One of the most famous lullabies, "Rock-a-bye Baby".
Rock a bye baby on the tree top,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock,
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,
And down will come baby, cradle and all.
The author of this lullaby isn't known. The Great American Baby Almanac reports that it was written by a pilgrim on the Mayflower and was inspired by a custom of the Wampanoag native people, who suspend their cradleboards in trees during fine weather. (History of Nursery Rhymes)
And yes I can sing it and so do both of my children. (My daughter sings it to her dog and her baby dolls.) lol

I don't know what the most famous is, but I think of Rock-a-bye baby on a treetop, when the wind blows the cradle will rock. Down will come baby, cradle and all (I forget the rest).
