Lyrics
Sleepy Head
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sleepy head isn't it time that you were in your bed?
The sandman will be coming soon, with a dream or two
Perhaps tomorrow they will all come true
Ooh sleepy head whispering all the things that we left unsaid
And so it's time to make your weary way into a brand new day, tomorrow
The little pigs were certain that the wolf was here to stay
But in your dreams you'll chase that wolf away
Hey Sleepy head the princess has been saved and the dragon's dead
Goodnight, and may God keep you in his sight
Safe until the early light, sleepy head, sleepy head, sleepy head.....
