I Love My Little Teddy

 
     
  I love my little teddy  
  His name is Eddy  
  My father says I'm soft because I'm five  
  But I don't care  
  I love my little bear  
  Somehow he makes me glad to be alive  
     
  When I'm in a muddle  
  Or when I want a cuddle  
  I hug my teddy  
  Then I feel allright  
  People say you silly-billy  
  But I say willy-nilly  
  Teddy's nice to snuggle up to in the night  
     
  And sometimes late at night  
  When I am full of fright  
  And there may be monsters there  
  But it is too dark to see  
  I hug my teddy bear  
  Which helps to ease my cares  
  And when I say a prayer  
  I know nothing can harm me  
     
  He never makes me cross  
  He seems to know that I'm the boss  
  He's been with me since I was only three  
  If I leave him home I find  
  That he's always on my mind  
  That's why I take him everwhere with me  
     
  When I play with my toys  
  And I make a lot of noise  
  And mother's cross old teddy doesn't mind  
  Grown-ups are so tough  
  But teddy isn't rough  
  He's soft and cuddly and he seems so kind  
     
  And if you knew  
  Teddy like I do  
  I'm sure that you  
  Would love him too
