...how do you make a chicken sneeze, tell me about the fish you caught thats bigger than a whale.

this song ["Tell Me A Story"]was on the reverse side of "The old man and the Boy" by Jimmy Boyd about 1950

>>>>" Old man, old man, is the world really 'round, and when you were a boy did you cry like I do?...

[I've added some additional lyrics for you here, enjoy.]

>>I Can only remember the chorus:
>>
>>Tell me a story, tell me a story
>>Tell me a story before I go to bed
[...THEN I'll go to bed...

>>You promised me, you said you would
>>You better give in so I'll be good
[...GOTTA give in...]

>>Tell me a story before [THEN] I go to bed.
