Song : Tell Me A Story
 
												
														   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:

H
