Baby's boat's a silver moon sailing in the sky
Sailing o'er a sea of sleep while the stars float by
sail, baby, sail out upon that sea
Only don't forget to sail back again to me

Baby's fishing for a dream fishing near and far
her line a silver moonbeam is. her bait a silver star
Sail, baby, sail out upon that sea
Only don't forget to sail back again to me

Ask the children's librarian!
