 Mother, may we paint the eggs, in shades of pink and blue To hide on Easter morning, a fun thing to do We'll take our Easter baskets, and hunt them for a prize A big chocolate Easter bunny, a very sweet surprise Mother, may we paint the eggs, in green and yellow-gold So-- that we may have them, for our Easter egg roll We'll take a wooden spoon, and roll them down a hill To be the first to cross the line, oh what a fun thrill Mother, may we paint the eggs, and color them in Spring And wait and see on Easter morn, what the Easter bunny brings I hope he brings a box of peeps--sticky, fluffy, yellow Sprinkled in a candied sugar, over marshmallow I hope I find some jelly beans, what a delight My favorites are the black ones, the red, and the white Mother, may we paint some eggs, for all to come and play And we will have a big egg hunt, come Easter day.
