TIE ME TO YOUR APRON STRINGS AGAIN

Verse: Like a kid who stays a-way from school,
I left to roam, played hook-ey from Home Sweet Home.
I've been like most an-y fool,
Who goes a-way to stay, that's why I say.

Chorus:
Tie me to your ap-ron strings a-gain,
I know there's room for me, up-on your knee.
Bring back all those hap-py hours when,
you kissed my tears a-way, From day to day.
I thought that I was right, but I was wrong.
Please take me back to-night, where I be-long
Sing a cra-dle song to me and then
Won't you tie me to your a-pron strings a-gain.

Circa 1925
