Songs we sang today:

"The Giant Carrot"

The carrot in my garden, I planted weeks ago,
Just keeps getting bigger, you ought to see it grow.
It came up to my knees, and then up to my hips,
Giant carrot, giant carrot, you're taller than my trees!

I'm going to pull you out, pull you out!
A little seed that grew so big, who knew that!
We'll shake it to the left
Shake it to the right
Giant carrot, giant carrot, please come out! (chorus)

Along came the miss' to help her farmer man
She held on tight with all her might, she pulled so hard so hard...
(chorus)

Along came little Abby to pull the carrot out
She held on to the rest of them, she pulled so hard so hard...
(chorus)

Along came the dog to pull the carrot out
He held on to the rest of them, he pulled so hard so hard...
(chorus)

Along came the cat to pull the carrot out
She held on to the rest of them, she pulled so hard so hard...
(chorus)

Along came the mouse to pull the carrot out
He held on tight with all his might,
He pulled to hard so hard.

(chorus)
