Shadows slowly creeping
down the prairie trail
Everything is sleeping
ah but the nightingale
Moon will soon be climbing
in the purple sky
Night winds all a-humming
This tender lullaby
Cares of the day have fled
My little sleepyhead
Stars are in the sky
Time that the prayers were said
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down
The trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down
The trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Shadows slowly creeping
down the prairie trail
Everything is sleeping
ah but the nightingale
Moon will soon be climbing
in the purple sky
Night winds all a-humming
This tender lullaby
Cares of the day have fled
My little sleepyhead
Stars are in the sky
Time that the prayers were said
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down
The trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down
The trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
