Peter, Paul And Mary - The Marvelous Toy Lyrics

This was my first ever album. A gift from my brother in 1969 when I was 5yrs old. I wore it out, played it constantly. My next 2 albums were Rubber Soul and Crosby Stills & Nash, also from my brother who was sick of hearing this over and over. I wore them out too. Thanks Bro.

I have always loved this song. It's one of those songs played at Christmas even though it's not a Christmas song. The toy makes me think of one I remember as a kid. Anyone remember Odd Ogg?

My parents raised me on this album.💜💙 I'm going to play it for my children too!

It's a top, Einstein! Lol

Haha the 3 Dumbos can't figure it

the child in me will always love this song, my fav P P &M tune

Pure Joy! . . .

I was raised on this record, if anyone still knows what a record is!

Don't worry, I'm on the young end of being a millenial (or at least I think that's what I'm classified as) and trust me, we all know what records are and so do people even younger than us (I mean I guess I can't speak for every single person my age but I would reasonably say "almost everyone.") Most of us probably haven't used a record (although I have, if that makes you feel any better), but we do know what they are! 😊

So glad to know I can listen to this awesome song whenever I want to! Thanks for sharing this huge smile!

If only they knew what it was, they could have sold it on Shark Tank.

Credit goes out to Tom Paxton for a great song

gustavvson Love Tom Paxton

lol!! My bro sings this every Christmas😃😃

this song's singer is good.I want to see everyday.

This is mine and daddy's favorite song it put tears on our eyes

Loved it

I love it too!!!!!!

I was given this album for Christmas the year it came out. I was already a huge fan of PP&M and this song was probably my favorite one from the album. I learned to play the guitar, and played and sang it to my much younger brother at bedtime. Years later I became a daycare teacher and taught many children this song

Nostalgia... Oh the nostalgia.

For Almost 50 year these three voices weaved a great versatile songbook. they were one of a kind

When our sons were little we played this song to them and sang along. Now that our oldest son will be a father for the first time, we are giving him this song to sing to his child.

I lost this song for five decades. I remembered it from when I was a child and never heard or saw it again until today.

The Chad Mitchell Trio also does a great version.

I love this song! But now I'm thinking that Micah Johnson didn't know just what it was, and he never will. He had a big surprise. Which is fine. But this song may never seem quite the same to me now.

Wow! I was a small child when I heard this song and have been trying to find out what the name of it was ever since. I only remembered a couple of lines of it. I have asked people, googled it, and had never found it. Then I put in what little I remembered of it into YouTube and you found it instantly for me! This made my 2015 Christmas! Thanks YouTube!

Never give up looking for those old songs. Sometimes you find them long after you figure you never will. :-)

Have always loved this song; thanks for sharing it....
