Info
The Sandman is a character in folk stories from parts of Europe. It is said he sprinkles sand in children’s eyes to help them sleep, and in the morning, the grit in their eyes is leftover sand from the Sandman.
Lyrics
(German folk tune)
The Sandman comes, the Sandman comes,
He has such pretty snow-white sand,
And well he’s known throughout the land,
The Sandman comes.
