Hey now there, my friends they go
Little jamie, Jack and stripey joe
Off to fight the big bad mood
Guarded by a magic tune

Ring a ding a ding ding
Tip tap toy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy
Ring a ding a ding ding
You're my joy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy

Stripey joe, the zebra horse
Leadin' everyone the way he knows
Leading with his head up high
He's a friend then which you can rely

Ring a ding a ding ding
Tip tap toy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy
Ring a ding a ding ding
You're my joy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy

Carry on, carry on
Until the break of dawn
Carry on, sweet angel
Carry on

Ring a ding a ding ding
Tip tap toy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy
Ring a ding a ding ding
You're my joy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy

Little jamie knows a remedy
Clear for the a, b, c, d, eye too see
Should I grown up, show up, you're a toy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy

Ring a ding a ding ding
Tip tap toy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy
Ring a ding a ding ding
You're my joy
Long lost song of a shoeshine boy

And we'll be friends until I die
And we will never say goodbye
