( evenin' breeze is sighin', moon is in the sky,

Time for daddy's little man to hear his lullaby . . . )

Little man you're cryin', i know why you're blue,

Someone took your kiddy-car away,

Better go to sleep now,

Little man you've had a busy day . . .

Johnny won your marbles, tell you what we'll do,

Dad will get you new ones right away,

Better go to sleep now,

Little man you've had a busy day . . .



You've been playin' soldier, the battle has been won,

The enemy is out of sight,

Come along there soldier, put away your gun,

The war is over for tonight . . .



Time you stop your schemin', time your day was through,

Can't you hear the bugle softly say?

Time you should be dreamin',

Little man you've had a busy day . . .

< instrumental bridge >

Time you should be dreaming,

Little man you've had a busy day . . .

( rest your weary little head . . . )
