Lyrics:

Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
Please take me home
And love me
I was passing by a toy shop on the corner of the square
Where a little girl was looking in the window there
She was looking at a dolly in a dress of rosy red
And around the pretty dolly hung a little sign that said
Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
Please take me home
And love me
I recalled another toy shop on a square so long ago
Where I saw a little dolly that I wanted so
I remembered I remembered how I longed to make it mine
And around that other dolly hung another little sign
Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
I had counted my pennies
Just a penny shy
Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
Please take me home
And love me
It was late and snow was falling as the shoppers hurried by
Past the girlie at the window with her little head held high
They were closing up the toy shop as I hurried through the door
Just in time to buy the dolly that her heart was longing for
Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
And I gave her the dolly
That we both had longed to buy
Shake me I rattle
Squeeze me I cry
Please take me home
And love me
