Morning on the Farm
Sheep says, “Baa,” and cow says, “Moo.”
Rooster shouts out, “Cock-a-doodle doo!”
Dog says, “Arf,” and cat says, “Mew.”
Rooster answers, “Cock-a-doodle-doo!”
Horse says, “Neigh,” and owl says, “Hoo.”
Rooster still cries, “Cock-a-doodle-doo!”
Pig says, “Oink,” and dove says, “Coo.”
Rooster, once more, “Cock-a-doodle-doo!”
Rooster has a job to do.
Wake up, farmer! “Cock-a-doodle-doo!”
