When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the stars settle down for a rest
Just do me one small favor, I beg you
Please play me my baby s request
It s the song that we heard when we started
Now the birds have all flown from our nest
But you could bring back memories, departed
By playing my baby s request
My ba--by said that she knows how it goes
But you re the one that really knows
So go a head
Just one more time and then we ll go to bed
INSTRUMENTAL VERSE
But you could bring back memories, departed
By playing my baby s request
My ba--by said that she knows how it goes
But you re the one that really knows
So go a head
Just one more time and then we ll go to bed
When the moon lays his head on a pillow
And the stars settle down for a rest
Just do me one small favor, I beg you
Please play me my baby s request
Play me my baby s request
Please play me
My baby s request
