Evenin' breezes sighin', moon is in the sky Little man, it's time for bed Daddy's little hero is tired and wants to cry Now come along and rest your weary head
Little man, you're cryin', I know why you're blue Someone took your kiddy-car away You better go to sleep now Little man, you've had a busy day
Johnny won your marbles, tell you what we'll do Dad will get you new ones right away Better go to sleep now Little man, you've had a busy day
You've been playin' soldier, the battle has been won The enemy is out of sight Come along there soldier, put away your gun The war is over for tonight
Time to stop your schemin', time your day was through Can't you hear the bugle softly say Time you should be dreamin' Little man, you've had a busy day
Little man, you're cryin', I know why you're blue Someone took your kiddy-car away Well, you better go to sleep now Little man, you've had a busy day
Johnny won your marbles, I know, I tell you what we'll do Dad will get you new ones right away Better go to sleep now Little man, you've had a busy day
You've been playin' soldier, the battle has been won The enemy is out of sight Come along there soldier, put away your gun The war is over for tonight
Time to stop your schemin', time your day was through Can't you hear the bugle softly say Time you should be dreamin' Little man, you've had a busy day
