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

But you've 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 didnt 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 youre only scared that youll be missing out on something

but even busy people have to eat you know.

And the afternoon goes quickly when theres good times

and theres 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 dont stay little boys for long

Repeat first part of first verse.

Thats it. 1st tab . Hope its useful to someone.
