Maybe it’s only — cuz I’m so poor
That you don’t count me — anymore
Maybe I’m tryin’ to compare
Take my picture — don’t you dare
Maybe it’s only — cuz I fall
I’m so much closer — but yer so tall
But I’m no baby — I ain’t no child
I’ll get to bed soon — in awhile
Hear me crawlin’ down your stairs
Count your children — don’t be scared
My wooden floor is awful bare
But you can’t take me — I’m not there
Cuz I’m screamin’ — cuz I’m tired
I’m a little bit lonesome, I’m not so dire
But I’m no baby — I’m no child
I’ll get in bed now — just for awhile
Hear me callin’ down your stairs
Count your babies — one’s not there
One’s not there
