Sometimes I have trouble falling asleep but it's not so bad

I don't worry and I don't weep. In fact I'm glad.

Because I get up off my pillow and I flip on the light.

I get down and get hip in the still of the night I stretch and I yawn and then I breathe real deep

And dance myself to sleep.

I hoof around my beddie just a-tappin' my toes

Before I know what's happened I'm a-ready to doze

Got some partners I can count the boogie-woogie sheep

I dance myself to sleep.
