Hi Friends,

As the Cattle Drivers sing,

Come on down to where the cattle graze,
Kick up your heels when the music plays,
It's a party down on the farm.

Turkeys and geese are all excited,
The cows couldn't be any more delighted,
The rooster crows "You're all invited!"
To a party down on the farm. > Hear the whole song! <
