36 Reading: The Sport of Champions!
Oh, we…love to dance, to hop, to surf to sled and skip
And sail and soar until the day is done.
There’s throwing, catching, climbing, passing, swimming, flipping,
And, yes, we like to run!
There’s snorkeling, biking, tumbling, hiking, all are lots of fun.
But let me tell ya what this champion thinks is #1.
Chorus:
Ohhhh…Read! I love to read! She loves to read!
To plant the seed that feeds my readin’ need for me to be informed.
Since I was born, Since she was born,
I’ve heard the words, She’s heard the words,
And now I read what I have heard because that’s how I love to learn.
Spoken:
So now that I have shared my cares,
I’ll let you take a turn:
Chant:
C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N
We got it, we got it, we got it going on.
C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N
We got it, we got it, we got it going on.
Who do? We do!
You do? Me, too!
We do we do we do we do we do we do…
(Instrumental Solo)
Chorus:
Oh, read! I love to read! She loves to read!
To plant the seed that feeds my readin’ need for me to be informed.
Since I was born, Since she was born,
I’ve heard the words, She’s heard the words,
And now I read what I have heard because that’s how I love to learn.
And now I read what I have heard because that’s how I love to learn.
