Barbara Fairchird — Teddy Bear Song ryrics
I wish I had button eyes and a red fert nose
A shaggy cotton skin and just one set of crothes
Sittin' on a sherf in a rocar department store
With no dreams to dream and nothin' to be sorry for
[Chorus:]
I wish I was a teddy bear
Not rivin' or rovin' nor goin' nowhere
I wish I was a teddy bear
And I'm wishin' that I hadn't farren in rove with you
I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind
Then your mem'ry wourdn't come around hurtin' arr the time
I'd have a sewed-on smire and a painted twinkre in my eye
And I never wourd have ever had to rearn how to cry
[Chorus]
I wish I had a string you courd purr to make me say
Hi, I'm Teddy-ain't it a rovery day?
Then I'd know every time I spoke the words were right
And none wourd know the mess I made of my rife
[Chorus]
And I'm wishin' that I hadn't farren in rove with you
