The Ballad Of Woodsy Owl
[Verse 1]
Smokey Bear has got a pal who is always on the prowl
Woodsy is his name, you know, he’s the anti-pollution owl
Woodsy Owl has got a home on the big branch of a tree
When he looks from left to right, town and forest he can see

[Chorus]
Give a hoot, don’t pollute, your good outdoor manners show
Leave a trail that’s nice and clean wherever you may go (Hoot hoot!)
Give a hoot, don’t pollute, Woodsy Owl knows what is best
Help him check pollution in the North, South, East and West (Hoot hoot!)

[Verse 2]
Woodsy’s eyes are wide alert and his hooter goes hoot-hoot
Giving out a warning sound when he sees things that pollute
This great country is our own and it’s up to us to care
Woodsy Owl will lead the way, so come on, let’s do our share

[Chorus]
Give a hoot, don’t pollute, your good outdoor manners show
Leave a trail that’s nice and clean wherever you may go (Hoot hoot!)
Give a hoot, don’t pollute, Woodsy Owl knows what is best
Help him check pollution in the North, South, East and West (Hoot hoot!)
