You're a tired buckeroo little pal
You've been ridin' hard all day little pal
Soon the sandman will be callin'
As the twilight shadows fall
And you'll go ridin' down the milky way

Chorus:
So lay your curly head upon your pillow
While your faithful dog stands watching over you
Close your tired little eyes
While I croon a lullaby
And you'll ride the trail to dreamland, buckeroo

Mr. Moon is shining high up above
And your eyes they soon will close my little love
So sweet dreams until the dawn
When the sandman will be gone
And a new day then will ghreet you buckeroo

Chorus:
So lay your curly head upon your pillow
While your faithful dog stands watching over you
Close your tired little eyes
While I croon a lullaby
And you'll ride the trail to dreamland, buckeroo...
