He's up each morning, bright and early,
To wake up all the neighborhood,
To bring to every boy and girlie
His happy serenade on wood.

Hear him pickin' out a melody;

To serenade your lady,
Just find a tree that's shady,
And when you hear that tick-a-tick-tick, tick-a-tick-tick,
Sing right along.

Come on and try his rhythm,
And let your hearts beat with him.
Just listen to that tick-a-tick-tick, tick-a-tick-tick;
Happy little woodpecker song.
