Tammy Wynette - Bedtime Story lyrics

And you've heard almost ev'ry nursery rhyme

So, tonight before you go to sleep

And pray the Lord your soul to keep

Here's mommy's favorite story one more time.

Once upon a time there was a castle

And in this castle lived a King and Queen

And it came to pass, they were both were blessed

By one little blue-eyed princess

With the softest golden curls you've ever seen.

But then one day, he met this pretty lady

And she had lots of pretty words to say

And this part makes your mommy sad

'Cause,oh, what big eyes she had

And she took his hand and led him far away

Still, it's just another bedtime story

But tellin' it brings teardrops to my eyes

Just another pretty bedtime story

So, please forgive mommy if she cries.

Then it came to pass, the King grew lonely

And the pretty lady wasn't all she seemed

He realized that he was wrong

And started his long journey home

For he misses little Princess and his Queen.

Then he was back and safe inside his castle

And tears of joy came pourin' down like rain

Then the castle rang with laughter

They lived happy ever after

Knowin' he would never leave again.

Still, it's just another bedtime story

But tellin' it brings teardrops to my eyes

Just another pretty bedtime story

So, please forgive mommy if she cries.

Won't you please forgive your mommy

If she cries
