My Little Toughie
Bought a hundred soldiers
modeled in scale
Swapped for marbles
Marbles of betrayal
One hundred marbles
That was the deal
For one hundred soldiers
It seemed such a steal
My little toughie
My little toughie
You took them all away
and skated far away
My little toughie
He took them away
A hundred marbles
promised for later that day
I heard him skating
Delivered them to me
But when I count my marbles
There's only twenty three
My little toughie
My little toughie
You took them all away
and skated far away
You should have been careful
Not done that deal
Then you would have been happy
Sitting here still
But I am thankful
For what he did
He taught me everything
Everything I ever need
My little toughie
My little toughie
You took them all away
and skated far away
