The Children’s
Train
(Lullaby Song)
Have you heard
about the children’s train
That in the dim
twilight
Takes them off to
Sleepyland
And keeps them
there all night?
Oh it is a very
fast express
And goes, I
understand,
To Dreamytown, the
capital
Of dear old
Sleepyland.
(Refrain)
Then it’s
choo-choo-choo the engine puffs—
Ding dong, ding
dong bell.
Whooo-whoo-whoo the
whistle blows
Over hill and dell.
Tickets!.......
Tickets;
Please hold them in
your hand.
A goodnight kiss
will do as well
For fare to
Sleepyland.
Oh, the train
stands in the station as
The twilight’s
falling down,
Boys and girls and
people too,
All board for
Dreamytown.
When the engineer
is ready for
The starting-off
command
The condusctor
calls out “all aboard,”
And we’re off for
Sleepyland.
Then it’s
choo-choo-choo the engine puffs—
Ding dong, ding
dong bell.
Whooo-whoo-whoo the
whistle blows
Over hill and dell.
Tickets!.......
Tickets;
Please hold them in
your hand.
A goodnight kiss
will do as well
For fare to
Sleepyland.
And the
station that we come to first
Is known as
wink-a-boo,
But we never stop
there long—
The train goes
rushing through,
And when we get to
Noddyville
The shadows darker
creep,
And winky eyes and
noddy heads
Are going fast
asleep.
Then it’s
choo-choo-choo the engine puffs—
Ding dong, ding
dong bell.
Whooo-whoo-whoo the
whistle blows
Over hill and dell.
Tickets!.......
Tickets;
Please hold them in
your hand.
A goodnight kiss
will do as well
For fare to
Sleepyland.
Oh, the train is
going faster now
As darkness settles
down,
No more stops until
we reach
Our dear old
dreamytown.
Please do let the
train go slower now,
And in the station
stand
We have all arrived
at Dreamytown,
In dear old
Sleepyland.
Then it’s
choo-choo-choo the engine puffs—
Ding dong, ding
dong bell.
Whooo-whoo-whoo the
whistle blows
Over hill and dell.
Tickets!.......
Tickets!;
Please hold them in
your hand.
A goodnight kiss
will do as well
For fare to
Sleepyland.
