Words and Music by Tom Paxton
Daddy's taking us to the zoo tomorrow
Zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow;
Daddy's taking us to the zoo tomorrow
We can stay all day

(Cho:)
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

See the elephant with the long trunk swingin'
Great big ears and long trunk swingin'
Snuffin' up peanuts with the long trunk swingin';
We can stay all day

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

See all the monkeys scritch scritch scratchin'
Jumpin' all around and scritch scritch scratchin'
Hangin' by their long tails scritch scritch scratchin';
We can stay all day
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

Big black bear, all a huff huff a-puffin';
Coat's too heavy, he's huff huff a-puffin'
Don't get too near the huff huff a-puffin'
Or you won't stay all day

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

Seals in the pool all honk honk honkin'
Catchin' fish and honk honk honkin'
Little seals honk honk honkin'; (high pitched voice)
We can stay all day

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

(Slower tempo)
We stayed all day and we're gettin' sleepy
Sittin' in the car gettin' sleep sleep sleepy
Home already and we're sleep sleep sleepy
We have stayed all day
We've been to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
So have you, you, you
You came too, too, too
We're been to the zoo, zoo, zoo

Momma's taking us to the zoo tomorrow
Zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow;
Momma's taking us to the zoo tomorrow
We can stay all day

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo;
How about you, you, you?
You can come too, too, too
We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo
