We have heard the wise men say,
each working day
should have an hour of play,
so if you'll come with me
I'll show the way
where all the playthings are
it's not so very far.

Come along to Toy Town
Let me take you there,
It's a wondrous joy town,
Free from ev'ry care,
Come join the curly heads
that glisten with gold,
There's room for silver threads
no matter how old.
When you see the play things
you will dance and sing,
come and hear them say things
when you pull the string.
'Twill take you back
to the shack
where you played upon the floor
Come to toy town
and be a kiddy once more.

Come along to Toy Town
Let me take you there,
It's a wondrous joy town,
Free from ev'ry care,
Come join the curly heads
that glisten with gold,
There's room for silver threads
no matter how old.
When you see the play things
you will dance and sing,
come and hear them say things
when you pull the string.
'Twill take you back
to the shack
where you played upon the floor
Come to toy town
and be a kiddy once more.

If your hair is tinged with grey
a toy each day
will keep the grey away,
We really never grow too old to play
The land of harmless toys
makes old folks
girls and boys.

Come along to Toy Town
Let me take you there,
It's a wondrous joy town,
Free from ev'ry care,
Come join the curly heads
that glisten with gold,
There's room for silver threads
no matter how old.
When you see the play things
you will dance and sing,
come and hear them say things
when you pull the string.
'Twill take you back
to the shack
where you played upon the floor
Come to toy town
and be a kiddy once more.

where you played upon the floor
Come to toy town
and be a kiddy once more.
