One More Book

You know, Mom and Dad
When it’s time for me to go to bed
I like it when you read me stories
Nursery rhymes, fairy tales, picture books
Any kind of story’ll do
'Cause I said, Mama, won’t you read me
(One more book, one more book)
One more book before I go to bed?
(One more book, one more book)
Because I’m really not tired, I don’t wanna rest my head
(One more book, one more book)
(One more book, one more book)
I said, Daddy, won’t you read me
(One more book, one more book)
One more book before I turn out the light?
(One more book, one more book)
Because I’m really not tired, I don’t wanna say good night
(One more book, one more book)
(One more book, one more book)
