My Ding A Ling
When I was a little bitty boyMy grandmother bought me a cute little toy.Silver bells hanging on a string,She told me it was my ding a ling a ling.Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.My ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.And then mama took me took me to grammar school,But I stopped off in the vestibue.Every time that bell would ring,Catch me playing with my ding a ling a ling.Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.My ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.Once I was climbing the garden wall.I slipped and had a terrible fall.I fell so hard I heard bells ring,But held on to my ding a ling.Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.My ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.Once I was swimming across turtle creek,Man, them snappers all around my feet.Sure was hard swimming across that thingWith both hands holding my ding a ling.Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.My ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.This here so song, it ain't so sad.The cutest little song you ever had.Those of you who will not sing,You must be playing with your own ding a ling.Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.My ding a ling, my ding a ling,I want you to play with my ding a ling.Your ding a ling, your ding a ling,We saw you playing with your ding a ling.My ding a ling, everybody sing,I want to play with my ding,Everybody, my ding a ling,Oh my ding a ling,I want to play with my ding a ling.
