Lyrics
Sleepy Time Rag By Marc S. Feingold Go to sleep you weary baby Don’t wake up till Mommy brings you round Dream about your waking hours Until it’s time again to put you down Don’t you love your creature comforts? Baby bottle, blanket, bib and thumb Spitting up upon your Daddy’s shoulder Powdering your tiny baby bum Dip dip dip dip dippety doo, etc. When I change your little diaper And apply that baby wiper to your woo Like Ozzie Nelson I’ve discovered Heaven here It’s clear why Mom and Daddy do love you Daddy doesn’t understand why you’re not tired Mommy’s busy walking in her sleep On the sofa watching late night movie shows While the kitty cat counts flocks of mice and sheep So go to sleep you weary baby I’ve tried bedtime stories, hugs and nursery rhymes Dr. Seuss, Bullwinkle Moose and Mother goose Bring baby yawns when it is sleepy time (so go to sleep now) Bring baby yawns when it is sleepy time (we know you’re sleepy) Bring baby yawns when it is sleepy time….
