Careers and Transportation Songs

Row, Row, Row Your Boat
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.

Drive, drive, drive your car
Quickly down the street.
Merrily, merrily, wave your hand
To everyone you meet.

Fly, Fly, Fly your plan
High up in the sky.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
As the clouds go by.


The Wheels of The Bus

The wheels of the bus go round and round,

Round and round, round and round

The wheels of the bus go round and round 

All through the town.


The driver of the bus says
Move On Back! 
Move On back! Move On Back!

The driver of the bus says Move On Back!

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.

The Baker Song
Tune: I’m a Little Teapot

Down around the corner at the bakery shop
There were 4 little cupcakes
with sprinkles on top.

Along came the Baker all alone
He picked up the pink one
and then he ran home.(blue, purple, red)

The People in Your Neighborhood

A song from Sesame Street

Oh, who are the people in your neighborhood

In your neighborhood In your neighborhood.

Oh, who are the people in your neighborhood,

The people that you meet each day.


Oh, the fireman is a person in your neighborhood,

In your neighborhood, in your neighborhood.

The Fireman is a person in your neighborhood,

A person that you meet each day.


Add verses with other people in the neighborhood;
grocer, mail carrier, shoemaker etc.

Construction Worker Song

This is the way we pound our nails,

pound our nails, pound our nails,

This is the way we pound our nails,

so early in the morning.


This is the way we saw our wood,

Saw our wood, saw our wood.

This is the way we saw our wood,

so early in the morning.


This is the way we use a screwdriver,

use a screwdriver, use a screwdriver,

This is the way we use a screwdriver,

so early in the morning.


This is the way we drill a hole,

drill a hole, drill a hole,

This is the way we drill a hole,

so early in the morning.



Addition Verses:

Turn the Screw

Stack the Bricks

Paint the walls

Stir the paint

The Airplane Song

Chorus:

Oh, we are flying in an airplane,

Looking out the window,

Watching the clouds go by.

Flying in an airplane,

Looking out the window,

Up so very high.




Looking out the window,

We can see the wings. 

Down below we see other things.

Like little tiny buildings

And cars so small,

It makes me feel like I'm really tall.



Chorus



Pretending I'm a pilot is a lot of fun,

I think when I grow up

I really might be one.

But for now I'm just enjoying

Being in this plane,

Safe from the snow
and from the rain.



Chorus



Twinkle, Twinkle Traffic Light

Twinkle, twinkle traffic light

Round the corner shining bright.

Red means stop, green means go,

And yellow means go very slow.

Twinkle, twinkle traffic light

Round the corner shining bright.


Transportation
Tune: Wheels on the Bus


The train on the track goes chug, chug, chug,

Chug, chug, chug,
Chug, chug, chug,

The train on the track goes chug, chug, chug

all through the day



Other verses:

The boat on the water goes toot

The car on the road goes beep

The race car on the track goes zoom

The airplane in the sky goes way up high


I’ve Been Working on the Railroad
I’ve been working on the railroad
All the live long day.
I’ve been working on the railroad
Just to pass the time away.

Can’t you hear the whistle blowing,
Rise up so early in the morn.
Can’t you hear the captain shouting,
Dinah, blow your horn!

Careers
Tune: Farmer in the Dell

The doctor makes us well.
The doctor makes us well.
Hey! Ho! What do you know?
The doctor makes us well.

The Farmer grows the corn.
The Farmer grows the corn.
Hey! Ho! What do you know?
The Farmer grows the corn.

The dentist checks our teeth.
The dentist checks our teeth.
Hey! Ho! What do you know?
The dentist checks our teeth.

Community Helpers
Song
 Tune: "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"


Mailmen deliver mail,

Nurses help us when we're sick,

Bankers deposit money,

Farmers raise cows, goats and chicks.

Doctors, teachers and police.

We all need them so.

Each does his important part

Always on the go.

Bus drivers, sales and firemen,

Couldn't do without them too!

Can't wait 'til you grow up,

There’s so many jobs for you!
