Who  stole that little girl's ball
 I saw  her this morning
Happy  as a kite
 
 and now she's crying
Who  stole that little girl's ball
 The shade  of red I never saw
Who  'round here would do a thing like  that?
 You stole that little girl's ball
 I saw you this morning
 Bluer than a boy should be
 and now you are laughing
 You stole that little girls ball
 The shade of red I never saw
 Never thought you'd do a thing like that
Oooh.
Oooh.
Oooh.
Oooh.
 Who tied that little boy's hands behind his back?
 I saw him this afternoon
 having much more fun than that
 Who tied that little boy's hands?
 Can't walk his dog
 Can't feed his pets now
 Who 'round here would do a thing like that?
 I tied that little boy's hands behind his back
 I saw him this afternoon
 playing with that ball he had
 I tied that little boys hands
 He needed more than angry words
 I tied that little boy's hands
 and now he's got just what he deserves
 Who cut my guitar strings?
