Prarie Lullaby - Jimmie Rodgers

Shadows slowly creeping

Down the prairie trail

Everything is sleeping

Ah, but the nightingale

Moon will soon be climbing

In the purple sky

Night winds all a-humming

This tender lullaby

Cares of the day have fled

My little sleepyhead

The stars are in the sky

Time that the prayers were said

My little sleepyhead

To a prairie lullaby

Saddle up your pony

The sandman’s here

To guide you down the trail of dreams

Tumble in bed my tired

My little sleepyhead

To a prairie lullaby

Cares of the day have fled

My little sleepyhead

The stars are in the sky

Time that the prayers were said

My little sleepyhead

To a prairie lullaby

Saddle up your pony

The sandman’s here

To guide you down the trail of dreams

Tumble in bed my tired

My little sleepyhead

To a prairie lullaby
