Friendly Joe Rabbit Was not in the habit Of running the race To the end He took every shortcut Beware of the wrong-cut And found every turn Every bend He said to Tom Turtle I’ve hopped every hurdle The race I will clearly contend And though you are slow Hither you go You’re steadfast A trusty old friend She said to Tom Turtle I’m taking it slow And so he will know This isn’t a show He trusted Joe Rabbit To follow him through He said it was true Before she even know Tom Turtle she said I’ll trust you instead And cautiously I’ll go My way Joe Rabbit pursued Like courtship he’d woo The race to the finish line drew The staggering pace That had to erase Before he was finished she knew Tom Turtle her friend Had lost in the end And happily she acquiesced Joe Rabbit my dear The answer is clear I’ll switch sides I’ll now go with you I’ve fallen in love From heaven above Joe Rabbit you’ve now Won my heart But right from the start Joe knew he was smart He knew how the story Would end They now share one heart And never will part As lovers their story Goes on Their friendship so dear No reason to fear Their future is now Very clear Two lovers apart Who followed their heart To live without worries of woes And right to the end They’ll always befriend Their journey was now to begin From living apart A home they will start And happily they’ll live Through their days Joe Rabbit, his speed Was all they did need Their love now is fully ablaze Forever is clear Their future so dear Happily ever after The song of the day True love finds a way A bridal bouquet To carry away A bride always be Thanks to Joe Rabbit and me So here’s to the day Joe Rabbit did say Live your life As husband and wife Live happily ever after I won the race No more a disgrace Tom Turtle has nothing To say Thanks to you all Time to clear the hall And everyone Have a good day

Joe Rabbit
Friendly Joe Rabbit Was not in the habit Of running the race To the end He took every shortcut Beware of the wrong-cut And found every turn Every bend He said to Tom Turtle I’ve hopped every hurdle The race I will clearly contend And though you are slow Hither you go You’re steadfast A trusty old friend She said to Tom Turtle I’m taking it slow And so he will know This isn’t a show He trusted Joe Rabbit To follow him through He said it was true Before she even know Tom Turtle she said I’ll trust you instead And cautiously I’ll go My way Joe Rabbit pursued Like courtship he’d woo The race to the finish line drew The staggering pace That had to erase Before he was finished she knew Tom Turtle her friend Had lost in the end And happily she acquiesced Joe Rabbit my dear The answer is clear I’ll switch sides I’ll now go with you I’ve fallen in love From heaven above Joe Rabbit you’ve now Won my heart But right from the start Joe knew he was smart He knew how the story Would end They now share one heart And never will part As lovers their story Goes on Their friendship so dear No reason to fear Their future is now Very clear Two lovers apart Who followed their heart To live without worries of woes And right to the end They’ll always befriend Their journey was now to begin From living apart A home they will start And happily they’ll live Through their days Joe Rabbit, his speed Was all they did need Their love now is fully ablaze Forever is clear Their future so dear Happily ever after The song of the day True love finds a way A bridal bouquet To carry away A bride always be Thanks to Joe Rabbit and me So here’s to the day Joe Rabbit did say Live your life As husband and wife Live happily ever after I won the race No more a disgrace Tom Turtle has nothing To say Thanks to you all Time to clear the hall And everyone Have a good day
