O'er the river and thru the woods,
To grandmother's house we go;
Boo~bear knows the way to carry the trailer,
Thru the white and drifted snow, oh!
O'er the river and thru the woods,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.
O'er the river and thru the woods,
To get some second-hand furniture;
Oh, hear the bells ring, "Ting-a-ling-ling!"
Hurrah for Moving Day!
O'er the river and thru the wood,
ZOOM fast my big black RAM!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound!
For this is Moving Day...
O'er the river and through the woods,
And straight through the backyard gate.
We seem to go extremely slow
It is so hard to wait!
O'er the river and through the wood --
Now Grandmother's roof I spy!
Hurrah for the fun!

I'm like a kid in a candy store...
