Sleep Song
Don Reid / Henry Tobias / Ken Baker
I go to sleep to dream of you
And just as I'm about to kiss you, then...
I gotta get up, I gotta get up, I gotta get up, it's morning!
Go back to sleep to dream again,
And as I take you in my arms that's when...
I gotta get up, I gotta get up, I gotta get up again!
Oh, the bugler man is a silly man
Got all day to practice his horn
But he waits instead
Till we're all in bed
Then he starts to make with his corn
Why go to sleep,
For if I sleep
I'll only start to dream of you and then...
I gotta get up, I gotta get up, I gotta get up again!
(repeat once)
