Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon

Well if you want to use my yellow crayon
Go ahead and use my yellow crayon
If you want to write, if you want to draw
Go ahead and use my yellow crayon
I put on my table my yellow crayon
So sister and brother and daddy and mom
Can see on my table my yellow crayon
And you can all use my yellow crayon
I skipped home from school, from school today
And I went to find my yellow crayon
Mommy and daddy had broke it in two
And both was using my yellow crayon
Well if you'd like to use my yellow crayon
Just ask for me and my yellow crayon
I'll let you use my yellow crayon
And I'll go and get you my yellow crayon
Now when you buy me some more crayons
Get me a whole lot of yellow crayons
Everybody uses my yellow crayons
And I'll need plenty of yellow crayons

Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon

My yellow crayon is my yellow crayon
And if you lose my yellow crayon
Then I'll cry for my yellow crayon
Cause I wouldn't have me no yellow crayon
Just ask me to bring you my yellow crayon
And I'll ask you, "my yellow crayon?"
You say to me, "your yellow crayon"
And I'll tell you, "here's my yellow crayon"
You can write letters with my yellow crayon
Pictures and numbers and yellow crayons
It's my yellow yellow crayon
And I want you to use my yellow crayon
Now when I'm at home, my yellow crayon
Or playin' with the kids, my yellow crayon
Swimmin' in the water, my yellow crayon
I'll be glad to bring you my yellow crayon
You have used my yellow crayon
You wore it down little, my yellow crayon
You've wore it so small, my yellow crayon
I can't even hold it, my yellow crayon

Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
Yellow, yellow, yellow, my yellow crayon
