Wake Up Little Sleepy Head
Wake up little “Sleepy head”
It’s time to rise and shine –
Get up out of that old bed
There are mountains yet to climb.
Put on your shoes and sweater
Take a walk amidst the trees –
Come listen to the sound of loons
Wafting in the breeze.
Wake up now little “Sleepy head”
The hour is drawing near –
For you to dance and find romance
And the path that you must steer.
In this carousel ride on which you fly
Throughout this life you’re living –
Come find yourself and all you’re worth
And learn the gift of giving.
Wear that pretty purple dress
That matches your dark eyes –
And don’t forget to stop and rest
When rainbows fill the sky.
Wake up now little “Sleepy head”
The flower garden’s near –
Waiting for you to plant some seeds
That will sprout anew next year.
While you look for love from high above
And in everyone you meet –
Today it’s time for you to find
Diamonds at your feet.
Wake up now little “Sleepy head”
It’s time to move along –
No more waiting, hesitating
To find where you belong.
