Verse

When I grow up maybe I'll be a farmer.
grow all kinds of food to eat
like shiny apples red or green
or fields of corn for dinnertime
I'll drive my tractor in the sun
while the chickens go "bock, bock, bock"
and the cows go "moo, moo, moo"
and thank you farmer.


Chorus


Verse

When I grow up maybe I'll be a carpenter,
and build a big, long house
for people and their families
and I'll build it out of wood and bricks
with a porch where people can sit
and the hammers go "knock, knock, knock"
and the saws go "chop, chop, chop"
and thank you carpenter.


Bridge


Verse

When I grow up maybe I'll be a singer in a band
and I'll drive all across the land
with my friends all in the van
and I'll sing into a microphone
but when it's over, I'll come home
while the people go "clap, clap, clap"
and the drummer goes "tap, tap, tap"
and thank you singer.
