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 me 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 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.
Mr 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
