The title "Rockabye" is taken from the famous nursery-rhyme lullaby "Rock-a-bye baby on the tree top." The song is an electronic pop lullaby, and touches on the hardships of single mothers trying to bring up their babies right. It is sung by Anne-Marie in the role of the mother comforting her baby, and by Sean Paul who gives his support, singing in Jamaican English, so be on the lookout for unconventional grammar in the lines he sings.
