Lyrics
(African American Spiritual)
1. Mister Rabbit, Mister Rabbit, your coat’s mighty gray.
Yes, indeed, it’s made that way.
Refrain
Every little soul must shine, shine, shine,
Every little soul must shine, shine, shine.
2. Mister Rabbit, Mister Rabbit, your ears are mighty long.
Yes, indeed, they’re put on wrong. Refrain
3. Mister Rabbit, Mister Rabbit, your tail’s mighty white.
Yes, indeed, and I’m getting out of sight. Refrain
