The Little Black Egg Lyrics

The Cars

I don't care what they say
I'm gonna keep it anyway
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks

Chorus:

I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine, all mine
You can't take it away

Verse 2:

Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
I got what they want to see
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

Oh, father, what can I do?
(well)The little black egg's gonna tell on you
And, I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks

The little black egg... [repeat to fade]
