You are a sailboat Upon the ocean You are a sailboat And I will steer you Across the sea to dreamland To where there's white sand… Across the sea in dreamland To where a soft breeze Blows in a deep blue sky And moves the palm trees… And you will lie there And hear the birds sing And they will bring you presents Of a hundred gold rings And if you count them slowly They'll change to wishes So sleep my little sailboat With stores of milk and honey And sixpences for money And safe beneath a great moon I'll sing this rockabye tune, So shut your pretty eyes And I'll steer you to the white sand For we're on our way to dreamland Until the morning…
