Listen while I sing you to sleep With a rock 'n' roll lullaby Close your eyes and don't you peep This is a rock 'n' roll lullaby Sandman's gonna get you Snuggle down your sleepy head It's gettin' late the Sandman said Your dreams are waiting It's daybreak in the land of nod So get to sleep you little sod Your dreams are waiting And if you get a nightmare Would you go and shake your Ma Cause your Daddy's been a workin' all day And if you go and get a gla** of water by yourself You can show us that you're older than you are
Show us that you're older The Sandman's gonna get you Well you're too young to understand You're living in a wonderland Your dreams are waitin' If only we could be there too And dream a dream along with you Your dreams are waitin' Careful that you don't get out the wrong side of the cot Are you gonna be an angel or a devil You're too small to reason what is right and what is wrong Childhood dreams are gone too fast There's no way we can make them last We'll always love you anyway Any way you are Any way you are
