about

There's something really fun about Hippos bouncing up and down. Kudos to Charlotte's Jamie Hoover for the amazing harmony vocals on this tune.

HAPPY HIPPOS HOPPING
Words & Music © 2007 Roger Day (All Rights Reserved)
From the CD Dream Big! available at RogerDay.com

They hop on one foot and then the other
While blowing kisses at their father and their mother
They’re happy so happy they hop all day
They’re smiling big smiles and that’s why I say…

CHORUS
Happy Hippos Hopping
Spinning, laughing, never stopping
I don’t know why they hop to the sky
Everywhere around there are hippos high up off the ground
Without a care up in the air

They hop in rivers in shallow waters
While one eye watches for the crocodile’s young daughter
They’re happy so happy they hop all day
They’re smiling great big hippo smiles that’s why I say…

CHORUS

They’re happy so very happy they hop all day
They’re smiling great big hippo smiles that’s why I say…

CHORUS
