I. “Stay Awake”
[Verse 1]
Stay awake, don’t rest your head
Don’t lie down upon your bed
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don’t close your eyes
[Verse 2]
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow’s soft and deep
You’re not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don’t nod and dream
Stay awake, don’t nod and dream
II. “Little Wooden Head”
[Instrumental]
III. “Blue Shadows On the Trail”
[Verse 1]
Shades of night are falling
As the wind begins to sigh
And the world is silhouetted
'Gainst the sky
[Verse 2]
Blue shadows on the trail
Blue moon shining through the trees
And a plaintive wail from the distance
Comes a-drifting on the evening breeze
[Chorus]
Move along, blue shadows, move along
Soon the dawn will come
And you’ll be on your way
But until the darkness sheds its veil
There’ll be blue shadows on the trail
[Chorus 2]
Move along, blue shadows, move along
Soon the dawn will come
And you’ll be on your way
But until the darkness sheds its veil
There’ll be blue shadows
Blue, blue shadows
There’ll be blue, blue shadows
[Outro]
On the trail
