Remember when you scraped your knees? Crying “Momma, hold me once more, please” And out she’d run and she’d dry your eyes Saying “It’s okay baby now rockabye”
Sing to me again, oh mom, I’m tired and I can’t sleep Sing to me again, oh mom, I’m tired and I can’t sleep
You miss the songs in your dad’s old car The first time you heard it and watched the stars When the nights were cold and your light-up shoes Would stomp on the pavement and twinkle blue
Read to me again, oh dad, I’m tired and I can’t sleep Read to me again, oh dad, I’m tired and I can’t sleep
Remember when the pictures aged When the clock kept ticking and the band kept playing Now the nights are cold and I dry my eyes I sing “It’s okay baby rockabye”
Well read to me again, oh dad, I’m tired and I can’t sleep Well sing to me again, oh mom, I’m tired and I can’t sleep
