[00:00.00]Tell Me A Story - Jo Stafford
[00:01.66]Tell me story tell me story
[00:05.28]Tell me story remember what you said
[00:09.09]You promised me you said you would
[00:10.91]You got to give in so I'll be good
[00:13.00]Tell me a story then I'll go to bed
[00:17.01]Oh worry worry weary ends my day
[00:20.79]Comes the time to go home
[00:22.82]Without my raise in pay
[00:24.86]Home by the fire where a man can just relax
[00:28.53]Sippers there by the chair
[00:30.70]Not a worry not a care
[00:32.65]Along comes Junior swinging his little axe
[00:36.77]Tell me a story tell me a story
[00:40.37]Tell me a story
[00:42.28]Remember what you said
[00:44.26]Tell me about the birds and bees
[00:46.29]How do you make a chicken sneeze
[00:48.50]Tell me a story then I'll go to bed
[00:52.25]Came home so late one evening last July
[00:55.94]Played a little poker
[00:57.86]The time had passed me by
[00:59.76]Shoes in my hand and
[01:02.04]My darlin' wife in bed
[01:03.91]Up the stairs sayin' a prayer
[01:05.90]Then a voice comes through the air
[01:07.82]Hi you there daddy
[01:09.59]Remember what you said
[01:11.59]Tell me a story tell me a story
[01:15.46]Tell me a story remember what you said
[01:19.38]Tell me how your eye got black
[01:21.47]Because the doorway hit you back
[01:23.17]Tell me a story then I'll go to bed
[01:27.22]Once upon a time
[01:29.11]I remember long ago
[01:31.12]Don't go back in history y
[01:33.41]Our memory's kinda slow
[01:34.90]Stop your noisy talking
[01:36.71]Until I finish with my tale
[01:38.92]Once upon upon what
[01:40.70]Upon your back
[01:41.82]You'll get a swat
[01:43.02]Tell me about the fish you caught
[01:44.80]That's was bigger than a whale
[01:46.86]Tell me a story
[01:48.74]Tell me a story
[01:50.68]Tell me a story
[01:52.55]Remember what you said
[01:54.56]You promised me
[01:55.52]You said you would
[01:56.56]You gotta give in
[01:57.54]So I'll be good
[01:58.46]Here's a tale you'll never forget
[02:00.47]Tap tap tap
[02:01.56]Ouch my tails all red
[02:03.84]And now get up to bed
[02:04.82]Ha ha come on daddy
