I'm Gonna Tell
I'm Gonna Tell on You
(Rosalie Sorrels with added lyrics by Mike Anderson)
Chorus
I'm gonna tell, I'm gonna tell
I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna yell
I'll get you in trouble for everything you do
I'm gonna tell on you
Verses
I'm gonna tell where you stuck your gum
And I'm gonna tell that you suck your thumb
I'm gonna tell about the cat and the glue
I'm gonna tell on you
I'm gonna tell you said a bad word
I'm gonna tell just what I heard
But, I'm not gonna tell what I said to you
I'm just gonna tell on you
I'm gonna tell how you broke the plate
And I'll tell about all the bananas you ate
I'll tell on you one time, I'll tell on you two
I'm gonna tell on you
I'm gonna tell that you hid the broom
Just to get out of cleanin' your room
And when Mom finds out, she'll sweep the floor with you
I'm gonna tell on you
I'm gonna tell how you punched me and bit me
And I'm gonna tell how you socked me and hit me
But I'm not gonna tell what I did to you
I'm gonna tell on you
I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna bawl
Mom's gonna smash you all over the wall
And when Dad comes home, I'm gonna tell him too
I'm gonna tell on you
