Intro

Gambo goes VROOM, VROOM, VROOM!
But Gambo's not a truck!
Look who's coming down the road —
OH! WHAT A LOT OF LUCK!

Chorus

Things that go, go, GO!
What do you hear?
BEEP-BEEP! VROOOOM!
They're coming near!
Things that go, go, GO!
Listen to the sound!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet —
Vehicles all around!

Verse 1 — Fire Truck

Lilly's driving the big red truck,
Lights flash bright — look, look, look!
Up goes the ladder, here we come —
NEE-NAW! NEE-NAW!
Here comes the fire truck!

Verse 2 — Digger

Poff's in the yellow digger today,
Down goes the scoop — move out the way!
Lift it up and tip it out —
SCOOP! SCOOP!
DUMP! DUMP!
That's what diggers are about!

Chorus

Things that go, go, GO!
What do you hear?
BEEP-BEEP! VROOOOM!
They're coming near!
Things that go, go, GO!
Listen to the sound!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet —
Vehicles all around!

Verse 3 — Tractor

Nibs is driving the green tractor,
Round the field, slow as can be!
Never rushing, just rolling along —
PUTT-PUTT-PUTT!
Sing the tractor song!

Verse 4 — Bicycle

Toti's riding two blue wheels,
Pedal, pedal — how it feels!
Ears straight up, he hears it now —
RING-RING! RING-RING!
Make way for the bike!

Sound Game

Big truck — what does it say?
VROOOOM! VROOOOM!
Fire truck — what does it say?
NEE-NAW! NEE-NAW!
Tractor — what does it say?
PUTT-PUTT-PUTT!
Bicycle — what does it say?
RING-RING! RING-RING!

Quiz

Does a fire truck go NEE-NAW?
YES, YES, YES!
Does a tractor go PUTT-PUTT?
YES, YES, YES!
Does a bicycle go RING-RING?
YES, YES, YES!
Does a teddy bear go VROOM?
NO, NO, NO!
Teddy bears don't drive!

Final Chorus

Things that go, go, GO!
What do you hear?
BEEP-BEEP! NEE-NAW!
They're coming near!
Things that go, go, GO!
Everybody shout!
VROOOOM! RING-RING! PUTT-PUTT-PUTT!
Let's all drive about!

Gambo goes VROOM, but Gambo is not a truck — and then the real ones come down the road, one to a verse. Lilly drives the fire truck with its ladder up, Poff works the yellow digger, Nibs takes the green tractor round the field as slowly as it will go, and Toti rides a blue bicycle with a bell.

Then the song turns into a game. The sound game asks what each one says, and the quiz checks it — until it asks whether a teddy bear goes VROOM, and the answer is no: teddy bears don’t drive. The choruses ask for clapping and stomping, so it is one to play standing up.
