Well when I was young my momma

Read the nursery rhymes beside my bed

And though they sounded mighty fine

They made no sense to me

But now that I am all grown up

It seems my life had changed as such

So I went out and made me up a nursery

rhyme for me

Chorus

It goes barlight, bar bright

First bar I see tonight

Wish I may, wish I might

Find someone to hold me tight

Hey diddle diddle man with a fiddle and

The girls sing along with the tunes

Just one more dance till you turn

Out the lights and you can

Shut down this saloon

You know I never understood

How a big ol' gal could raise

No kids in a shoe and any ol' jack

Goes jumpin' a candle needs

To find somethin' better to do

And a rub-a-dub-dub three men in a tub

Sure sounds kinda funny to me

So I made up a honky tonk

Nursery rhyme and it's the only

one I'll sing

Chorus

You know I never understood

How a big ol' gal could raise

No kids in a shoe and any ol' jack

Goes jumpin' a candle needs

To find somethin' better to do

And a rub-a-dub-dub three men in a tub

Sure sounds kinda funny to me

So I made up a honky tonk

Nursery rhyme and it's the only one I'll sing

Chorus

Just one more dance till you turn

Out the lights and you can

Shut down the saloon
