Hank Thompson — Then Ill Start Believing in You

[Intro] (Twinkle, twinkle, little star) [Verse 1] Tell me how the cow jumped over the moon How the little lady lived in a shoe How Jack on the beanstalk climbed to the sky Then I’ll start believing in you [Verse 2] Tell me how Jack Horner got a plumb from his thumb And how Humpty Dumpty fell I’m a lot more able to believe in a fable Than all the other stories you tell [Verse 3] You got a new fur coat and you told me quote You won it at a Stanley party Stanley must be quite a guy and his parties sure run high Cause the price tag read four-hundred and forty (What Party?) [Verse 4] So tell me Cinderella did you get your fella Just by losing your shoe When I’ve got the time to believe in nursery rhymes Then I’ll start believing in you [Instrumental] [Verse 5] You come home the other day from the PTA With your hair a little damp and beaten Now, they don't wear bikinis and hand out martinis Down at the school house meeting (So neaten) [Verse 6] Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie Every little verse I know When I believe there’s truth in old mother goose Then I’ll start believing in you [Outro] Then I’ll start believing in you (Mary had a little lamb)
