Sleepyhead - Nursery Rhyme

A Lullaby


Go to bed, sleepyhead
Snuggle with sleepy ted
And sleep sleepyhead
In your safe warm bed

Close your eyes, don’t peek
Count the bounding sheep
Take a graceful leap
Into restful sleep

And then when you awake
To a brand new day
We will take your hand
And we’ll guide your way

Take a graceful leap
Into restful sleep
And sleep sleepyhead
In your warm cozy bed

Glad you liked it. I’ve been singing it to an assortment of ‘tunes’ all day... could have done an mp3 but I don’t want to crack everyone’s windows. I’ve never had an ‘aww’ before so thanks Jan. Terry
