Chuck Berry – My Ding-a-Ling

When I was a little bitty boy
My grandmother bought me a cute little toy
Silver bells hanging on a string
She told me it was my ding-a-ling-a-ling, oh

My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

Hmm, and then mama took me to grammar school
But I stopped off in the vestibule
Every time that bell would ring
Catch me playing with my ding-a-ling-a-ling, oh

My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!

Oh, that is beautiful
You know what I heard, I heard
I heard two girls over here singing in harmony, that’s all right, honey
This is a free country, live like you wanna live, baby!
Yeah, ain’t nobody gonna knock it, doll, mm-mm
Yeah, freedom
Yes sir, there’s one guy right over here singin’ “mine” too, that’s all right, brother!
Yes sir, you got a right, baby, ain’t nobody gonna bother you, tell you

Once I was climbing the garden wall
I slipped and had a terrible fall
I fell so hard I heard bells ring
But held on to my ding-a-ling-a-ling

My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!

Hmm, you know that’s future parliament out there singin’?
Oh yeah! (yeah!)

Hmm, once I was swimming ‘cross turtle creek
Man, them snappers all around my feet
Sure was hard swimming ‘cross that thing
With both hands holding my ding-a-ling

Oh, my ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!

That’s so beautiful
I think it’s a beautiful little song, really I do
And guess what, everybody’s still not singing
There’s a few right down front here that’s not singing
We’re gonna dedicate this verse to those who will not sing, yes sir

Hmm, this here song it ain’t so sad
The cutest little song you ever had
Those of you who will not sing
You must be playing with your own ding-a-ling

My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!
My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling!

Oh, your own, ding-a-ling, your own ding-a-ling, we saw you playing with your ding-a-ling
Oh, my ding-a-ling, everybody sing, I want to play with my, everybody

My ding-a-ling, oh, my, ding-a-ling
Slow down, I want to play, everybody, with my ding-a-ling!
