Lyrics The Doobie Brothers

The Doobie Brothers

Wynken, Blynken and Nod

Wynken and Blynken and Nod one night

Sailed off in a wooden shoe

Sailed in a river of

Crystal light into a sea of dew

Now where are you going

And what do you (A)wish

The old moon asked of the three

Well, we're going out fishing

For herring fish that live in the

Beautiful sea

Nets of Silver and

Gold have we said

Wynken and Blynken and Nod

The old moon laughed andsang

A song

As they rocked in their wooden

Shoe

And the wind that sped them all

Night long ruffled the waves of dew

Well the little stars were the

Herring fish that lived

In the beautiful sea

Now cast your nets wherever

You wish never afeared are we

So sang the stars to the

Fisherman three:

Wynken and Blynken and Nod

All night long their nets they

Threw to the stars and

The twinkling foam

Then down from the skies came

The wooden shoe bringing

The fisherman home

Twas all so pretty a sight

It seemed as if it could not be

And some folks thought it was

A dream they dreamed

Of sailingthe beautiful sea

But I shall name you the

Fisherman three:

Wynken, Blynken and Nod

Now Wynken and Blynken are

Two little eyes and Nod is a

Little head

And the wooden shoe that

Sailed the sky is a wee one's

Trundle bed

So close your eyes while

Mother sings of the beautiful

Sights that be

And you will see wonderful

Things as you rock on the misty sea

Where the old moon rocks

The fisherman three

Wynken and Blynken and Nod
