Neddy and the Wagon
I'm Neddy the draft horse
And of course,
I have a job to do, CHOROUS
I chauffeur people
Round Windsor Town,
To take in the view.
Neddy the horse goes
Clip, clip, clop,- clip, clip, clop,
- Clip, clip, clop,
Neddy the horse goes
Clip, clip, clop,
Can you hear the sound?
The wheels of the wagon go
Whir, whir, whir,- whir, whir, whir,
- Whir, whir, whir,
The wheels of the wagon go
Whir, whir, whir,
Can you hear the sound?
Chorous
The people on the wagon go
Yak, yak, yak,- yak, yak, yak,
- Yak, yak, yak,
The people on the wagon go
Yak, yak, yak,
Can you hear the sound
The driver on the wagon goes
"Whoa, whoa, whoa,- whoa, whoa, whoa,
-Whoa, whoa, whoa,"
The driver of the wagon goes
"Whoa, whoa, whoa,"
Can you hear the sound?
Chorous
Neddy the horse goes
Crunch, crunch, munch,- crunch, crunch,munch,
-Crunch, crunch, munch,
Neddy the horse goes
Crunch, crunch, munch,
Can you hear the sound
Neddy the horse goes
Deep, deep, sleep, - deep, deep, sleep,
-Deep, deep, sleep,
Neddy the horse goes,
Deep, deep, sleep.
Can you hear the sound?
