People wake, people sleep,
Out breaks the sun, the babies weep,
The dawn awakens, away goes the moon,
Breakfast will be ready soon,
People wake, people sleep.

People wake, people sleep,
Some roll over in a big, blanket heap,
To school, all the children head,
Mom tells them to make their bed,
Down the road, cars began to race,
As people put on their working face,
People wake, people sleep.

People wake, people sleep,
The day goes by in a giant leap,
The dining room is set for dinner,
We pray to God to not be a sinner,
Television, homework, and family fun,
The day is almost done,
People wake, people sleep.

People wake, people sleep,
Through the sky, darkness will creep,
Bedtime stories and sweet dreams to all,
Tired eyes to sleep will fall,
People wake, people sleep.
