"The Sounds That The Letters Make" lyrics

Mr. Greg & Cass McCombs Lyrics

"The Sounds That The Letters Make"

A /a/, B /b/, C /k/, D /d/

These are the sounds that the letters make
Put them all together and words you'll create
I can spell Abe with letters three
A and a B and the last letter E

F /f/, G /g/, E /e/, H /h/

I can write hi with an H and an I
It's really quite simple if you give it a try

I /i/, J /j/, K /k/, L /l/

I've got a friend by the name of Tim
He writes it quick and easy with a T I M
Draw a table top T, an I tall and slim
And two twin hills to make an M

M /m/, N /n/, O /o/, P /p/

What's the silly song that the mallards do?
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Is a word that starts with Q

Q /kw/, R /r/, S /s/, T /t/

Cover your sneeze when you have the flu
Don't wanna spread the germs of the F L U

U /u/, V /v/, W /w/, X /ks/

These are the sounds that the letters make
Put them all together and words you'll create
What's that buzzin' fly doing on that pie?
It must be H U N G R Y

Y /y/, zig zag Z /z/ /z/ /z/ /z/
