I'm trying to find a poem that I learned in primary school, 3rd or 4th class, 35 years ago. It starts something like this:

"Johnny had a birthday party without any girls
He got seven guns from seven boys
And a Dick Tracy detective police car from me"

In the poem they play with the car, which is a wind up one, and they eventually lose the key for it. The next year Johnny gets another car only this time the key is fixed in it so that it can't fall out.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?
