Lyrics

Old toy trains,

lit tle toy tracks,

lit tle toy drums

com in’ from a (C)sack, car ried by a (F)man dressed in (F7)white and (Bb)red.

Lit tle boy, don’t you think it’s (C7)time you were in (F)bed?

Close your (C7)eyes,

lis ten to the (Bb)skies.

All is (Dm)calm,

all is (G7)well.

Soon you’ll hear Kris (C)Krin gle and the (Dm7)jin gle (C7)bell bring in’ old toy trains,

lit tle toy tracks,

lit tle toy drums

com in’ from a (C)sack,

car ried by a (F)man

dressed in (F7)white and (Bb)red.

Lit tle boy, don’t you think it’s (C7)time you were in (F)bed?

So close your (C7)eyes,

lis ten to the (Bb)skies.

All is (Dm)calm,

all is (G7)well.

Soon you’ll hear Kris (C)Krin gle and the (Dm7)jin gle (C7)bell bring in’ old toy trains,

lit tle toy tracks,

lit tle toy drums

com in’ from a (C)sack,

car ried by a (F)man

dressed in (F7)white and (Bb)red.

Lit tle boy, don’t you think it’s (C7)time you were in (F)bed?

So close your (F)bed?

Lit tle boy, don’t you think it’s (C7)time you were in (F)bed?
