|
It's time now to pick all the toys off the floor |
|
I'll say it again and I've said it before |
|
We don't have a nickel to spend at the store |
|
And don't run away from me now |
|
Your daddy's gone looking to find him a job |
|
Your grandmother's sent all her welfare to God |
|
Your brother's been taking it out on the dog |
|
So don't run away from me now |
|
There's you and your brothers and sisters to care for |
|
But I don't know how when we ain't got the wherefor |
|
So come let me hug you and show you what love's for |
|
And don't run away from me now |
|
The screaming and shouting's all done for today |
|
I'll clear up the mess when you're all out the way |
|
So give us a kiss 'cause there's nothing to say |
|
But don't run away from me now |
|
There's you and your brothers and sisters to care for |
|
A whole lot of things that you should say your prayers for |
|
So don't make a fuss now or I'll give you what for |
|
Just don't run away from me now |
|
Don't run away from me now |
