Song of the Week: We All Go Traveling By I spy with my little eyes, You can hear with your little ear, A yellow school bus goes beep beep beep. And we all go travelling by, bye-bye, And we all go travelling by.

I spy with my little eyes, You Can hear with your little ear, A bright red truck goes rumble rumble rumble A yellow school bus goes beep beep beep. And we all go travelling by, bye-bye, And we all go travelling by.

I spy with my little eyes, You can hear with your little ear, A long blue train goes chuff chuff chuff. A bright red truck goes rumble rumble rumble A yellow school bus goes beep beep beep. And we all go travelling by, bye-bye, And we all go travelling by.
