Every night that I put Lily to sleep she demands "sing songs!" Usually by that time of night I lack sufficient brain computational power to come up with more than 2 or 3 songs and their full lyrics. If she deems a certain song unacceptable she pitches a fit a couple of notes in. If she likes the song she tries to sing along. These songs are starting to get old so it's time to make a list of new ones to try. If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
Acceptable songs:
Itsy Bitsy Spider (“Issy Bissy Spire”)
Rock-a-bye Baby (“Rock Baby”)
ABC (“C C C”)
Mama Loves Baby by Solange from Yo Gabba Gabba (“Sunshine!”)

I Am Weary (Let Me Rest) by the Cox Family
Didn’t Leave Nobody But The Baby from the O Brother, Where Art Thou soundtrack
Down to the River to Pray by Alison Krauss
Virginia by Tori Amos
Wampum Prayer by Tori Amos
My Home Sweet Home from the Final Fantasy V: Dear Friends soundtrack

Unacceptable Songs:
