Lyrics

Mama's Gonna Buy

Mama's gonna buy him a little lapdog

Mama's gonna buy him a little lapdog

Mama's gonna buy him a little lapdog

Put it in his lap when she goes off

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Go to sleep and don't you cry

Mama's gonna make you an apple pie

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey

I'm gonna buy you a little lapdog

I'm gonna buy you a little lapdog

I'm gonna buy you a little lapdog

Put it in your lap when I go off

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Go to sleep and don't you cry

I'm gonna make you an apple pie

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey

Come up horsey, hey, hey
