Johnny B. Three























Way up in Appalachia, close to Tennessee
We planned a birthday party for a boy turning three.
With Daniel, Sheila, Granddabs, even 'Uncle' Kate,
Everything was set up for the perfect fete.
Presents, cake, and ice cream, all ready to go.
Let's get the party started, let's put on a show.

Johnny loved his gifts, there was a Spiderman theme.
Everything he opened made him smile and beam.
He shared his new toys with his big sister Grace.
Delighted with the loot, you should have seen her face.
It didn't long, though, for Grace to break down,
When asked for them back, she threw the toys on the ground.

His mother said she loved him, her sweet little boy
But before the party ended, there was one more toy.
Mommy went and wheeled out the final surprise
She could tell it was a hit by the size of his eyes.
"A 'motorcycle' bike! Cool! All for me"
"You bet, you sweet thang, just for turning three!"

Go go
