The Shovel in the Lot
Tune of: "Wheels On the Bus"
The shovel on the lot goes
Dig, dig, dig, [make digging motions]
Dig, dig, dig, Dig, dig, dig.
The shovel on the lot goes
Dig, dig, dig,
Building a house.
The saw on the boards goes: saw, saw, saw...
The hammer on the nails goes: pound, pound, pound...
The paintbrush on the walls goes: swish, swish, swish...
Construction Truck Song
Tune of “Mulberry Bush”
This is the way we scoop the dirt, scoop the dirt, scoop the dirt.
This is the way we scoop the dirt with a backhoe.
This is the way we dump the dirt, dump the dirt, dump the dirt.
This is the way we dump the dirt with a dump truck.
This is the way we lift things up… with a crane.
This is the way we mix things up…with a mixer.
I'm a Builder
Tune: “Frere Jacques”
I’m a builder,
I’m a builder
Watch me pound,
Hear my sound.
Tap, a tap, a tap, tap.
Tap, a tap, a tap, tap.
Hear me pound,
Hear me pound!
Jean Warren
Construction Song
(sung to Farmer in the Dell)
The backhoe scoops the dirt,
the backhoe scoops the dirt.
Hey-ho! Look at it go!
The backhoe scoops the dirt.
Additional verses:
The dump truck bumps away...
The cement mixer spins...
The crane moves up and down...
