C G7 C G7
When I was just a wee little lad full of health and joy
F C D7 G7
My father home-ward came one night and gave to me a toy
C G7 C F
A wonder to behold it was, with many colors bright
F D7 G7
The moment I laid eyes on it, it became my hearts delight
CH:
C G7
It went ZIP when it moved, and BOP when it stopped
C F
And WHIRRR when it stood still
C G7 C
I never knew just what it was And I guess I never will
2)The first time that I picked it up I had a big surprise
For right on it's bottom were 2 big buttons that looked like big green eyes
I first pushed one and then the other and then I twisted it's lid
And when I set it down again, this is what it did CH:
3)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 sob and daddy laughed, for he knew what I would find
When I turned around my marvelous toy, chugging from behind CH:
4)The years have gone by quickly it seems, I have my own little boy
And yesterday I gave to him, my own 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 CH:
I always think of this as a Christmas song. I used periods between
chords cuz my editor otherwise moves them around.
