lyrics

Play All Day
Timmy Abell and Steven Heller

Up in the morning, jump out of bed
Dive on in to a brand new day
Get to the kitchen fast as I can
Pancakes flippin' in the fryin' pan
Sun's a shinin', morning's smilin'
Time to play and play all day
Kiss goodbye 'n out the door
Grab a great big breath of a brand new morn

Sing me the story of your life
See the colors, hear the harmony
Feel the rhythm as you dance and play
Up in the morning and play all day

Wet my shoes in the morning dew
Running to the park, got lots to do
Find my friends and jump on in
Everybody's playing in the park again
Slip on the slide
Fly on the swing
Climb on the monkeybars
See saw, see saw, see saw sing

Chorus

Sun's so hot, race down to the creek
Pull off our shoes 'n cool our feet
Build a dam and jump on in
Squeezin' up mud with our toes again
Step on the rocks that cross the creek
Flip one over, What's that? EEEK!

Chorus

Time to eat, gotta get back home
Dad's in the kitchen, Mom's on the phone
Jump in the tub and goodbye mud
Run to the table, "Hey Dad, guess what ...
I saw a great big turtle,
First I thought it was a rock
When I reached down to flip it
It took a little walk!"

Chorus

Sun's a settin', gettin' sleepy
I sure did play, played all day
Found a brand new friend, looks like a rock
Put him under my covers in a great big box
Jump in the bed, flip out the light
Little drink of water and kiss goodnight
Close my eyes and dive on in
Playin' all night in my dreams again

Chorus
