Here's another song my Canadian mom used to sing me. Where did she come up with this stuff? lol

Ding ding ding ding ding
Here comes my trolley
My kitty car
To take me to the nutty factory-y-y-y

Just like the nuts that fall
I'm a little cracked
That's all!

Ding ding ding ding ding
Here comes my trolley

Wonder where the song is from or about? I found the words at the Song Specific Database

Ding-Ding

Ding ding ding ding ding
Here comes my wagon, my wagon
I hear the keeper calling me
Ding ding ding ding ding
To take me back to the nutty factory
Like all the little nuts that fall
I'm just a little cracked, that's all
Ding ding ding ding ding
Here comes my wagon, my kiddy car,
My Bus, WHEEEEE!

This is the version we sang in Vancouver, B.C. Canada

Ding, ding, ding, ding,
here comes my wagon, my wagon,
to take me to the funny factory,
Ding ding ding ding
here comes my wagon, my wagon,
can't you hear my keeper calling me?
HEY SISTER!
I'm just like the nuts that fall,
just a little cracked that's all,
ding, ding, ding, ding
here comes my wagon, my wagon.

This keeps reminding me of "The Trolley Song," by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane and sung in 1944 by Judy Garland in "Meet Me in St. Louis," but- it ain't.
Can't find anything new except slight variance in words.

For some reason I also associate the following with this song.
Girls (Boys) have made me what I am
I hope they're satisfied
I haven't loved them all as yet
But heaven knows I've tried.
Ding ding…

Here is the version I learned as a child in Takoma Park, Maryland (mid-1950's):

Ding,ding,ding,ding,ding
Here comes my wagon, my wagon
Hark! I hear my keeper calling me, me.
Ding,ding,ding,ding,ding
Here comes my wagon, my wagon
Take me back to the funny factory.
Like a little nut that falls
I'm a little cracked, that's all
Ding,ding,ding,ding,ding
Here comes my wagon, my kiddie car, my bus. Toot!Toot!

Slight variation

Ding ding ding ding ding
Here comes my wagon my wagon
To take me to the nutty factory
Can't you hear my keeper calling me?

But our version ended

Here comes my wagon, my kiddie car, my twuck! (yes, with the 'w')
