A dolly head, a dolly head
When I was a little girl my dad sang to me
A dolly head, a dolly head
Soon it'll be time for her bed
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly head, a dolly head
A dolly head, a dolly head
When I was four I called my brothers a dolly head
I thought it was a safe word as I wasn't allowed to swear
An empty head is what I meant
My brothers laughed as my name calling sounded quite silly.
I freaked out, I thought I was going to get in trouble
But, but instead the name stuck on me
It became the fun song my dad would sing, originally to tease
That name Dolly head became stuck on me
A dolly head, a dolly head
Soon it'll be time for her bed
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly head, it's time for your bed
A dolly head.
A dolly, dolly, dolly head
A dolly, dolly, dolly head
Now I'm all grown up
My daddy's past away
But every now and then I would remember how his eyes would glisten
His smile would be wide as he'ld sing and whistle the dolly head song to me
A dolly head, a dolly head
Soon it'll be time for her bed
A dolly, dolly dolly head
Now dolly head, it's time for your bed
A dolly head
A dolly, dolly, dolly head
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly dolly dolly head
A dolly dolly dolly head
