Emmylou Harris - Mr. Sandman

Mister Sandman / Emmylou Harris

Mister Sandman
bring me a dream
make him the cutest
that I’ve ever seen
give him two lips
like roses in clover
then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sandman
I’m so alone
don’t have nobody
to call my own
please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman bring me a dream


Mister Sandman
bring me a dream
make him the cutest
that I’ve ever seen
give him the word
that I’m not a rover
then tell him that his lonely nights are over
Sandman
I’m so alone
don’t have nobody
to call my own
please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman bring me a dream


Mister Sandman
bring us a dream
give him a pair of eyes with a come hither gleam
give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
and lots of wavy hair like Liberace
Mister Sandman
someone to hold
would be so peachy
before we’re too old
so please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman bring us
please please please
Mister Sandman bring us a dream
