[Verse 1: Train]
One day on Sesame Street
We wanted something to eat
Something that was healthy and sweet
A yummy, juicy treat
We went to Hooper's Store
For two peaches, maybe more
How many, we weren't sure at all

[Pre-Chorus 1: Train & Count von Count]
But then the Count said
I know how to get us fed
No need to cause a fuss
We will count each one of us

[Chorus 1: Train & Elmo, Count von Count]
Oh, he was counting
Finding the amount then
We found we were five guys
One, two, three, four, five
It was exciting
The thundеr and the lightning
Way up high in the sky
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
They wеre real riche
We needed one each
If we grabbed a peach
This is what the Count did teach
We were counting
Finding the amount then
We counted up to five
One, two, three, four, five
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
[Verse 2: Train]
On the way down Sesame Street
We started feeling beat
We needed to rest our feet
We wanted to take a seat
We look for a chair or two
How many, no one knew
Didn't know just what to do at all

[Pre-Chorus 2: Train & Count von Count]
But then the Count spoke
I know what to do, no joke
No need to cause a fuss
We will count each one of us

[Chorus 2: Train & Elmo, Count von Count]
We were counting
Finding the amount then
Found out we were five guys
One, two, three, four, five
Filled us with wonder
The lightning and the thunder
Booming out across the sky
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
And they were right there
Each one of us could take a chair
The Count had helped make us aware
He taught us how, yes, this I swear
We were counting
Finding the amount then
We counted up to five
One, two, three, four, five
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
One, two, three, four, five
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
One, two, three, four, five
