( evenin' breeze is sighin', moon is in the sky
Time for daddy's little man to hear his lullaby . . . )
Little 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 day . .
Johnny 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 day . .

You'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 tonight . .

Time 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 day . .
Instrumental bridge
Time you should be dreaming
Little man you've had a busy day . .
( rest your weary little head . . . )
