Besides, watching their "Golden Slumbers"*** makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

*** 113 Pictures in 2013 - "9. Represent a Beatles song in your image"

I can't say I'm much of a Beatles fanatic, and while I've certainly heard many of their songs over the years, there are few the jump out in mind (and even more tellingly, none have yet made their way onto my iPod.)

So I printed out a list (a very LONG list) of their songs and picked Golden Slumbers for obvious reasons, but I didn't realize that I was quite familiar with the tune, just didn't know the title, until I popped over to iTunes to have a listen.

According to Wikipedia, the song is, "is based on the poem 'Cradle Song', a lullaby by the dramatist Thomas Dekker. The poem appears in Dekker's 1603 comedy Patient Grissel."

Golden Slumbers by the Beatles

Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

More Sleepy Dogs
