The wheels on the bus
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round, round and round,
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town!
The wipers on the bus go back and forth,
Back and forth, back and forth,
The wipers on the bus go back and forth,
All through the town!
The doors on the bus go in and out,
In and out, in and out,
The doors on the bus go in and out,
All through the town!
The people on the bus go up and down,
Up and down, up and down,
The people on the bus go up and down,
All through the town!
