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
As I stood there beside her
I could hear her cry.
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.
