Muskrat, muskrat, what makes your back so slick
I've been livin' in the water all of my life
There's a wonder I ain't sick
I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick

Groundhog, groundhog, what makes your back so round
I've been livin' in the ground all of my life
There's a wonder I'm around
I'm around, I'm around, I'm around

Gaper, gaper, what makes you fly so high
I've been eating these savings all of my life
There's a wonder I don't die
I don't die, I don't die, I don't die

Rooster, rooster, what makes your bark so hard
I've been scratchin' in the barnyard all of my life
There's a wonder I ain't tired
I ain't tired, I ain't tired, I ain't tired

Bobcat, bobcat, what makes your tail so long
I've been prowlin' around all of my life
There's a wonder I ain't gone
I ain't gone, I ain't gone, I ain't gone
