Evenin' breeze is sighin', moon is in the sky
Time for daddy's little man to hear his lullabyLittle man you're cryin', I know why you're blue
Someone took your kiddy-car away
Better go to sleep now
Little man you've had a busy dayJohnny won your marbles, tell you what we'll do
Dad will get you new ones right away
Better go to sleep now
Little man you've had a busy dayYou've been playin' soldier, the battle has been won
The enemy is out of sight
Come along there soldier, put away your gun
The war is over for tonightTime you stop your schemin', time your day was through
Can't you hear the bugle softly say?
Time you should be dreamin',
Little man you've had a busy dayTime you should be dreaming
Little man you've had a busy day
Rest your weary little head
