Here comes
PETER COTTONTAIL

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity, Easter's on its way

Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy
A basketful of Easter joy
Things to make your Easter Bright and gay

He's got jelly beans for Tommy
Colored eggs for sister Sue
There's an orchid for your mommy
And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity Happy Easter Day

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Look at him hop and listen to him say,
"Try to do the things you should"
Maybe if you're extra good
He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way

You'll wake up on Easter morning
And you'll know that he was there
When you find those choc'late bunnies
That he's hiding ev’rywhere, Oh!

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity Happy Easter Day
