"Chewing Gum" lyrics

"Chewing Gum"

My mother gave me a quarter to tip the porter
I did not tip the porter I bought some chewing gum

Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum

My mother gave me a dime to buy a lime
I did not buy a lime, I bought some chewing gum

Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum

My mother gave me a nickel to buy a pickle
I did not buy a pickle, I bought some chewing gum

Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la-la-la chewing gum
Chew-la-la chewing gum

My mother gave me a penny to buy some chewing gum
I did not buy some chewing gum, I'm sick of chewing gum!
