Rootie the Rooster

Intro: Oh no! I overslept again. (Spoken)

Verse 1: Rootie the Rooster isn’t feeling too good…
and isn’t crowing early morning like he should.
He chooses not to greet the morning sun
with his splendid cock-a-doodle-doin’.

Chorus: Now, Rootie the Rooster’s not having cock-a-doodle-doin’ fun.
Rootie isn’t rootin’ and a tootin' for us to rise.
He won’t blow his horn for anyone.
So, we’re all snoozin’ right through sunrise.

Verse 2: My friends and I ask Rootie what’s going on.
He says, "No one appreciates my horn blowin’."
Why Rootie we love you and miss your horn duty.
Right away, he crows a real beauty. (Rootie crows)

Chorus: Now, Rootie the Rooster is having cock-a-doodle-doin’ fun.
Rootie is rootin’ and a tootin' for us to rise.
He blows his horn for everyone.
All the kids are rootin’ for Rootie at sunrise.

End: A little love and thanks goes a long, long way.
Now, Rootie’s struttin’ his stuff all day (Rootie crows)…all day. (Rootie crows)

Chorus: Now Rootie the Rooster is having cock-a-doodle-doin’ fun.
Rootie is rootin’ and a tootin' for us to rise.
He blows his horn for everyone.
All the kids are rootin’ for Rootie at sunrise. (Kids cheer)

Thanks Rootie for your horn blowin’. (Spoken) (Rootie crows and kids cheer)
