"St. Judy's Comet" Lyrics

Oh little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is
Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past
'N though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you're fading fast

Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Roll across the sky
Leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see St. Judy's Comet sparkle in your eyes

When you awake
Little boy won't you lay your head down
Little boy, little boy won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies

Well I sang it once
I sang it twice
I'm gonna sing it three times more
Gonna sing till your resistance is overcome
'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb

Oh little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is
The hour of your bedtime's long been past
Though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you're fading fast
