Tell Me A Story (with Jimmy Boyd) |
| Junior: |
| Tell me story, tell me story |
| Tell me story, remember what you said |
| You promised me you said you would |
| You got to give in so I’ll be good |
| Tell me a story, then I’ll go to bed |
| Father: |
| Oh, worry, worry, weary ends my day |
| Time to go home without my raise in pay |
| Home by the fire where a man can just relax |
| Sippers there by the chair, not a worry, not a care |
| Along comes Junior swinging his little axe |
| Junior: |
| Tell me a story, tell me a story |
| Tell me a story, remember what you said |
| Tell me about the birds and bees |
| How do you make a chicken sneeze |
| Tell me a story, then I’ll go to bed |
| Father: |
| Came home so late one evening last July |
| Played a little poker the time had passed me by |
| Shoes in my hand and my darlin' wife in bed |
| Up the stairs sayin' a prayer |
| Then a voice comes through the air … |
| Junior: |
| Hi you there, Daddy |
| Remember what you said |
| Tell me a story, tell me a story |
| Tell me a story, remember what you said |
| Tell me how your eye got black |
| Because the doorway hit you back |
| Tell me a story, then I’ll go to bed |
| Father: |
| Once upon a time I remember long ago |
| Junior: |
| Don’t go back in history your memory’s kinda slow |
| Father: |
| Stop your noisy talkin' until I finish with my tale |
| Once upon a … |
| Junior: |
| Upon a what … |
| Father: |
| Upon your back you’ll get a swat |
| Junior: |
| Tell me about the fish you caught |
| That’s was bigger than a whale |
| Junior: |
| Tell me a story, tell me a story |
| Tell me a story, remember what you said |
| You promised me, you said you would |
| You gotta give in so I’ll be good |
| Father: |
| Here |
