Looking for the title and artist of this children song:

"wake up sleepy head
get up get out of bed
see how the sun is shining.
stand up and move your toes,
tell them it's time to go,
we have a lot to do today."

Thanks :)

My mom used to sing this to me in the morning.
Fond memories.

Okay I had it wrong, my mom sang a different song.
This is the one she used to sang, which I guess is different.
Yours may have been some variation of the chorus.


Written by Harry Woods
Part of "The Jolson Story", and recorded by Al Jolson
Has also been recorded by Mandy Patinkin


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the red, red robin comes bob, bob bobbin' along, along,
There'll be no more sobbing when he starts throbbing
His own sweet song.


Wake up, wake up, you sleepy head,
Get up, get up, get out of bed,
Cheer up, cheer up the sun is red,
Live, love, laugh and be happy.


What if I've been blue,
Now I'm walking through fields of flowers,
Rain may glisten, but I still listen for hours and hours.
I'm just a kid again, doing what I did again, singing a song,
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob bobbin' along.

Wake up, you sleepyhead!

Wake up, you sleepyhead!
Get up! Get out of bed!
See how the sun is shining!
Stand up and move your toes
Tell them it’s time to go
You’ve got a lot to do today.

First you’ll fluff up your pillow
And put it on your bed
Then you’ll grab a green rhinoceros
And stand it on your head…
Then you’ll, grab a green rhinoceros?
And stand it on your head?
That doesn’t make any sense!
Are you dreaming?
You ARE dreaming!
Don’t go back to sleep!
Wake up! Wake up!

Wake up, you sleepyhead!
Get up! Get out of bed!
See how the sun is shining!
Stand up and move your toes
Tell them it’s time to go
You’ve got a lot to do today.

You’ll say, “Momma, good morning!
I love you, yes, I do!”
Then you’ll take a watermelon
And you’ll stuff it in your shoe…
Then you’ll—take a watermelon?
And stuff it in your shoe?
Where’d you get that idea?
You’re dreaming again!
You’ve gone back to sleep!
Don’t go to sleep,
You’ve got a lot to do today!
Wake up!

Wake up, you sleepyhead!
Get up! Get out of bed!
See how the sun is shining!
Stand up and move your toes
Tell them it’s time to go
You’ve got a lot to do today.

Oh, you’ll go to the kitchen
And get a bite to eat
Then you’ll jump into an airplane
And fly up and down the street.
Then you’ll—jump into an airplane?
And fly up and down the street?
I don’t believe this!
You’ve gone back to sleep again!
You’ve got to quit dreaming!
You’ve got so much to do!
Wake up!

Wake up, you sleepyhead!
Get up! Get out of bed!
See how the sun is shining!
Stand up and move your toes,
Tell them it’s time to go
You’ve got a lot to do today.

(Sigh)
Boy, I thought you’d never wake up!
Now, let’s see, what’s first on your list?
You’ve got to fluff up your pillow and put it on your bed,
Then you got to go downstairs and get some breakfast.
Don’t forget to tell your mom you love her and good morning,
Then run outside and have a wonderful day, OK?
You’ve got a lot to do today
You’ve got a lot to do today

Boy, all this singing’s made me…(yawn) sleepy!

(Alarm rings)…Oh, no!
