Lyrics[]
CHORUS
In the Big Red Car we like to ride
Through the rainbow and the countryside
Guess what's over on the hill
It’s standing very still
Aaahahah
It's a scarecrow
CHORUS
Guess what's eating lots of grass
It moos at us as we drive past
Aaahahah
It's a cow
CHORUS
Guess what's jumping in the air
You know it jumps everywhere
Aaahahah
It's a kangaroo
