Now I Lay Me
Now I lay me down to sleep
Mommies pillow under feet
Wrapped up in her patchwork quilt
Shivering to lay on guilt
Mommy comes to climb into bed
She finds me in her place instead,
She shifts my leaded body over
Climbs on in, pulls up the cover
There I snuggle warm and safe
Close my eyes to end the day.
Now I lay me in a heap
In mommies arms I'll safely sleep
