Wake Up
Morning has come and the birds they are singing
It’s time to wake up
The sun it is glowing
The rooster is crowing
It’s time to wake up
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Let me see you smile
Morning has come
take a look out the window
It’s time to wake up
I hear the bugs humming
a new day is coming
It’s time to wake up
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
Let me see you smile
Getting Dressed
I put my left leg in my pant leg
I put my right leg in the other pant leg
I put my arms in my shirt sleeves
And pull my head through the top
I’m getting dressed, dressed, dressed
I wanna look my best
Socks on, shoes on
Comb my hair
If it’s cold give me that sweater
And if it’s hot just leave it there
I’m getting dressed, dressed, dressed
I wanna look my best
I’m getting dressed, dressed, dressed
I wanna look my best
Eat My Breakfast
Look at that bowl
It’s full of cereal
Look at that bowl
It’s full of milk
Look at that bowl
Coming at you with a spoon
I’m gonna eat my breakfast
in the dining room
Brush My Teeth
Brush my teeth
Toothbrush in my hand
The toothpaste tastes good
When I brush my teeth
Brushing my teeth
I’m going round and round
Get the uppers and the lowers
When I brush my teeth
Brush my teeth
Don’t forget the tops
Swirl the water around
When I brush my teeth
I'm A Big Kid Now
Well I’m a big kid now
I’m going to school
All the little kids think
I’m really cool
Cause I’m a big kid now
And I’m going to school
When I get older
I’m gonna ride the bus
I won’t cry
and I won’t fuss
I’ll ride to school
on the yellow school bus
Seeing My Friends
I’m so happy
I’m gonna be seeing my friends
I’m so happy
I’m gonna be seeing my friends
Like some squirrels
Climbing up a tree
I love my friends
And they love me
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
We’re gonna jump up high
And we’ll pretend to fly
Like eagles in the sky
We’ll soar above the town
And we’ll come swooping down
You can see our shadows on the ground
I’m so happy
I’m gonna be seeing my friends
I’m so happy
I’m seeing my friends
Like some fish
Swimming in the sea
I love my friends
And they love me
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
Seeing my friends
I’m so happy
I’m gonna be seeing my friends
I’m so happy
I’m seeing my friends
Like some doggies
On the lone prairie
I love my friends
And they love me
I love my friends
And they love me
I love my friends
And they love me

And then I will wash my hands
I'm An Artist
I can draw or paint
I can work with clay
Paper, popsicle sticks and glue
Make a picture out of string
A fancy crown for a king
Arts and crafts are what I like to do
I’m an artist
Making something new

I like paint and glue
I’m an artist
That is what I do
I’m an artist
Here’s a picture for you
Hands Clean

I Wanna Take A Nap
I’m so tired I wanna take a nap
Lie down and fade away
I’m so tired I wanna take a nap
Hear the music play
All I’d Do Is Play
We’re playing together on the playground
Digging in the sandbox with a cup
We’re running all around
We’re falling on the ground
Just playing a game that we made up
If I had my way
All I’d do is play
If I had my way
I’d play, play, play, play, play
We’re playing together inside now
We came in cause it started to rain
Playing hide and seek
Count to ten and do not peek
Once you find me, we will play again
If I had my way
All I’d do is play
If I had my way
I’d play, play, play, play, play
We’re playing together on the playground
It stopped raining and out came the sun
Hey, we know how to play
We do it every day
Come on let’s see how fast you can run
If I had my way
All I’d do is play
If I had my way
I’d play, play, play, play, play
Belly Button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
I don’t care if it’s an outie or innie
If it’s fat or if it’s skinny

Cover it up right now
And I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
When some pirates get together
They got a box that’s filled with treasure
They put it in a hole and for good measure
They cover it up right now
And I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
Hey, I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
When a doggie’s got a bone
He wants to chew it all alone
If another dog is coming along
He’ll cover it up right now
And I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover that thing up right now
I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now
I don’t care if it’s an outie or innie
If it’s fat or if it’s skinny
Unless you’re magic like a jinny
Please cover that thing up now
I don’t wanna see your belly button
Your belly button, your belly button
No, I don’t wanna see your belly button
So cover it up right now

Please cover it up right now
Hey cover it up right now
I want you to cover it up right now
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
(spoken)
When I play my guitar like this
It’s called fingerpickin’
And this kind of music
Is called a boogie
(sing)
Well you can dig for clams
And you can dig for gold
But you won’t find treasure
In your nose
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ all day long
Here comes my buddy
With a bloody nose
When you fingerpick
That’s the way it goes
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ all day long
Grab yourself a tissue
And away we’ll go
Don’t be stingy
Give your nose a blow
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ Boogie
Fingerpickin’ all day long
Time To Go
Give me a big wave
‘Cause I’m Leavin’

‘Cause I’m leavin’
And I’ll see you soon
My friend
Time to go

I’ll see you tomorrow
Or further down the road
Time to go

It’s time for me to go
Give me a big wave
‘Cause I’m Leavin’
I gotta go
But I’ll be back again
Give me a big wave
‘Cause I’m leavin’
And I’ll see you soon
My friend

Or further down the road

Backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
One is muddy and the other is clean
And they dig faster than the others I’ve seen
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
They are so noisy can̓t they quiet down
You can hear them all over the town
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
One is yellow and the other is red
I’ll dream about them when I go to bed
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
One is plastic and the other is steel
But when I grow up I’ll have two that are real
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes
Backhoes, backhoes
In my back yard there are two backhoes

After My Bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Get the water going
(I’m in my birthday suit)
Don’t make it too hot
(I’m in my birthday suit)
Time to put the bubbles in
You know last time we forgot
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
The boats are in the harbor
(Batten down the hatches)
The winds begin to blow
(Batten down the hatches)
I see a yellow submarine
It’s coming from below
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
So good, so good,
So good, so good, so good
The water’s getting colder
The tide is rolling down
Get my towel ready
The boats have run aground
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
Well I’m gonna smell good
After my bath
So good, so good,
So good, so good, so good
Bedtime Routine
It’s time for the bedroom routine
End of another day
It’s time for the bedroom routine
Time to put my toys away
It’s time for the bedroom routine
I’d rather stay up late instead
But it’s time for the bedroom routine
And I have to go to bed
Bedtime Story
Sitting close together feels all right
We’re gonna read a good book tonight
And before I hit the hay
This is what I’ll say
I asked my dad and mother
To please read me another
Bedtime story
Bedtime story
Won’t you please read me another
Bedtime story
Bedtime story
Bedtime story
Won’t you please read me another
Bedtime story
Cuddle Right Up
Now it’s time to say goodnight
My mommy and daddy hug me tight
Teddy Bear’s on the bed and he stays
I’m under the covers in my PJs
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
And close your eyes
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
Cuddle right up my head’s on the pillow
And close your eyes
Bring Back My Freight Train
I had a dream last night
We were on a train
And we all were singing
When it started to rain
We pulled into the station
And we stepped outside
Got out our umbrellas
When the conductor cried
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
Please Mister Engine Driver
Won’t you bring it back to me
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
Meet you at the station in the morning
Won’t you bring it back to me
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
Bring back my freight train
Bring it back to me
I’ve been up all night crying
Won’t you bring it back to me
