WELL WHEN I WAS YOUNG
MY MAMA READ ME
NURSERY RHYMES
BESIDE MY BED
AND THOUGH
THEY SOUNDED
MIGHTY FINE
THEY MADE NO SENSE
TO ME
NOW THAT I AM
ALL GROWN-UP
IT SEEMS MY NIGHTS
HAVE CHANGED AS SUCH
SO I WENT OUT
AND MADE ME UP
A NURSERY RHYME
FOR ME
IT GOES BARLIGHT
BAR BRIGHT
FIRST BAR
THAT I SEE TONIGHT
WISH I MAY
WISH I MIGHT
FIND SOMEONE
TO HOLD ME TIGHT
HEY DIDDLE DIDDLE
THE MAN
WITH THE FIDDLE
AND THE GIRLS
SING ALONG
WITH THE TUNES
JUST-A ONE MORE DANCE
TILL YA TURN OUT
THE LIGHTS
AND YOU CAN
SHUT DOWN THIS SALOON
YOU KNOW
I'VE NEVER UNDERSTOOD
HOW A BIG OL' GAL
COULD RAISE NO KIDS
IN A SHOE
AND ANY OL' JACK
GOES JUMPIN' A CANDLE
NEEDS TO FIND
SOMETHIN' BETTER TO DO
AND-A RUB-A-DUB-DUB
THREE MEN IN A TUB
SURE SOUNDS
KINDA FUNNY TO ME
SO I MADE UP
A HONKY-TONK
NURSERY RHYME
AND IT'S THE ONLY ONE
I'LL SING
IT GOES BARLIGHT
BAR BRIGHT
FIRST BAR
THAT I SEE TONIGHT
WISH I MAY
WISH I MIGHT
FIND SOMEONE
TO HOLD ME TIGHT
HEY DIDDLE DIDDLE
THE MAN
WITH THE FIDDLE
AND THE GIRLS
SING ALONG
WITH THE TUNES
JUST-A ONE MORE DANCE
TILL YA TURN OUT
THE LIGHTS
AND YOU CAN
SHUT DOWN THIS SALOON
I SAID
