RIDING MY BIKE
Gray / Lee

as rec by Vera Lynn w Barry Gray & his Orch  
Sep 1955


Riding my bike on the pavement,
The nicest thing I know!
Pushing my pedals round and round
To make my little bike go.

Riding my bike on the pavement,
A game I really like!
It's the greatest of joys
Of all my toys,
My little red three-wheeler bike!

Pedalling, pedalling, up and down,
"Ting-a-ling-ling!" on the bell.
Pedalling, pedalling, round the town,
My mommy says I do it well!

I've lots of games to play with, and lots of things to do,
Like hopping and skipping and climbing, and running and jumping too!
I climb the trees in the garden, and slide along the wall,
But riding my bike is the nicest thing, the nicest thing of all!

I can go faster than daddy,
The houses flashing by;
Everyone waves as I ring the bell,
And how they laugh as I fly!

Riding my bike on the pavement,
A game I really like!
It's the greatest of joys
Of all my toys,
My little red three-wheeler bike!

Pedalling, pedalling, up and down,
"Ting-a-ling-ling!" on the bell.
Pedalling, pedalling, round the town,
My mommy says I do it well!

My little red three-wheeler bike!
