1
I must sit down for a minute, I'm ready to fall in a heap
2
Willie's been fed and I've tucked him in bed, thank goodness the darling's asleep
3
He's a wonderful boy and a joy and a boon
4
Bang went the bridge lamp, down went the table, crash went the china tray
5
But he said "I couldn't help it, my rocking horse ran away!"
6
Rip rip went the curtain, wham went the window, crunch went the new buffet
7
And I heard him tell his daddy "My rocking horse ran away"
8
Somehow Indians got into our front room
9
Our cowboy grabbed for his gun and went boom, boom, boom, boom, boom
10
Slam went the screen door, smash went the mirror, looks like I'll soon be gray
11
But he smiles and what's the difference and maybe some Mother's Day
12
I'll remember when his rocking horse ran away
13
Got up early this morning, wore a flimsy negligee
14
Had to hurry to fix the breakfast and get daddy on his way
15
Figured I could get the paper, so the neighbors wouldn't see
16
So I sneaked out on the porch, very, very quietly
17
Wham went the dish pan, then came a holler, up went the neighbor's shade
18
It was Mother's little darling, out on a commando raid
19
Came home late from a picture. I was tired, my shoes were tight
20
Took off my stockings, dropped my girdle
21
Got undressed and pulled the light. boy!
22
Slipped into my night gown, then tiptoed across the floor
23
Better have a look at Junior, so I peeked into his door
24
Clang, clang, clang went a cowbell, whee went a whistle, I nearly had a stroke
25
It was mother's precious baby, just havin' his little joke
26
Always just when I'm breathin' a peaceful sigh
27
There's G-Men, coppers and robbers and hi-yo silver!
28
Bam went the book case, boot went the fruit bowl, boom went the glass bouquet
29
But he smiles and what's the difference and maybe some mother's day
30
I'll remember when, bang went the lamp, down went the table
31
Crash went the tray, rip rip went the curtain, wham went a window
32
Clang went a bell, whee went a whistle, bam went a pan, slam went a door
33
On that eventful day, when his rocking horse ran away
