Lyrics

We've got to do our alma mater We must do our alma mater When I was a little bitty boy My 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 Beautiful, you're beautiful, beautiful And then momma took me to grammar school But I stopped off in the best of youth Everytime that bell would ring Catch me playin' 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 Ah, that is beautiful You know what I heard, I heard I hear two girls over here singing in harmony That's alright, honey This is a free country, live like you wanna live, baby Yeah, ain't nobody gonna knock it, darlin' Yeah, freedom Yessir, there's one guy right over here singing my line too That's alright, brother Yessir, you got a right, baby Ain't nobody gonna bother you, I'm tellin' you 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-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 You know that's future parliament out there singing? Oh yeah (yeah) Once, I was swimmin' 'cross Turtle Creek Man, them snappers all around my feet Sure was hard swimmin' 'cross that thing With both hands holdin' 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 That's so beautiful I think that's a beautiful little song, really I do And guess what, everybody's still not singing There's a few right down front here that's not singing We're going to dedicate this verse to those who will not sing Yessir This here song, it ain't so sad The cutest little song you ever had Those of you who will not sing You must be playin' with your own ding-a-ling 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 own ding-a-ling, your own ding-a-ling We saw you playin' with your own 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) Slow down, I wanna play, everybody With my ding-a-ling
