Gumdrops and lollipops, and lemon drops and jelly tots,
Sunshine through your window
Ice-cream cones, and major tones, yellow phones and doggy bones,
Stardust on your shoulder
Butterflies, smiling eyes, happy sighs,
Apple pies, dewdrops in the morning
Cantaloupe, swing on a rope, never lose hope, peppermint soap,
Sailing down the river
Lets drift along
Singing' our little song
It's about the things that make life sweet
It's the little things
(Ba bada bada ba...)
Open hands, far away lands, marching bands, Japanese fans
Rainbows in the distance
Honey bees, coconut trees, salty seas, gentle breeze
Bluebells in the garden
Summer nights, midnight lights, colourful kites, city lights
Stillness at sunrise
April showers, blooming flowers, candy sours,
Superman's powers
Yellow roses in June
Lets drift along
Singing' our little song
It's about the things that make life sweet
It's the little things
(Ba bada bada ba...)
Jumping beans, bubble machines
Colourful pages in magazines
Cinnamon hearts on Valentines Day Candy dishes made out of clay
Sound of laughter in your dreams Life isn't always what it seems
Little notes left for you Chewing bubble gum in a canoe (ooh's)
Twirly noodles, little poodles, hula-hoops and notepad doodles
Root beer floats in summer A's and b's c's and d's, Sammy Davis and jangling keys Bottle caps on the seashore
Chiming bells, wishing wells, lullabies and cockle shells Buttercups in the green grass Foggy nights, twinkling lights Sugar cane and Turkish delights Star fish on the sand
Lets drift along
Singing' our little song
It's about the things that make life sweet
It's the little things
Ba bada bada ba...
