Lyrics:
Teddy Bear Song barbara Fairchild words And Music By Don Earl And Nick Nixon
(Peak Billboard Position 32 In 1973)
i Wish I Had Button Eyes And A Red Felt Nose a Shaggy Cotton Skin And Just One Set Of Clothes sittin' On A Shelf In A Local Department Store with No Dreams To Dream And Nothin' To Be Sorry For
chorus i Wish I Was A Teddy Bear not Livin' Or Lovin' Nor Goin' Nowhere i Wish I Was A Teddy Bear and I'm Wishin' That I Hadn't Fallen In Love With You
i Wish I Had A Wooden Heart And A Sawdust Mind then Your Mem'ry Wouldn't Come Around Hurtin' All The Time i'd Have A Sewed-On Smile And A Painted Twinkle In My Eye and I Never Would Have Ever Had To Learn How To Cry
chorus
i Wish I Had A String You Could Pull To Make Me Say 'hi, I'm Teddy-Ain't It A Lovely Day' then I'd Know Every Time I Spoke The Words Were Right and None Would Know The Mess I Made Of My Life
chorus
and I'm Wishin' That I Hadn't Fallen In Love With You
