HIAWATHA'S LULLABY
Hiawatha's lullaby, there's the moon and I.
Like the waters, I am blue underneath the blue melancholy sky.
Hiawatha's lullaby, wake up all the lazy streams,
Wake up ev'ry flower bed, ev'ry sleepy head in your land of dreams.
The mellowy moonlight caressing the breeze,
Longfellowy moonlight, a book of memories.
Hiawatha's lullaby, there's the moon and here am I.
Like the waters, I am blue underneath the blue melancholy sky.
Hiawatha's lullaby, there's the moon and I.
Like the waters, I am blue underneath the blue melancholy sky.
Hiawatha's lullaby, wake up all the lazy streams,
Wake up ev'ry flower bed, ev'ry sleepy head in your land of dreams.
The mellowy moonlight caressing the breeze,
Longfellowy moonlight, a book of memories.
Hiawatha's lullaby, there's the moon and here am I.
Like the waters, I am blue underneath the blue melancholy sky.
