Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
I'm the little child
who cuddles and loves you, aren't I?
If you run away, I will wither in sorrow!
You are such a naughty, playful pup!
Look at all your prancing and running!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
Lallal laala lal lalla laala
Lallal laala lal laala laala laalaa...
I have never seen my mother,
but the moment I saw you, love blossomed in my heart!
Oh ho ho, with me by your side and you by mine,
could this love we share ever fade away?
Just like a mother, you shower me with affection,
and without any words, you wag your tail!
Without ever parting for even a day,
we will live together!
We will live together!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
Hey Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
A golden swing and a bed of soft flowers,
I will buy and set them up just for you!
Oh ho ho, just like a mother, resting you on my shoulder,
I will hold you close and sing a lullaby!
Morning and evening, I will feed you fresh cow's milk,
I will take you in a car and show you the whole town!
You are such a naughty, playful pup!
Look at all your prancing and running!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
Tommy, come, come, come, come!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
I'm the little child
who cuddles and loves you, aren't I?
If you run away, I will wither in sorrow!
You are such a naughty, playful pup!
Look at all your prancing and running!
Tommy, come, come, come, come... haha!
I love you, jam, jam, jam, jam!
Hey Tommy, come, come, come, come... hahaha!
