We're Going To Be Friends


Fall is here
Hear the yell
Back to school
Ring the bell

Brand new shoes
Walking blues
Climb the fence
Books and pens

I can tell that we are gonna be friends
I can tell that we are gonna be friends

Walk with me
Suzy Lee
Through the park
And by the tree

We will rest
Upon the ground
And look at all
The bugs we found

Safely walk to school without a sound
Safely walk to school without a sound

Here we are
No one else
We walked to school
All by ourselves

There's dirt on
Our uniforms
From chasing all
The ants and worms

We clean up and now it's time to learn
We clean up and now it's time to learn

Numbers letters
Learn to spell
Nouns and books
And show-and-tell

Playtime we will
Throw the ball
Back to class
Through the hall

Teacher marks our height against the wall
Teacher marks our height against the wall

And we don't notice any time pass
We don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Teacher thinks that I sound funny
But she likes the way you sing

Tonight I'll dream
While I'm in bed
When silly thoughts
Go through my head

About the bugs
And alphabet
And when I wake
Tommorow I'll bet

That you and I will walk together again
I can tell that we are gonna be friends
Yes, I can tell that we are gonna be friends
