The wheels on the bus go-’round and ’round,
‘Round and ’round, ’round and ’round.
The wheels on the bus go-’round and ’round,
All through the town.

The driver on the bus goes, “Move on back!”
“Move on back, move on back!”
The driver on the bus goes, “Move on back!”
All through the town.

The people on the bus go up and down,
Up and down, up and down.
The people on the bus go up and down,
All through the town.

The wipers on the bus go swish swish swish,
Swish swish swish, swish swish swish.
The wipers on the bus go swish swish swish,
All through the town.

The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep,
Beep beep beep, beep beep beep.
The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep,
All through the town.

The baby on the bus goes, “Wah wah wah!”
“Wah wah wah, wah wah wah!”
The baby on the bus goes, “Wah wah wah!”
All through the town.

The mommy on the bus goes, “Shh shh shh!”
“Shh shh shh, shh shh shh, shh shh shh!”
The mommy on the bus goes, “Shh shh shh!”
All through the town.

The wheels on the bus go-’round and ’round,
‘Round and ’round, ’round and ’round.
The wheels on the bus go-’round and ’round,
All through the town,
All through the town,
All through the town.

Summary:

This is a poem about the children who are on a bus trip.  As the children observe, they see that the wheels on the bus are going round and round throughout the town. They see the driver on the bus is moving the bus. They see the people are getting up and down from the bus. As the driver moves the bus, the little children observed that the wipers on the bus move with a sound ‘swish swish’ and the driver is blowing horn with a sound ‘beep beep’! Not before that, a baby starts to cry with the sound ‘wah wah’. Immediately, the mother said shhh shhh to the baby and the baby stops to cry.

All in all, the children have an amazing experience throughout their bus trip!
