Lyrics:



Ooo, little sleepy boy, do you know what time it is?

The hour of your bedtime's long been past.

And though I know you're fightin' it, 

I can tell when you rub your eyes,

You're fadin' fast - fadin' fast.



Won't you ever come see St. Judy's Comet roll across the skies,

And leave a spray of diamonds in it's wake?

I long to see St. Judy's Comet sparkle in your eyes when you awake,

Oh, when you wake awake.



Little boy, little boy,

Won't you lay your body down?

Little boy, little boy,

Won't you close your weary eyes?

Ain't nothin' flashin' but the fire-flies.



Well I sang it once, sang it twice, I'm gonna sing it three times more.

I'm gonna stay 'til your resistance is overcome.

'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep, 

You'll make your famous daddy look so dumb, look so dumb.



Won't you ever come see St. Judy's Comet roll across the skies,

And leave a spray of diamonds in it's wake?

I long to see St. Judy's Comet sparkle in your eyes when you awake,

Oh, when you wake awake.



Little boy,

Won't you lay your body down?

Little boy, little boy,

Won't you close your weary eyes?

Ain't nothin' flashin' but the fire-flies.



Ooo, little sleepy boy do you know what time it is?
