Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Easter's on its way.

Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy
A basketful of Easter joy,
Things to make your Easter
Bright and gay.

He's got jelly beans for Tommy,
Colored eggs for sister Sue.
There's an orchid for your mommy,
And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Happy Easter Day!"
