I'll Write And I'll Draw

(album: Songs To Grow On For Mother And Child - 1956)

I'll write and I'll draw and I'll spell you a word
Big "A" and a little "A" and a middle size "A"
I'll make you a number, two six and one
And I'll scramble 'em around so you can see them run

Take my pencil, crayon, and brush
Big "B" and a little "B" and a new kind of "B"
I'll spell ten kitty-cats up in a tree
And I'll squish 'em around so you can see

Write, write, write, and scribble and scrap
Big "C" and a little "C" and a middle size "C"
Write my mommy and write my dad
Prettiest letter I ever did read

Splish splash, splish splash, chicky my chalk
Mama "D", Papa "D" and a little baby "D"
Double one, double two, double "X", "Y", "Z"
Red, blue, and yellow, and a brown-eyed green

I dibble, I dabble, I doodle, I write
Grandma "E" and Grandpa "E" and a freckle-faced "D"
Everybody climbing a green-leafed tree
The funniest people I ever did see

I'll write and I'll draw and I'll spell you a word
Big "A" and a little "A" and a middle size "A"
I'll make you a number, two six and one
And I'll scramble 'em around and make 'em run

Take my pencil, crayon, and brush
Big "B" and a little "B" and a new kind of "B"
I'll spell ten kitty-cats up in a tree
And squish 'em around so you can see

Write, write, write, write, scribble and scrap
Big "C" and a little "C" and a middle size "C"
Write my mommy and write my dad
The prettiest letter I ever did see
