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.
