Shaney Boy
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
GLittle boy you Cseem to wake up D7earlier every Gmorning
GCome running from your Cbed to greet the D7day
GWith a pair of sleepy Ceyes that could have D7slept a little Glonger
And a Cthousand urgent Amthings you have to Dsay.
Refrain
And the Cmorning passes D7quickly in the Gspringtime
And the Cspringtime brings such fascinating D7games
CPuppy dogs and D7chocolate frogs and Gfishing lines
And Cpretending that you didn't hear your D7mommy call your Gname.
Couplet
GShaney Boy your Clunch is growing D7cold here on the Gtable
GAnd you have to eat these Cthings to make you D7grow
GAnd I know you're only Cscared that you'll be D7missing out on Gsomething
But even Cbusy people Amhave to eat you Dknow.
Refrain
And the Cafternoon goes D7quickly when there's Ggood times
And there's Cgood times in the garden D7every day
CLittle friendly D7butterflies that Gflutter by
And a Clittle friend to help you D7chase those butterflies Gaway.
Couplet
GShaney Boy those Ceyes of yours are D7looking kind of Gdrowsy
GAnd I know you never Cwant the day to D7end
GBut just think if you Cclose your eyes and D7lie back on your Gpillow
Won't be Clong before the Ammorning's here Dagain.
Refrain
And the CMorning passes D7quickly in our Glifetime
And Cbefore you even notice that D7it's gone.
CSo little boy I'm D7noticing the Gnice times now
Cos I Cknow that little boys D7don't stay little boys Gfor long
