Once there was a woodchuck
Playing in the park
His voice it had a giggle
His eyes they had a spark
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
He says, “I listen
To the stories of the river
I pull my fur coat tighter
When I start to shiver.”
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
Now I and my woodchuck
Ride an orange go-kart
We take turns driving
With this song in our hearts:
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
And sometimes we bask
In the silence of the meadow
Or sit and cry with joy
Watching the hedgerow
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
La-de-da, La-de-dey
La-de-dee, La-de-dum, La-de-doo
