The words
L! L! L! Luh, luh, luh!
L is for Lion, Lion, Lion! L is for Lion — luh, luh, L!
Luh-luh-lemon, yellow and bright, luh-luh-lamb, fluffy and white, luh-luh-ladder, climb up high, L is for Lion — touch the sky!
Luh-luh-leaf floating down, luh-luh-lorry going to town, luh-luh-lollipop, lick, lick, lick, L is for Lion — quick, quick, quick!
Sit up tall, then stretch out long, tail out flat and head up strong, stretch out, Lion — look, he's an L! (Roar!)
Luh-luh-lamp to light the night, luh-luh-ladybird, spotty and bright, luh-luh-log in the wood, L is for Lion — oh so good!
Say it with me: luh! (luh!) Say it again: luh! (luh!) Show your claws: luh! (luh!) Stretch out long: luh! (luh!) Luh, luh, luh, luh — L! L! Lion!
Luh-luh-lock and a key, luh-luh-lighthouse by the sea, luh-luh-lettuce, crunch and munch, L is for Lion — time for lunch!
Roar! Roar!
L is for Lion, Lion, Lion! L is for Lion — luh, luh, L! L is for Lion, Lion, Lion! L is for Lion — luh, luh, L!
Lemon, lamb, ladder, leaf, lorry, lollipop, lamp, ladybird, log, lock, lighthouse, lettuce — L is for Lion...
