Little sleepy boy

Do you know what time it is?

Well the hour of your bedtime's

Long been past



And though I know you're fighting it

I can tell when you rub your eyes

You're fading fast

Fading fast



Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet

Roll across the skies

And leave a spray of diamonds

In its wake

I long to see St. Judy's Comet

Sparkle in your eyes

When you awake



Little boy

Won't you lay your body down

Little boy

Won't you close your weary eyes

Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies



Well I sang it once

Then I sang it twice

I'm going to sing it three times more

I'm going to stay 'til your resistance

Is overcome

'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep

Well it makes your famous daddy

Look so dumb



Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet

Roll across the skies

And leave a spray of diamonds

In its wake

I long to see St. Judy's Comet

Sparkle in your eyes

When you awake



Little boy, little boy

Won't you lay your body down

Little boy, little boy

Won't you close your weary eyes

Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies



Oo little sleepy boy

Do you know what time it is

Well the hour of your bedtime's

Long been past

Though I know you're fighting it

I can tell when you rub your eyes

That you're fading fast.
