When I was a [Ab] little bitty [Bb] boy my grandmother bought [Eb] me a cute little toy
[Ab] Silver bells hanging on a string.
[Am] She told me it [Eb] was my ding-a-ling-a-ling
My ding-a-ling, [Ab] my ding-a-ling, [Bb] my ding-a-ling, [Eb] my ding-a-ling, [Ab] my ding-a-ling, [B] my [Eb] ding-a-ling
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
[Ab] Mmmmm, and then mama took me to grammar school
[F] But I stopped off [Eb] in the Vesta View
Every time that [Ab] bell would ring, [Bb]
catch me playing [Eb] with my ding-a-ling-a-ling
My ding-a-ling, [Ab] my ding-a-ling, [Bb] my [Eb] ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, [Ab] my ding-a-ling
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] Oh, that is beautiful, James
You know what I heard?
I heard, [G] I hear two girls over here singing in [E] harmony
That's alright, honey
This is a free country, live [G] like you wanna live, baby
Yeah, ain't nobody gonna [Eb] knock it, darling
Mmm-mmm, yeah, freedom
[G] Yes, sir, there's [Bb] one guy right over here singing [Ab] Maya, too
That's [Eb] alright, brother
Yes, sir, you got it right, baby
Ain't nobody gonna bother you
Once I was climbing [F] the garden wall
I slipped and [Eb] had a terrible fall
I fell so hard I heard bells ring
[Bb] But held on to [Eb] my ding-a-ling-a-ling
My ding-a-ling, [Fm] my ding-a-ling, [Bb]
[Eb] my ding-a-ling, [D] my [Ab] ding-a-ling, [Bb]
[Eb] my ding-a-ling
Mmm, you know that's future parliament out there singing?
Oh, yeah!
Mmm, once I was swimming [Ab] across Turtle [G] Creek
Man, them snappers [Eb] all around my feet
Sure was [Ab] hard swimming across that thing
With both [G] hands holding [Eb] my feet
My [Ab] ding-a-ling, [Bb] my
[Eb] ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, [Ab] my [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] ding-a-ling
That's so beautiful, I think it's a beautiful [Eb] little song, really I do
And guess what?
Everybody's still not singing
There's a few right down front here that's not singing
We're gonna dedicate this verse to those who will not sing Yes, sir
[Bbm] [Eb] Mmm, this here song, [Ab] it ain't so sad
