Little Man, You've Had A Busy Day

Little Man, You've Had a Busy Day - Paul Robeson/Howdy Doody

Evenin' breezes sighin' moon is in the sky

Little man it's time for bed

Daddy's little hero is tired and wants to cry

Now come along and rest your weary head

Little man you're cryin'

I know why you're blue

Someone took your kiddy-car away

You better go to sleep now

Little man you've had a busy day

Johnny won your marbles

Tell you what we'll do

Dad will get you new ones right away

Better go to sleep now

Little man you've had a busy day

You've been playin' soldier

The battle has been won

The enemy is out of sight

Come along there soldier

Put away your gun

The war is over for tonight

Time to stop your schemin'

Time your day was through

Can't you hear the bugle softly say

Time you should be dreamin'

Little man you've had a busy day

Little man you're cryin' I know why you're blue

Someone took your kiddy-car away

Well you better go to sleep now

Little man you've had a busy day

Johnny won your marbles

I know I tell you what we'll do

Dad will get you new ones right away

Better go to sleep now

Little man you've had a busy day

You've been playin' soldier

The battle has been won

The enemy is out of sight

Come along there soldier put away your gun

The war is over for tonight

Time to stop your schemin'

Time your day was through

Can't you hear the bugle softly say

Time you should be dreamin'

Little man you've had a busy day
