Shaney boy
Kevin Johnson
Little boy you seem to wake up earlier every morning Come running from your bed to greet the day With a pair of sleepy eyes that could have slept a little longer And a thousand urgent things you have to say. And the morning passes quickly in the springtime and the springtime brings such fascinating games Puppy dogs and chocolate frogs and fishing lines and pretending that you didn't hear your mommy call your name. Shaney Boy your lunch is growing cold here on the table and you have to eat these things to make you grow and I know you're only scared that you'll be missing out on something but even busy people have to eat you know. And the afternoon goes quickly when there's good times and there's good times in the garden every day Little friendly butterflies that flutter by and a little friend to help you chase those butterflies away. Shaney Boy those eyes of yours are looking kind of drowsy and I know you never want the day to end but just think if you close your eyes and lie back on your pillow Wont be long before the mornings here again. And the Morning passes quickly in our lifetime and before you even notice that its gone. So little boy I'm noticing the nice times now Cos I know that little boys don't stay little boys for long
