 Sometimes I have trouble falling asleep
But it's not so bad (Ernie, I'm trying to sleep)
I don't worry and I don't weep (Ohh)
In fact I'm glad
Because I get up off my pillow and I flip on the light (Ernie)
I get down and get hip in the still of the night (Turn the light off, Ernie)
I stretch and I yawn and then I breathe real deep (Ohhh)
And dance myself to sleep (Don't dance, please don't dance)
I hoof around my beddy just a-tapping my toes (You're dancing)
Before I know what's happened I'm a-ready to doze (uh)
Got some partners I can count on called the boogie woogie sheep (What?)
And dance myself to sleep
I gently rock-a-bye myself across the floor (What are the sheep doing?)
I turn and I toss and then I start to snore (Ernie...)
My trusty little bugle helps me spread the news (Oh, not the bugle)
That I'm tapping to taps and I'm-a ready to snooze
(Ohhh, your playing the bugle)
(What are the sheep doing? Ernie, the sheep?)
(They're tap dancing)
(Ernie please take the sheep out and let me sleep!!)
(ohhh)
(Where did the sheep get tap shoes??)
(Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away)
(Ernie will you please tell the sheep to put my bed down?)
(Stop get away get away get away get away)
(OK, thank you)
(Wait a minute wait wait don't take me out)
Well, I'm getting kind of drowsy so the moment has come (You're drowsy?!?)
To grab my rubber ducky wihle the sheep take my chum (Take your chum??)
Time to shuffle off to dreamland, got a date to keep (Where you taking me?)
We'll dance ourselves to sleep, ohh yeah (Wait whats going on?)
We'll dance ourselves to sleep, we're in our 'jammies (What are thay doing)
We'll dance ourselves to sleep, (Get away) and thank you lambies
(They're taking me outside!)
We'll dance ourselves to sleep....
(Ernie...)
