[Verse 1]
Little one, put your toys away
You had fun playing games all day
Time for bed
Go to sleep my sleepy head
[Verse 2]
Soon you'll find candy dreams and such
On your mind if you eat too much
I won't mind
Go to sleep my sleepy head
[Bridge]
Away to dreamland
That grand man, the sand man who'll lead you
And may an angel be there beside you
There to guide you through the night
[Verse 3]
Time to pray, lay me down to sleep
Now you say, "and my soul to keep"
Time for bed
Go to sleep my sleepy head
[Musical Bridge]
[Verse 3]
Time to pray, lay me down to sleep
Now you say, "and my soul to keep"
Time for bed
Go to sleep my sleepy head
[Outro]
Good night!
