Could you help us (help me)
There was a little boy (my baby)
Did you see him (tell me you saw him)
He had a red balloon (it’s his birthday)
About five (turning six)
Dark eyes and raven hair (just like his mummy)
He was last seen in this area (where is he)
He was wearing a blue cap (it was his Pappy’s)
Maybe you saw him (tell me you saw him)
He had a red balloon (it’s his birthday)
Please?
