Aurora Hayes - Billy’s Missing Tooth Lyrics

Billy Joe had a smile as wide as the plains
But one fateful night he felt a sudden pain
A crunch and a pop then a gasp and a shout
Billy's front tooth had just fallen out
Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go?
A smile so bright now a gap in the glow
Searching high searching low
Billy's front tooth where did it go?
He looked in the kitchen checked by the sink
Even called the dentist asking what to think
His friends joined the search with flashlights and glee
But that darn tooth was nowhere to be
Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go?
A smile so bright now a gap in the glow
Searching high searching low
Billy's front tooth where did it go?
In the barn and the yard under the moon's soft light
They scoured the town all through the night
In the hay and the straw the pigs gave a snort
But that missing tooth stayed out of the report
Come sunrise Billy Joe had an idea so grand
He'd craft a new tooth with his own two hands
From a piece of wood he whittled with care
A brand-new tooth and he placed it there
Oh Billy Joe found your tooth you know
Not the original but it made quite the show
Now he grins proud and wide
With a wooden tooth by his side
So if you see Billy Joe with that tooth so fine
Just remember the night of his grand design
A silly little tale with a serious twist
Billy Joe's smile is one you won't miss
In the barn and the yard under the moon's soft light
They scoured the town all through the night
In the hay and the straw the pigs gave a snort
But that missing tooth stayed out of the report
Come sunrise Billy Joe had an idea so grand
He'd craft a new tooth with his own two hands
From a piece of wood he whittled with care
A brand-new tooth and he placed it there
A brand-new tooth stayed out of the report
But that missing tooth stayed out of the report
Oh Billy Joe where'd your tooth go?
No Not the original
