Tattletale
Composer(s): Bob Schaefer - Irving Rose - Jack Lawrence



You're a tattletale
You keep rushing to and fro
Babbling like a radio
Telling everything you know
When you're supposed to keep it in ya
You spread it from Virginia to Seattle
Tattletale
You're a tattletale
I should hide you on a shelf
You're a mischief-making elf
Even tattle on yourself
Altho' I tell you many secrets
They aren't any secrets when you prattle
Tattletale
It wouldn't matter that you chatter
And you get in my hair
If you'd get into my arms
Blabber, blabber, jibber, jabber, what do I care
About who married who, if it isn't me and you!
But you're lovable
I'm completely mad about
And what dreams I've had about you
You little gadabout
Why don't you shout it from a steeple
And tell a million people
That I love you, tattletale
