Potty Training - Barry Louis Polisar

Once a jolly mom and dad camped beside their baby son

Under the lights that burned bright in the loo

And they sang as they watched and waited til the boy was done

Sang, «We'll go a-potty training with you.»

Potty training, Potty training

We’ll go potty training with you

And we’ll sit and we’ll wait

and we’ll hold your hand 'til you are through

We’ll go a-potty training with you

Well up jumped the little boy and ran into the living room

In came his parents, for they knew

They must sit;

they must wait;

they must watch him make his little doo

We’ll go a-potty training with you

Potty training, potty training,

We’ll go potty training with you

And we’ll sit and we’ll wait

and we’ll hold your hand til you are through

We’ll go a-potty training with you,

You can lead a lad to water, but you cannot make him sit

«You'll never make me,"he said as he withdrew

And his ghost may be heard as you pass beside the bathroom now

Who’ll go a-potty training with you
