Lyrics
CHORUS: Ball of yarn, ball of yarn, That’s when I spun her little ball of yarn. Ball of yarn, ball of yarn, That’s when I spun her little ball of yarn.
It was in the month of June, when the flowers are in bloom, I found her sitting out behind the barn. As she shoveled up the gobs, I gently pinched her knobs, And asked to spin her little ball of yarn.
She undressed before my sight, we went at it all the night, Her little body shaking stem to stern. And the blackbird and the robin, saw her little butt a’bobbin, As I spun her little ball of yarn.
It was two months after that, in the office where I sat, Never dreaming she had done me any harm. And a doctor dressed in white, said, “Man, your pecker is a sight, It’s been tangled in a little ball of yarn.”
It was nine months to the day, in the bathtub where I lay, I felt a heavy hand upon my arm. And a policeman with a hose, said, “Get up and get your clothes, You’re the father of a little ball of yarn.”
In my prison cell I sit, with my fingers full of shit, The shadow of my pecker on the wall. And the ladies as they pass, stick hatpins in my ass, And little mice play hopscotch with my little ball of yarn.
