I think it is Polish and is another word for a scarf.

Headscarf. It comes from the Russian word for old woman, since that's who mainly wear them.
Reminds me though, of toboggan, which we used to refer to as a type of sled with the runners turned up in a curve in front when I was a kid, and not to a stocking cap or stocking hat; and of a sleigh, which we used to call a horse-drawn conveyance with runners for winter use; but did not use it to refer to a kid's sled!

(1980)
"Babooshka" is a song by British singer Kate Bush, taken from her album Never for Ever. Released as a single on June 23, 1980 it spent 10 weeks in the UK chart, peaking at number five. The song chronicles a wife's desire to test her husband's loyalty. To do so, she takes on the nom de plume of Babooshka and writes to her husband in the guise of a young, seductive woman — something which she fears is the opposite of how her husband currently sees her (Hence the barbed lines: "Just like his wife before she freezed on him Just like his wife when she was beautiful…").
The trap is set when, in her bitterness and paranoia, 'Babooshka' arranges to meet with her husband, thereby snaring him in his own treachery — without, it seems, the slightest pangs of conscience regarding her own involvement in the entrapment. From Bush's mime in the video, one might assume that, if her husband appears at the rendez-vous point, she will be waiting to kill him for his ironic infidelity.
The mood of the song is one of barely controlled feminine rage, blooming into screams at the chorus, and melded with the title character's own regrets and self-loathing. The music video depicts Bush beside a double bass (a.k.a contrabass), wearing a black bodysuit and a veil in her role as the embittered wife, alluding to a definition of the word Babooshka-a headscarf. This changes into an extravagant, mythlike and rather sparse 'Russian' costume as her alter-ego, Babooshka. (The wide-eyed mania of that character might lead one to make comparisons with the Greek Erinyes or any range of mythic warrior women, such as the emasculating Amazons or the Valkyries of Norse myth).This guise also alludes to a definition of the word Babooshka-a headscarf.
The track features John Giblin on bass and marks the significance of fretless bass sounds as instrumental "male" partners through Kate's music in the early eighties.
The B-side contains her song "Ran-Tan Waltz".
Babushka is actually a Russian word for a woman, and sometimes indicates in English a garment worn over womens hair, much like a bandana.
I hope this helps sweetie,

OH MY GOD I LOVE THAT SONG!!! Anyway, it means grandmother or in some Russian slang "old woman/hag". If you listen to the lyrics, it kinda explains it all. Have you seen the video for "Babooshka"?.How she goes from old maid to sexy beast? Also, it can be a scarf. Like in the video, when she lifts her veil & shouts "I, Babooshka". Either meaning would fit in with the lyrics.

Babushka means Poor slob believe in Polish. And it is a woman's headpiece or scarf.
