Song: Drive, Drive, Drive (tune:”Row, Row, Row Your Boat” )
Drive, drive, drive your truck, All around the town
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Up the hills and down
Turn, turn, turn the key, Make the engine roar,
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Let’s go to the store.
Press, press, press the pedal, Give the engine gas,
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Now we’re going fast.
Turn, turn, turn the wheel, That is how we steer
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Make a turn right here.
Push, push, push the brake, Make the car slow down.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Now we are in town.

Flannel: “Where Are Trucks?” (tune: “Thumbkin”)
Where is pick-up truck? Where is pick-up truck?
Here I am. Here I am.
How are you today, sir? Very well, I thank you.
Drive away. Drive away.
(Tow truck, dump truck, moving truck, firetruck)

Song: “The Wheels on the Truck”
The wheels on the truck go
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the truck go round and round
All through the town
The shovel on the truck goes dig dig dig…
The horn on the truck goes beep beep beep…
The plow on the truck goes push push push…
