Sing a Song!
I Want To Lead a Band
I want to lead a band
With a baton in my hand.
I want to make sweet music high and low.
Now first I'll beat the drum
With a rhythmic tum-tum-tum.
And then I'll play the bells
A-ting-a-ling-a-ling.
And next I'll blow the flute
With a cheery toot-a-toot.
Then I'll make the violin sweetly sing.
Now I'm leading a band
With a baton in my hand.
Watch!
