If you go down to the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise
If you go down to the woods today

You better go in disguise

For every bear that ever there was

Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic


Every teddy bear who's been good
Is sure of a treat today
There's lots of marvelous things to eat

And wonderful games to play

Beneath the trees, where nobody sees

They'll hide and seek as long as they please
'Cause that's the way the teddy bears have their picnic


Picnic time for teddy bears
The little teddy bears are having a lovely time today
Watch them, catch them unawares

And see them picnic on their holiday
See them gaily gad about


They love, to play and shout, they never have any cares
At six o'clock their mommies and daddies
Will take them home to bed

Because they're tired little teddy bears

If you go down in the woods today

You better not go alone
It's lovely down in the woods today
But safer to stay at home


For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there together because

Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic
