I don't care what they say....
I'm going to keep it anyway.
I won't let them stretch their necks....

To see my little black egg with the little white specks.

I found it in a tree...

Just the other day......
Now it's mine, all mine....
They won't take it away.


Here comes Mary, Here comes Lee.....
I've 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.


I found it in a tree...
Just the other day......
Now it's mine, all mine....

They won't take it away.

Oh Father, what can I do?

The little black egg's gonna tell on you.
I won't let them stretch their necks....
To see my little black egg with the little white specks.


I found it in a tree...
Just the other day......

Now it's mine, all mine....
They won't take it away.


My little black egg...........(repeat and fade)
