It's getting late
My watch says
It's half past eight
In an hour
I must go
When I'll be back
Well, I don't know
While I'm gone
You'll be the man
Help your mama
When you can
It's a big job
I can see
For a boy
Just pushing three
Son can I have
A little kiss
Just a small one
You won't miss
That's right close
Your sleepy eyes
You shouldn't see
Your daddy cry
So go to sleep
It's getting late
My watch says
It's half past eight
In an hour
I must go
When I'll be back
Well, I don't know
Go to sleep It's getting late My watch says It's half past eight In an hour I must go When I'll be back Well, I don't know While I'm gone You'll be the man Help your mama When you can It's a big job I can see For a boy Just pushing three Son can I have A little kiss Just a small one You won't miss That's right close Your sleepy eyes You shouldn't see Your daddy cry So go to sleep It's getting late My watch says It's half past eight In an hour I must go When I'll be back Well, I don't know Explain Request ×
