When I was just a wee little boy, full of health and joy
F C D7 G
One Christmas morning I received a marvellous little toy
C G C F
A wonder to behold it was, with many colors bright
F C D7 G
And the first time I laid eyes on it, it became my heart’s delight

C
It went zip when it moved
G
Bop when it stopped
C F
Whirrr when it stood still
F C
I never knew just what it was
G C
And I guess I never will

F C G C

C G C G
The first time that I picked it up I had a big surprise
F C D7 G
For right on it’s bottom were two big buttons that looked like big green eyes
C G C F
I first pushed one, then the other, then I twisted it’s lid
F C D7 G
And when I set it down again, this is what it did

C
It went zip when it moved
G
Bop when it stopped
C F
Whirrr when it stood still
F C
I never knew just what it was
G C
And I guess I never will

F C G C

C G C G
It first marched left, then marched right and then marched under a chair
F C D7 G
And when I looked where it had gone it wasn’t even there
C G C F
I started to cry, my daddy laughed, he knew that I would find
F C D7 G
When I turned around my marvelous toy chugging from behind

C
It went zip when it moved
G
Bop when it stopped
C F
Whirrr when it stood still
F C
I never knew just what it was
G C
And I guess I never will

C G C G
The years have passed too quickly it seems, I have my own little boy
F C D7 G
And yesterday I gave to him my marvelous little toy
C G C F
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head, he gave a squeal of glee
F C D7 G
Neither one of us knows just what it is but he loves it just like me

C
It still goes zip when it moves
G
Bop when it stops
C F
Whirrr when it stands still
F C
I never knew just what it was
G C
And I guess I never will
F C
I never knew just what it was
G C
And I guess I never will
