I play eight notes they sound like this
When I play them I can’t miss
First I play them one by one
Then I sing them just for fun
La la la la la la la la

First I play, then I sing, but counting is my favorite thing
Counting is my favorite thing!

Come let us count the notes together

Oh boy, do I love counting notes.
And do you know a wonderful thing about these notes-
I can count them another way.
I play eight notes going down
I play eight notes all over town
First I play them one by one
Then I sing them just for fun
La la la la la la la la

First I play, then I sing, but counting is my favorite thing
Counting is my favorite thing!

Sesame Street – Eatin’ Cokkie

In the winter, there lots of snow
It very chilly, but don’t you know
It another season, another reason
For eatin’ cookie

He devours some cookies from the box in his hands, then leaves to arrive on a rainy spring scene, as kids run up the hill

In the springtime, the birdies sing
The flowers bloom, and one more thing
It another season, another reason
For eatin’ cookie

More cookies eaten

Me eat them every season
Me eat them day or night
When it come to cookie
Me got healthy appetite

Now he arrives at a summer scene, sun shining, a beach umbrella up, a kid with sunglasses on lies on a towel catching some rays, a girl Eating an ice cream cone, a boy flying a kite

In the summer, it very hot
Me go to the beach, me sweat a lot
It another season, another reason
For eatin’ cookie

He munches more cookies and leaves the scene, arriving on an autumn one, a man raking up some of the fallen leaves

In the fall, the leaves turn brown
The wind it blows, the leaves fall down

Sesame Street – Durango Mountain Caballero

You know I love the trail I’m on
And the friends who ride with me
The country that we’re passing through
Is a paradise to see, a haven for my spirit
The homeland of my dreams
My heart flies through the wilderness
And on an eagle’s wings
And oh I love the waterfall
And the way the river sings
From snow-capped peaks both proud and tall
Through forests deep and green
The highway of the mountains
The lifeblood of the land
I can hear my mother speak to me
And hold my father’s hand

Durango Mountain caballero
Take me for a ride
On the backbone of this mighty land
The Continental Divide
To the place where earth and heaven
Meet the mountains and the sky
In the heart of Colorado, Rocky Mountain High

And oh I love the campfire
And the circle that I’m in
The stories and the laughter
They should never, ever end
Forever in my memory
Forever in my song
On a San Juan mountain trail ride
I’ll carry you along
