So much to say and so little time to say it in

I've got so much to say, baby, ha

But so little time to say it in

But whatever I tell ya'

I hope that you will obey



Now listen

Say your prayers ev'ry night

And be so good while I'm away

Now listen here

Say your prayers ev'ry night

and be so good while I'm away

Because you know I won't be gone for long

I'll be back home with you one of these little old days, hmm-mm



I know, I know, I know



As I'd have said so many times

I got so much to say and so little time to say it in

So much to say and so little time to say it in

And I know you'll be be a good little girl

while I'm away

Oh yeah hmm
