Tanya Tucker - The Teddy Bear Song Lyrics
I wish I had button eyes and red felt nose
Shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes
Sittin' on the shelf in the local department store
With no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for
Not livin' nor lovin' or goin' nowhere
I wish I was a Teddy Bear
And I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you
I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind
Then your mem'ry wouldn't come around hurtin' all the time
I'd have a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye
And I never would've ever had to learn how to cry
I wish I was a Teddy Bear
I wish I was a Teddy Bear
And I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you
I wish I had a string you'd pull to make me say
Hi, I'm Teddy ain't it a lovely day
Then I'd know every time I spoke the words were right
And no one would know the mess I made in my life
I wish I was a Teddy Bear
Not livin' nor lovin' or goin' nowhere
I wish I was a Teddy Bear
And I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you
And I'm wishin' I hadn't fallen in love with you

You know how music evokes strong emotions? I'm 49 going on dead and hadn't head this song since I was a kid singing it with my dad. Heard it on the radio today and just broke out bawling. Dammit.

Me and my grandma would watch Tanya tucker when I was 4. Makes me cry. Great mems

Billy this song reminds me of you and I really do wish I hadn't fall in love with you.
Sounds sad !! 😢
i love my teddy beare kisses brotherers love u forverers
This song was first released by Barbara Fairchild in December of 1972 and became her only #1 song, in March of 1973. Many have covered the song, but Fairchild's version will always be my favorite!
Ya she screwed it up in 72 already , doesn't seem thaat long
I like this version better
I think that Tanya &Cher& OLIVIA NEWTON John are the three greatest singers in the past 5 decades and their voices are angelic I love all three
Not Cher ugh
Songwriter looking for Singer.

My mom would sing this song when i couldnt sleep at night
The description says it's "rare." How can it be rare if probably hundreds of thousands or quite likely millions of people bought this album?
This is Patricia landlord favert song
This was Patricia landlord fravret song
Amazing.
My Grandpa used to play guitar and sing this song to all of "us" grandkids. Great memories!
my mom used to sing this on road trips....when my older sister would join in with her.
Love this. My momma sang/sings this all the time, and always in the car on trips, and all other Tanya Tucker music, and I was/am the oldest sister that always sings with her.
You rock Susan :D
I grew up loving Tanya Tucker songs!
Pitter Patter Daycare : I did as well Pitter. I enjoy "Old School" Country Music.
I also remember this song as a little girl
I also remember this song as a little girl
I totally agree with Miss Kimberly. This is a childhood favorite of mine as well.
I LOVE THIS SONG, SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL, THANKS FOR HAVING IT
1st played this in the early 90s on CD,!
"Whatever happened to Tanya's warble in her voice?"
Cute Sexy
When I was 15 I worked in a bar slinging beer at Tarber Alberta Canada There was a band that played this song every time I was working as my name is Teddy an i always loved it Took me a long time to find it agian .THANK YOU
WISH MY OLD FRIENDS FROM THE 1970"S WOULD HERE THIS IT BRINGS BACK SUCH GOOD MEMORIES
Are you able to post a link? I have searched and searched and yes, that is very strange!!!
Okey that's strange becuase I can find them o.O
Thank you, but they are not there any more. I just tried again using your exact search! No luck! I have been searching for a while....
Those songs are from her "TNT" album and they are already on youtube, just search on "Tanya Tucker The river and the wind" and "Tanya Tucker I'm the singer you're the song" :-)
Jonathan
Do you have a song by Tanya Tucker called The River and The Wind?
Also one more I can't find that starts out with , "I'm the singer, you're the song, you write the words I sing along. We gonna make it to the top, baby we won't stop, I know we'll show en all someday. So baby come and love me now, if you don't know ....." you get the idea if you know these songs. I know the words to both these songs but I'm not sure of the titles and want to track down the music. Can you help?? Nancy B.
Great Cover!
i wish i could sing like that but i suck really badly :C
as a kid my friends and i would sit hourslisten to this,,,,RUSTY
Great song and a great singer too.
@heico7777 The rare ones are always the BEST!!! I love it!!! Tanya rocks and she is so sexy and awesome voice. Who can compare or copy her voice? NO ONE!!!!
BRINGS BACK MEMORIES TEEN YEARS MY FRIEND AND WOULD SIT FOR HOURS LISTNING TO HER SONGS .
Thank you for this wonderful video!!
Tanya Tucker is a beautiful woman and a great singer, too!
Greetings from a great Tanya Tucker fan from Berlin, Germany!
Notice that she has the music compliment her voice, not overpower it like the "singers" today so you don't realize how bad they sing.
Once a coke whore...
@juslookin3 You're an idiot
tanya looks like shit these days. i guess all that cock she sucked in her life has given her face stretch marks!
@superfrankypanky why do you show your stupidity and ignorance? You don't know what she's done...you weren't there you moron
Mom's favorite song...I can see her now dancing around the house laughing at us kids....Mom you're the greatest!
I want her dress.
If Johnny Cash had the voice of God; then Tanya Tucker has the voice of Mrs. God. I absolutely love her, always have and always will.
Good old day with lots of memories ,
@RMSHOOK2001 Brings me back to the 70's KLAC out in LA I miss thoses days!!! great memories..
jesus i haven't heard this song in almost 40 years since it came out and i was just a kid then. great to hear it again after all this time. nice upload!
@waldeckschool123 Great song. I just love Tanya and always sing her songs at talent shows.
Thanks for uploading
i love this song
great song one of the best
@19Cathy59 it is the one and only tanya tucker.
very beautiful song
@tygr49 well I've never heard Tanya sing it, I've only heard Barbara sing it...I am a fan of both Lovely Counrty Ladies...But I do stand corrected as since my post I've seen Tanya sing it live on youtube.
@19Cathy59 Barbara Fairchild wrote the song, I think, but this is actually a young Tanya Tucker singing. Believe it or not, I have the LP.
This is not Tanya Tucker singing...It Is Barbara Fairchild.
I LOVE YOU TANYA
This song is so beautiful
this song reminds me of my dad & my mum so many years ago. im still a teddy bear that will never grow up
