When i was just a wee little lad full of health and joy One year for christmas i recieved a marvelous little toy A wonder to behold it was With many colors bright And the moment that i set eyes on it It give me hearts delight And it went zoom when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never knew just what it was I guess i never will From the moment that i picked it up I had a big surprise For right on his bottom were two big buttons That looked like big green eyes Well the first pushed one And then the other And then i twisted it limbs And when i set it down again Well this is what it did It whet zoom when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never knew just what it was And i guess i never will The first marched left and then marched right And then marched under a chair And when i looked where it had gone It wasnt even there I started to cry And daddy laughed For he knew that i would find When i turned around that marvelous toy Came a chugging from behind It whet zoom when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never knew just what it was And i guess i never will And it went zoomed when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never new just what it was And i guess i never will Well the years have passed So quickly it seems Now i have me own little boy And yesterday i gave to him That marvelous little toy Well his eyes nearly popped Right out of his head And he gave a squeal of glee Neither oneof us knows just what it is But he loves it just like me And it went zoom when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never knew just what it was And i guess i never will And it went zoom when it moved Up when it stopped Whirr when it stood still I never knew just what it was And i guess i never will
