T Bone Burnett - Prairie Lullaby lyrics

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 The 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 The sandman's here To guide you down the trail of dreams Tumble in bed my tired My little sleepyhead To a prairie lullaby
