Come into the Circle
Liz Buchanan
[Chorus]
​
Come into the circle, cockadoodle, cockadoodle,
Come into the circle, cockadoodle-doo (Repeat)
If you’ve got a song, come into the circle
If you’ve got a song, come and sing
If you’ve got a story, come into the circle
If you’ve got a story, come and tell.
​
[Chorus]

If you play the drum, come into the circle
If you play the drum, let’s hear it now!
If you play the fiddle, come into the circle
If you play the fiddle, let’s hear it now!
​
[Chorus]
​
​
Oh clap your hands, clap them in the circle
Clap your hands, clap clap clap
Now join the band, come into the circle.
Come on down and join the band
And wave your hands, wave them in the circle
Wave your hands and say hello!
Hola! Namaste! Konnichiwa! Jambo!
​
[Chorus]
​
We’re all in the circle cockadoodle, cockadoodle, We’re all in the circle, cockadoodle-doo.
Cockadoodle-doo!
