Riding In A Buggy
Traditional

Lyrics:

 

Riding in the buggy Miss Mary Jane,
Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane.
Riding in the buggy Miss Mary Jane,
I’m a long way from home.

Come ride with me.
Come ride with me.
Come ride with me, my darling.
Come ride with me.

Riding in a train Miss Mary Jane,
Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane.
Riding in a train Miss Mary Jane,
I’m a long way from home.

Come
ride with me....

Flying in a plane Miss Mary Jane,
Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane.
Flying in a plane Miss Mary Jane,
I’m a long way from home.

Come ride with me....

 

Activities:   
 

Sing Along:  During the verses, pretend to ride in the vehicle for that verse.  For the chorus, you can continue to “ride” in that vehicle or pat your laps to the beat.   Alternatively, you could make the sound of that vehicle during the chorus (instead of “Come ride with me,” sing “zoom zoom zoom zoom” or “fly fly fly fly”).  Take suggestions for what to ride in each verse.

Lap Song:  You could also put your child in your lap and instead of changing what vehicle or mode of transportation you ride, you could take suggestions for what else to do in a buggy (bounce, tickle, shake, turn, lean, fly, hug, etc.).  For example, “Bouncing in a buggy Miss Mary Jane...”
