People Work Song

Watch the video and do the activities.
Lyrics
Nigel Naylor, he's a tailor
He makes trousers, suits and shirts
Penny Proctor, she's a doctor
Comes to see you when it hurts.
Peter Palmer, he's a farmer
He's got cows and pigs and sheep
Wendy Witter, babysitter
Minds the kids when they're asleep.

People work in the country
People work in the town
People work day and night
To make the world go round.

Mabel Meacher, language teacher
Teaches English, French and Greek
Gary Gummer, he's a plumber
Call him when you've got a leak.
Patty Prentice, she's a dentist
Keeps your teeth both clean and white
Ronnie Ryman, he's a fireman
Comes when there's a fire to fight.

People work in the country
People work in the town
People work day and night
To make the world go round.
