Billy’s Missing Tooth

Billy Joe had a smile as wide as the plains But one fateful night he felt a sudden pain A crunch and a pop then a gasp and a shout Billy's front tooth had just fallen out Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go? A smile so bright now a gap in the glow Searching high searching low Billy's front tooth where did it go? He looked in the kitchen checked by the sink Even called the dentist asking what to think His friends joined the search with flashlights and glee But that darn tooth was nowhere to be Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go? A smile so bright now a gap in the glow Searching high searching low Billy's front tooth where did it go? In the barn and the yard under the moon's soft light They scoured the town all through the night In the hay and the straw the pigs gave a snort But that missing tooth stayed out of the report Come sunrise Billy Joe had an idea so grand He'd craft a new tooth with his own two hands From a piece of wood he whittled with care A brand-new tooth and he placed it there Oh Billy Joe found your tooth you know Not the original but it made quite the show Now he grins proud and wide With a wooden tooth by his side So if you see Billy Joe with that tooth so fine Just remember the night of his grand design A silly little tale with a serious twist Billy Joe's smile is one you won't miss In the barn and the yard under the moon's soft light They scoured the town all through the night In the hay and the straw the pigs gave a snort But that missing tooth stayed out of the report Come sunrise Billy Joe had an idea so grand He'd craft a new tooth with his own two hands From a piece of wood he whittled with care A brand-new tooth and he placed it there A brand-new tooth stayed out of the report But that missing tooth stayed out of the report Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go? No Not the original
