The Count's Lullaby

Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street

Go to sleep, my little bat,

Oh, say good night to your black cat.

Do not put on your nightgown,

You'll be sleeping upside down.



Go to sleep my little goblin,

While your cradle is a wobblin',

I will sit and count your snoring

Even though you think it's boring.



Count the footsteps up the stairs,

Count the creaking of the chairs,

Count the clouds that fill the sky,

Keep on counting, don't ask why.



Go to sleep, my spider dear,

While you're dreaming I'll be near.

There's a full moon in the sky

Shining on my lullaby.
