Lyrics Goin' to the Zoo - Tom Paxton

Goin' to the Zoo

Daddy’s taking us to the zoo tomorrow,
Zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow;
Daddy’s taking us to the zoo tomorrow,
We can stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
See the elephant with the long trunk swingin',
Great big ears and long trunk swingin',
Snuffin' up peanuts with the long trunk swingin';
We can stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
See all the monkeys scritch scritch scratchin',
Jumpin' all around and scritch scritch scratchin',
Hangin' by their long tails scritch scritch scratchin';
We can stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
Big black bear, all a huff huff a-puffin';
Coat’s too heavy, he’s huff huff a-puffin',
Don’t get too near the huff huff a-puffin',
Or you won’t stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
Seals in the pool all honk honk honkin',
Catchin' fish and honk honk honkin',
Little seals honk honk honkin';
We can stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
We stayed all day and we’re gettin' sleepy,
Sittin' in the car gettin' sleep sleep sleepy,
Home already and we’re sleep sleep sleepy,
We have stayed all day.
We’ve been to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
So have you, you, you.
You came too, too, too,
We’re been to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
Momma’s taking us to the zoo tomorrow,
Zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow;
Momma’s taking us to the zoo tomorrow,
We can stay all day.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too.
We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo.
