《I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas》歌词

[00:00:00] I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas - Gayla Peevey

[00:00:08] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:00:13] Only a hippopotamus will do

[00:00:17] Don't want a dog

[00:00:19] No inky dinker Toy

[00:00:21] I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

[00:00:25] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:00:30] I don't think Santa Claus will mind do you

[00:00:34] He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue

[00:00:38] Just bring him through the front door

[00:00:40] That's the easy thing to do

[00:00:42] I can see me now on Christmas morning

[00:00:47] Creeping down the stairs

[00:00:50] Oh what joy and what surprise

[00:00:53] When I open up my eyes

[00:00:55] To see a hippo hero standing there

[00:00:59] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:01:03] Only a hippopotamus will do

[00:01:08] No crocodiles no rhinoceroses

[00:01:12] I only like hippopotamuses

[00:01:16] And hippopotamuses like me too

[00:01:29] Mom says the hippo would eat me up

[00:01:32] But then

[00:01:33] Teacher says a hippo is a vegeterian

[00:01:45] There's lots of room for

[00:01:46] Him in our two-car garage

[00:01:50] I'd feed him there and wash him there

[00:01:52] And give him his massage

[00:01:53] I can see me now on Christmas morning

[00:01:58] Creeping down the stairs

[00:02:02] Oh what joy and what surprise

[00:02:04] When I open up my eyes

[00:02:06] To see a hippo hero standing there

[00:02:11] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:02:15] Only a hippopotamus will do

[00:02:19] No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses

[00:02:23] I only like hippopotamuseses

[00:02:28] And hippopotamuses like me too
