I can tell that

she loves this ship and she can relax

and just before

she fixes Serenity's drive

Kaylee sings to it a lullaby,

she says

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

firefly

she's travelled half the 'verse

seen many a great city

The machinery talks to her all the while

and Simon and Inara tell her

she's so pretty

but she's most pretty still

when her face contains a smile

`cause even her smile

can take off the curse

and she's seen her share of devils

in this big wide 'verse

But, everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

firefly

I told her I ain't so sure

about this freight

it's hard to get a job in this world

and keep legally straight

seems like everyone here agrees

it's kind of like Dodge City with Chinese,

but,

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly

everything's gonna be all right

firefly, firefly, firefly, bye, bye

bye, bye
