Eggbert, the Easter Egg Rosemary Clooney (Ft. Percy Faith & His Orchestra)

[Verse 1]

Eggbert, the Easter egg

Was a pretty little Easter egg

Cutest thing you ever saw

In the window of a big department store

All day the children came

Noses pressed against the windowpane

Spoke to Eggbert, but alack

Eggbert cried because he couldn't answer back

Then all at once, the clouds rolled by

To let the sun shine through

Believe it or not, it got so hot

That Eggbert split in two

Out popped a baby chick

A teeny weeny little baby chick

And the children hear him say

"Eggbert wishes you a happy Easter day"

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]

Eggbert, the Easter egg

Was a pretty little Easter egg

Cutest thing you ever saw

In the window of a big department store

All day the children came

Noses pressed against the windowpane

Spoke to Eggbert, but alack

Eggbert cried because he couldn't answer back

Then all at once, the clouds rolled by

To let the sun shine through

Believe it or not, it got so hot

That Eggbert split in two

Out popped a baby chick

A teeny weeny little baby chick

And the children hear him say

"Eggbert wishes you a happy Easter day"
