Little Man, You’ve Had A Busy Day - Paul Robeson

Evenin' breezes sighin', moon is in the sky

Little man, it’s time for bed

Daddy’s little hero is tired and wants to cry

Now come along and rest your weary head

Little man, you’re cryin', I know why you’re blue

Someone took your kiddy-car away

You 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 to 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

Little man, you’re cryin', I know why you’re blue

Someone took your kiddy-car away

Well, you better go to sleep now

Little man, you’ve had a busy day

Johnny won your marbles, I know, I 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 to 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
