Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep/ My Favorite Things
When I'm worried and I can't sleep
I count my blessings instead of sheep
And I fall asleep counting my blessings
When my bankroll is getting small
I think of when I had none at all
And I fall asleep counting my blessings
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I think about a nursery and I picture curly heads
And one by one I count them as they slumber in their beds
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
I simply remember my favorite things
Like silver-white winters that melt into springs
And then I don't feel so bad
Cause I fall asleep
Counting my blessings
