xD A7 D A7 When I was just a wee little lad, full of health and joy, G D E7 A7 My father homeward came one night and gave to me a toy. D A7 D G A wonder to behold it was with many colors bright G D A D A7 And the moment I laid eyes on it, It became my heart's delight. Chorus D A7 D G It went "Zip" when it moved and "Pop" when it stopped, "Whirrr" when it stood still G D A7 D I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will. The first time that I picked it up I had a big surprise Cause right on the bottom were two big buttons that looked like big green eyes I first pushed one and then the other, then I twisted its lid And when I set it down again, here is what it did: Chorus It first marched left, and then marched right and then marched under a chair And when I looked where it had gone it wasn't even there I started to cry, but my daddy laughed 'cause he knew that I would find, When I turned around my marvelous toy would be chugging from behind. Chorus The years have gone by too quickly it seems, I have my own little boy And yesterday I gave to him my marvelous little toy: His eyes nearly popped right out of his head and he gave a squeal of glee! Neither one of us knows just what it is but he loves it just like me! It still goes... Chorus
