I used to sing improvised lullabies to my boy. This was one of them. Now I sing it for my beautiful little girl.

Time for Sleepy-Do
Time for sleepy you
to close your eyes
and realize that we love you so.

Time for Sleepy-Do
Time for sleepy you
to go to bed
so rest your head on me.

Mama loves you
Papa loves you
You are our dear little girl
(*You are our dear little boy)

Mama loves you
Papa loves you
You set our hearts atwirl.
(You fill our hearts with joy)

*version for boy

Chords: D, D7, G, A, A7
