Willie Roy (The Crippled Boy)

His age was seven years today
 He don't know what it is to play
 Each night before he goes to bed
 This little prayer he always says
 Now I lay me down to rest
 Dear God please give me happiness
 I'm praying so my dreams come true
 So I can walk and play with you

 His name they call him Willy Roy
 He's just a little crippled boy
 But now the tears roll down his cheeks
 I wipe them off so he can sleep
 Now I lay me down to rest
 Dear God please give me happiness
 I'm praying so my dreams come true
 So I can walk and play with you
 ♪
 Someday I hope you can go out
 And play with me and walk about
 I won't scold if you should cry
 So soon, be good, my son good night
 Now I lay me down to rest
 Dear God please give me happiness
 I'm praying so my dreams come true
 So I can walk and play with you
