"Happy Hoppy Hopalong"

He'll be coming your way on Easter with a basket full of joy.
Candy rabbits and jelly beans for every girl and boy.
He'll have lots of lovely things for mom, an Easter bonnet, too.
Chocolate candy and Easter eggs and a suit made just for you.
He'll be coming your way on Easter. When you see him say, hello!

He'll say, "Howdy!" and wink an eye but then he has to go.
There's a lot of work that he must do to make your Easter gay.
So don't feel sad when he has to run. He'll see you Easter Day.
(Chorus)
Happy Hoppy Hopalong knows what he must do.
Color all those Easter eggs bright yellow, red, and blue.
Happy Hoppy Hopalong. Toodle loodle loo.
If you're good he'll stop to say, "Happy Easter!" to you.

Don't forget to say your prayers each day, it's what you're 'spose to do.
Do your homework and clean your room and always say what's true.
If you want a happy Easter Day you've got to do what's right.
Pay attention when you're in school and please try not to fight.
(Chorus)
Happy Hoppy Hopalong has a grand, "Hello!"
When you see him sing his song his face is all aglow.
Happy Hoppy Hopalong. Toodle loodle loo.
Don't you fret he'll stop to say, "Happy Easter!" to you.
"Happy Easter!" to you.
