I don't care what they say
|
I'm gonna keep it anyway
|
I won't let them stretch their necks
|
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
I found it in a tree
|
Just the other day
|
And now it's mine, all mine
|
You can't take it away
|
|
Verse 2:
|
|
Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
|
I got what they want to see
|
I won't let them stretch their necks
|
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
|
|
[repeat chorus]
|
|
Verse 3:
|
|
Oh, father, what can I do?
|
(well)The little black egg's gonna tell on you
|
And, I won't let them stretch their necks
|
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
|
|
The little black egg... [repeat to fade]
