And ten little toes

Ten little toes
Two twinkling eyes
One tiny nose
A great big yawn

Yes you are so special
A blessing from God
A blessing a blessing
You are a blessing
From God
My precious little baby
You are a blessing
From God
You’re a blessing
A blessing
You are a blessing
From God
My precious little baby
You are a blessing
From God
You are so special
You’re a blessing
From God
