Eight beautiful notes

I play eight notes they sound like this

When I play them I can't miss

First I play them one by one

Then I sing them just for fun

La la la la la la la la

First I play, then I sing, but counting is my favorite thing

Counting is my favorite thing!

Come let us count the notes together

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

Oh what joy, just can't wait,

Ev'rybody count to 8.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

Eight beautiful notes

Oh boy, do I love counting notes.

And do you know a wonderful thing about these notes-

I can count them another way.

I play eight notes going down

I play eight notes all over town

First I play them one by one

Then I sing them just for fun

La la la la la la la la

First I play, then I sing, but counting is my favorite thing

Counting is my favorite thing!

Now count the notes backwards from 8.

Here we go!

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Eight beautiful notes!
