Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine, all mine
They can't take it away
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine, all mine
They can't take it away
[Verse 5]
Oh, partner, 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
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
My little black egg
My little black egg
My little black egg
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg...
