Musical Monday: Bumpin' Up and Down

Bumpin' Up and Down in My Little Red Wagon is a fun, energetic song. It's great for when kids are restless or if they are falling asleep when you really want them to be awake (how often does THAT happen?) It takes a lot of energy on your part, so prepare yourself! I've never been able to do this just once with my daughter. She always asks to do it again...and again!



This video is a bit longer because it includes several variations, including with a baby. Here are the words to the song:
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon
Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon
Won't you be my darlin'

One wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
One wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
One wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
Won't you be my darlin'

Other wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
Other wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
Other wheel's off and the wagon's draggin'
Won't you be my darlin'
