Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew baby!

Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew baby!

First you pop,
Then you stop,
The gum gets big and round.
Blow your troubles
Away like bubbles,
When you hear that funny little sound!

Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum.

Listen sis, you're havin' fun,
Chewin' on your bubble gum.
Give us some and we shall see
Just what girls are, obviously!

Boys you're right, I'm havin' fun,
Chewin' on my bubble gum.
Bubble gum, it makes me sing;
Here, chew some to make you swing!

First you pop,
Then you stop,
The gum gets big and round.
Blow your troubles
Away like bubbles,
When you hear that funny little sound!

Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum,
Chew chew chew chew your bubble gum.
