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
(Chorus)
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine all mine
They can't take it away
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
(Chorus)
Oh father what can I do
The little black egg's going to tell on you
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
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg
To see my little black egg
