The words to the Prarire Lullabye are so similar to the Little Cowboy I know, that I thought I would just finish it for anyone to enjoy...second verse
Little cowboy, you'd better hit the sandman's trail or you'll be late for roundup time you know If you want to be a cowboy you better rest awhile Little cowboy baby of the ole corral...
There is a lead in also that goes... Little fella you're so tired you can hardly lift your head but you want to hear a story before you go to bed So if you're very quiet and listen patiently I'll sing you a song that my mother sang to me...Little cowboy........
