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 stars are in the sky
Time that the prayers were said
My little sleepyhead to a prairie lullaby

Saddle up your pony sandman's here
To guide you down the trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired my little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby

Saddle up your pony sandman's here
To guide you down the trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired my little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
