[Eb] [Dm] [F]
[Bb] When I was [F] just a wee little [Bb] lad, full of [F] health and joy,
[Eb] My father [Bb] homeward came one [C] day and gave to [F] me a toy.
[Bb] A wonder to [F] behold it was, [Bb] with many [Eb] colors bright,
And the moment I [Bb] laid eyes on it, it became my [Gm] heart's delight.
And it [Bb] went, when it moved, [F] and when it stopped,
[Bb] And when it [Eb] stood still, I never knew [Bb] just what [F] it was,
And I guess I never [Bb] will.
[Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
Now the first time that I [F] picked it up, [Bb] I had a big [F] surprise,
[Eb] For right on the bottom were [Dm] two big [C] buttons that looked like big [G] green [Bb] eyes.
I first pushed one, [F] and then the other, [Bb] then I twisted its lid,
And when I set it [Bb] down again, [C] well here is what it [A] did.
It [Bb] went, when it moved, [F] and when it stopped,
[Bb] And when it stood [Eb] still, I never knew [Bb] just what it was,
And [F] I guess I never [Bb] will.
[Eb] [Bb]
[Gb] [B] It first marched left, [Db] and then marched right, [B] and then marched under [Gb] the chair,
[E] And when I looked where it had gone, [Db] it wasn't [Gb] even there.
[B] I started to cry, [Db] and my daddy laughed, [B] he knew just what [E] I'd find.
When I turned around, [B] my marvelous toy [Gb] came chugging from behind.
And it [B] went, when it [Gb] moved, and when it stopped,
[B] And when it [E] stood still, I never knew [B] just what it was,
[Gb] And I guess I [B] never will.

[Ebm] [B]
Well, the years have gone [Db] by too quickly it [B] seems, and I have my [Gb] own little boy.
[E] And yesterday [B] I gave to him [Db] my marvelous [Gb] little toy.
[B] His eyes nearly [Gb] popped right out of his [B] head, and he gave a [E] squeal of glee.
Neither one of us [B] knows just what it is, but he loves it [Gb] just like me.
It [B] still goes, when [Gb] it moves, and when it [B] stops, and [Dbm] when it stands still,
[E] I never [B] knew just what it [Gb] was, and I guess I never will.
