| 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:
|
