To see my little black egg with the little white specks
Chorus

F#m E
And now it's mine, all mine

Rhino "Nuggets" comp repeats intro riff twice]

Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
I'll bet what they want to see
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks

To see my little black egg with the little white specks

The little black egg... repeat to fade
