Lyrics
Happy, happy days
My daddy’s got a raise
And while I coin my bank
I coin this phrase
Chorus
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My daddy’s working hard, and so
He’s giving baby lots of “dough”
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
I put in one nickel, two nickels, three nickels
Four nickels, six nickels, eight nickels, ten
My piggy bank was very blue before
Because he couldn’t jingle any more
But now into his piggy back
I’m putting lots and lots of “jack”
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
Chorus
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My sister’s got a brand new beau
They like to be alone, and so
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
He gave me one nickel, two nickels, three nickels
Four nickels, six nickels, eight nickels, ten
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
The other night I saw them kiss
He said, “No one must hear of this”
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
Chorus
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My brother Joe took out the car
Without permission from his Pa
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
He broke the wind-shield, the axle, the fender
The starter, the head-lights, the front and rear end
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
I said, “He Joe, the car’s a wreck
If I tell Pa he’ll wring your neck”
My piggy bank is jing-a-ling again
