Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' Your mama will be callin', that old rooster will crow Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' You should have been sleepin' a long time ago There are certain things in life That do not go the way we plan them There are mysteries to Love You're too young to understand them These are not tears Just smoke in my eyes Smoke from the bridges I'm burning tonight Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' Your mama will be callin', that old rooster will crow Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' You should have been sleepin' a long time ago Guess it's time to say goodnight I've sung you every song I know Let me stand and watch you dream One more time before I go Tomorrow you'll wake And you'll wonder why There's so many miles Between you and I Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' Your mama will be callin', that old rooster will crow Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' You should have been sleepin' a long time ago Close your eyes, you've got a long day comin' You should have been sleepin' a long time ago
