Wolfie went a Walking
Verse 1
Wolfie went a-walking in his big straw hat,
His big straw hat, his big straw hat,
And he knocked on the door with a rat-a-tat-tat, (clap)
Oh Grandma let me in!
Chorus
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
It’s cold outside.
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
Grandma dear, won’t you let me in,
It’s cold outside.
Verse 2
Grandma heard the knocking and she went to the door,
Went to the door, went to the door,
She peeped through the letterbox,
And saw a hairy paw, (speak) Oh, dear me!
A very hairy paw!
Chorus
Verse 3
‘Little Red Riding Hood,
You don’t look right,
Don’t look right, don’t look right,
You’re much too hairy and you’ve given me a fright, (howl)
I will not let you in!’
