tell us a story (part b) - paul kelly lyrics

[intro]
la, la*la, la*la, la*la, la*la, la*la
la, la*la, la*la, la*la, la*la, la*la

[verse 1]
tell us a story, billy
i’ll get another big log for the fire
tell us a story, billy
with tricks and spells and mad desire
i know you got a story
to make our laughter roar
doesn’t matter that we’ve heard that tale
a hundred times or more
tell us a story, sweet william
a great long story

[verse 2]
tell us a story, rachel
of the man tied to the mast
tell us a story, rachel
how the sirens sang in vain as his ship passed
remember that old shepherd
who saved a royal babe
that babe became a man
and his own father slain
tell us a story, rachel
a great long story
[bridge]
that bitter wind keeps howling
outside our creaking door
but our roof is snug and tight
and we have enough in store
and even if soon this old world
is giving up the ghost
well, i don’t mind ’cause i’m right here
with the ones i love the most

[outro]
tell us a story
one more
a great long story
i’ll get another big log for the fire
