Lyrics
(Folk song)
1. My father is a garbage man, a garbage man, a garbage man,
My father is a garbage man,
And it goes something like this:
“PEE-U!” (spoken with an exaggerated singing voice)
2. My mother is a baker…and it goes something like this: PEE-U!, YUM! YUM! (rub tummy)
3. My brother is a cowboy…PEE-U! YUM! YUM! YEEE HAW! (lasso air)
4. My sister is a movie star…PEE-U! YUM! YUM! YEEE HAW! WHOOP-DEE-DOO! (fix hair)
5. My grandpa is a train engineer…PEE-U! YUM! YUM! YEEE HAW! WHOOP-DEE-DOO! TOOT! TOOT! (chug motion)
6. My grandma is a tickler…PEE-U! YUM! YUM! YEEE HAW! WHOOP-DEE-DOO! TOOT! TOOT! TICKLE TICKLE! (tickle neighbor)
