IN THE KANGAROO POUCH
(Dot and the Kangaroo)

Some people ride camels and some prefer mules
While others ride turtles and don't they look fools
But I curl up inside, just enjoying the view
As I ride in the pouch of a red kangaroo

As she rides in the pouch of a red kangaroo

We slide through the air and bounce over the ground
With a hippity hoppity thumpity sound
The best fun in the world and I tell you it's true
Is to ride in the pouch of a red kangaroo

Is to ride in the pouch of a red kangaroo

Hippity hoppity, thumpity thump
When you come with us, you'll know
Hippity hoppity, bumpity bump
That's the way we go

You can travel by boat, you can travel by train
You can walk if you like, and get stuck in the rain
But the best way to travel, the smart thing to do
Is to ride in the pouch of a red kangaroo

Is to ride in the pouch of a red kangaroo

Hippity hoppity, thumpity thump
When you come with us, you'll know
Hippity hoppity, bumpity bump
That's the way we go

We jump through the bush and bounce up to the sky
And if you're too frightened, you'd better not try
But just stand aside and yell, "Hullabaloo
There goes Dot in the pouch of a red kangaroo!"

Dot in the pouch
Dot in the pouch
Dot in the pouch 
Of a red 
Kangaroo
