Henry's Songbook

cho:
   A little bit more, a little bit more
   Not very much, but a little bit more
   A little bit more, a little bit more
   Not very much, but a little bit more

When I was young my father said,
It's time that children went to bed
But we would always cry and roar,
I want to stay up just a little bit more

And when the morning came along
you could hear that same old song
When there came a knocking on the door,
I want to lie on, just a little bit more

I met a girl called Mary Rose,
I says, Young girl, can I kiss your nose
She says, I've met your likes before,
all that you want is a little bit more

The barman cries, There's no more beer,
drink up your drinks and get out of here
Still you see them hanging round the door,
hoping to get in for a little bit more

And when your days are nearly done,
before you cross that Rubicon
The doctor says your time is o'er
but you pray to the Lord for a little bit more
