Dear little sleepyhead : lullaby waltz-song / words and music by Frederick Seymour

VERSE 01: Mm, Mm/Tired little tot came in from play

after he’s romped the live long day./Tried to eat but dead for sleep

he felt just as cross as a grizzly bear./Trying to please her little boy, mother soon finds a baby toy,/Contented a while, but soon in a pile

he fell fast asleep in the old arm chair.VERSE 02: Mm, Mm/Soon little boy was tucked in bed

while mother sat close by and read./He begged her tell of angels fair, and if they were keeping his papa there./Soon mother’s eyes are filled with tears

when out of bed by her side, she hears him plead with a sigh, “I wish you wouldn’t cry.”/He knelt down to pray but sleep stole his pray’r.CHORUS: Sleepy head./Sleepy head./Come, my dear, it’s time for bed./Early to bed and early to rise, makes men healthy, wealthy and wise./Sleepy head./Sleepy head./You’re so tired, you’re nearly dead. Kiss me goodnight

hope you sleep tight./Dear little Sleepy head.
