C C7 F Dm
Shake me I rattle squeeze me I cry
G7 C
Please take me home and love me
G7 C F Dm
I was passing by a toy shop on the corner of the square
G7 C
Where a little girl was looking in the window there
F Dm
She was looking at a dolly in a dress of rosy red
Ab7 C G7 C
And around the pretty dolly hung a little sign that said
repeat #1
G7 C F Dm
I recalled another toy shop on a square so long ago
G7 C
Where I saw a little dolly that I wanted so
F Dm
I remembered I remembered how I longed to make it mine
Ab7 C G7 C
And around that other dolly hung another little sign
C7 F Dm
Shake me I rattle squeeze me I cry
G7 C
I had counted my pennies just a penny shy
C7 F Dm
Shake me I rattle squeeze me I cry
G7 C G7
Please take me home and love me
C F Dm
It was late and snow was falling as the shoppers hurried by
G7 C
Past the girlie at the window with her little head held high
F Dm
They were closing up the toy shop as I hurried through the door
Ab7 C G7 C
Just in time to buy the dolly that her heart was longing for
C7 F Dm
Shake me I rattle squeeze me I cry
G7 C
And I gave her the dolly that we both had longed to buy
C7 F Dm
Shake me I rattle squeeze me I cry
G7 C
Please take me home and love me
