Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good - Hank Snow/Henry Whitter/Clayton McMichen[00:00:00]
A laughing baby boy one evening in his play[00:00:07]
Disturbed the household with his noisy glee[00:00:13]
I warned him to be quiet but he soon would disobey[00:00:19]
For he would soon forget a word from me[00:00:25]
I called him to my side and said son you must go to bed[00:00:31]
Your conduct has been very very rude[00:00:37]
With quivering lips and tear filled eyes he pleaded then with me[00:00:43]
Don't make me go to bed and i'll be good[00:00:49]
Don't papa and i'll be good don't papa and i'll be good[00:00:56]
That's what i heard him say and it haunts me night and day[00:01:07]
Don't make me go to bed and i'll be good[00:01:13]
Our lives have just been gladdened by his bright ascending beam[00:01:19]
Our boy now in our heart was very dear[00:01:25]
We hastened to his bed night he talking in his sleep[00:01:32]
He didn't seem to know that we were near[00:01:38]
So i took him in my arms and found his body raked with pain[00:01:44]
To ease the pain we did the best we could[00:01:51]
It broke my heart to hear him crying so loudly in his sleep[00:01:57]
Don't make me go to bed and i'll be good[00:02:03]
Don't papa and i'll be good don't papa and i'll be good[00:02:10]
That's what i heard him say and it haunts me night and day[00:02:22]
Don't make me go to bed and i'll be good[00:02:28]
All night and day we watched and prayed we never left his side[00:02:34]
To give him up it seemed we never could[00:02:40]
It broke my heart to hear him crying just before he died[00:02:46]
Don't make me go to bed papa and i'll be good[00:02:52]
Don't papa and i'll be good[00:02:59]
Don't papa and i'll be good[00:03:05]
That's what i heard him say and it haunts me night and day[00:03:11]
Don't make me go to bed papa and i'll be good i'll be good[00:03:17]
