 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 Oh, that's the Woody Woodpecker song

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 Yeah, he's a-peckin' it all day long

 

 He pecks a few holes in a tree to see

 If a redwood's really red

 And it's nothing to him, on the tiniest whim

 To peck a few holes in your head

 

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 Oh, that's the Woody Woodpecker's tune

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 Makes the other woodpeckers swoon

 

 Though it doesn't make sense to the dull and the dense

 And the lady woodpeckers long for

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 That's the Woody Woodpecker song

 

 ------ instrumental interlude ------

 

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 Woody Woodpecker's serenade

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 On the woodpecker hit parade

 

 Though he can't sing a note, there's a frog in his throat

 All his top notes come out blurred

 He's the ladies' first choice, with a laugh in his voice

 He gives all his rivals the bird

 

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 He'll be settlin' down some day

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 He'll be hearin' the preacher say

 

 For the rest of your life you'll be Woody and wife

 And the choir will sing along with

 Ho-ho-ho ho ho! Ho-ho-ho ho ho!

 The Woody Woodpecker song
