"Welterusten, meneer de president" (Sleep well, Mr. President) is a Dylanesque song from 1966, sung by Boudewijn de Groot. Like most of his other songs, this one was written with songwriter Lennaert Nijgh. The music was composed by Boudewijn de Groot himself. The song is a protest against the war in Vietnam and the president of the US by the time, Lyndon B. Johnson and made De Groot a name as a protest singer.

The song consists of six parts and is drenched in sarcasm.
