We’re Going to the Bookmobile” – written and performed by Marc Falk

LYRICS: [Chorus] We’re going to the Bookmobile You know it’s a real big deal It’s like a library, but it’s on wheels It’s the Bookmobile

You might see it driving around Going up one street then going down I think it’s coming to your town It’s the Bookmobile

[Chorus]

It’s got a lot of books inside Places to read, places to hide Librarians go for a ride In the Bookmobile

[Chorus]

It’s got a lot of DVDs Rock ‘em, sock ‘em movies You can check them out if you ask them please At the Bookmobile

[Chorus]

All around the town it roams It’s got a lot of books to loan You can check them out, you can take them home From the Bookmobile

[Chorus]

It’s the leader of the pack Bringing books to you right on track When you’re done you got to bring them back To the Bookmobile

[Chorus] You can play with Frog and Toad Oliver Twist, or Old Tom Joe Jack Kerouac goes On the Road In his Bookmobile

[Chorus]

Spell B-O-O-K-M-O-B Follow up with a I-L-E Drivin’ around Iowa City It’s the Bookmobile

[Chorus] x2

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
