Go to sleep, darling one,
Dreams are on their way
Sandman soon will say goodnight
And end another day
Rosy clouds float on air
The sun is going down
Now the sandman's soft footsteps
Tiptoe through the town
With a bag on his back
And a shake of his hand
He sprinkles on children
His grains of white sand
Blue eyes, green eyes,
Black eyes and brown
They gently close
When he goes through the town
From a beach on the shore
In a faraway land
He rises at dawn to shovel his sand
Silver buckets he fills
And then stows them away
Shining treasure he'll keep
'Til the end of the day
Blue eyes, green eyes,
Black eyes and brown
They gently close
When he goes through the town
When the night comes if you hear
The sandman's sweet song
Do not dally and keep him
A-waiting too long
Close your eyes on your pillow
Rest your little head
And the sandman will come
While you sleep in your bed
Blue eyes, green eyes,
Black eyes and brown
They gently close
When he goes through the town
Go to sleep, darling one
Dreams are on their way
Sandman soon will say goodnight
And end another day
