Lyrics (as I remember) to Sleepy Town Express:
(Who knows any more?)
Come on, all you kiddies, put your playthings down.
Take a trip with me to the jubilee down in Sleepy Town.
Put on all your nighties, close your eyes and rest,
'Cause we're going away for a holiday
On the Sleepy Town Express.
Oh! We're going to meet Jack, and we're going to meet Jill.
They live in a shack on Pumpkin Pie Hill.
It' an all-night trip on a pillow slip on the Sleepy Town Express.
We'll paddle and splash in the soda pop pools
On Plum Pudding Beach where there ain't no schools!
So, go to bed, don't wait, or you'll be too late
For the Sleepy Town Express.
All the little tots down in Sleepy Town
Are waiting to meet the trains,
With their licorice shoes and their chocolate hats,
And their peppermint candy canes!
All aboard! All aboard! For the Sleepy Town Express!
Can't you hear the wheels a'clickin' on those silver plated rails?
While the kitty cats meow Good-Bye and wave their pretty tails?
All the maidens on the Milky Way are shining up the moon,
Because they know the Sleepy Town Express is comin' very soon.
We will stop and pay a visit to the Woman in the Shoe,
And we'll call on Cinerella, and Old Mother Hubbard, too!
Can't you hear the wind a-tooty tootin' tootin' down the flue?
And the Sandman will be coming with his Choo-Kachoo-Kachoo!All aboard! All aboard! For the Sleepy Town Express!
We'll paddle and splash in the soda pop pools,
On plum pudding beach where there ain't no schools!
And the Sandman, dear, is the Engineer
On The Sleepy Town Expressssssssssssssss
