Lyrics of The teddy bear song

The teddy bear song
(nick nixon - don earl)
'72 champion music

I wish i had button eyes and red fat nose
A shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes
Sittin' on the shelf in the local department store
With no dreams to dream and nothin' to be sorry for
I wish i was a teddy bear not living nor loving nor going nowhere
I wish i was a teddy bear and i'm wishin' 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 to hurt all the time
I'd have a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye
And i never would've ever had to learn how to cry
I wish i was a teddy bear...
I wish i had a string you'd pull to make me say hi i'm teddy ain't that a lovely day
Then i'd know everytime i've spoke the words were right
And no one would know the mess i made in my life
I wish i was a teddy bear...
And i'm wishin' i hadn't fallen in love with you
