Teddy Took a Train Ride
Teddy took a train ride packed in a box
He was made in a factory far far away
Clickity clack rollin' down the track
To get to my party on my birthday
But he wasn't mine yet, no, no, no
He had miles of oceans and mountains to go, so
Teddy took a plane ride packed in a box
With a roar and a whoosh he was on his way
Flying so high in the bright blue sky
To get to my party on my birthday
But he wasn't mine yet, no, no, no
He had miles of highway and roads to go, so
Teddy took a truck ride packed in a box
Headin' for the store and the toy display
Ridin' each mile with a peaceful smile
To get to my party on my birthday
But he wasn't mine yet, no, no, no
He still had a little bit further to go, so
Teddy took a car ride packed in a box
He was bought by my grandma at the store one day
'Ridin' in back so brightly wrapped
To get to my party on my birthday
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday dear me
My Teddy's come home to play
