Hap Palmer - Sleep On lyrics

The flowers all sleep soundly
Beneath the moon's bright ray
They nod their heads together
And dream the night away
The rustling trees wave to and fro
And murmur soft and low
Sleep on sleep on sleep on, my little one
The birds sleep in the branches
The horse lies in the hay
The dolphins say goodnight
Floating peacefully in the bay
The bear is snuggled in it's den
The pig sleeps in the pen
Sleep on sleep on sleep on, my little one
The hens sleep in their house
Roosting quietly in a row
The mice out in the field
Burrow down in the earth below
The monkeys sleep up in a tree
The fish down in the sea
Sleep on sleep on sleep on, my little one
The baby kangaroo
Snoozes safe in it's mother's pouch
The dog is dozing off
Curled up by the parlor couch
The weary turtle slides inside
It's cozy shell to hide
Sleep on sleep on sleep on, my little one
The camels slumber under
A star filled desert sky
The cat lies on the rug
While her kittens sleep nearby
The drowsy cows sleep peacefully
Underneath the tree
Sleep on sleep on sleep on, my little one
