Lyrics

(If done as a repeat and answer song, each line is repeated by scouts)

You can’t ride in my little red wagon
Front seat’s broken and the axel’s dragging
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!

Second verse, same as the first,
A little bit louder and a little bit worse!

Third verse, same as the first,
But a whole lot louder and a whole lot worse!

Continue repeating until your starting quiet voice is a loud screaming voice.

Variation

Fourth verse, it doesn’t exist,
But if it did it would sound like this!

You can’t ride in my radio flya
Back seat’s broken from the amplifier.
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!

Fifth verse, it doesn’t exist,
But if it did it would sound like this!

You can’t ride in my Lamborghini
Your butt’s too big and the seat’s too teeny.
Back seat’s broken from the amplifier.
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!

Sixth verse, it doesn’t exist,
But if it did it would sound like this!
You can’t ride in my little red dragon
the flame is broken and the tail is saggin’.
Back seat’s broken from the amplifier.
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!
Chuga! Chuga! Chuga-chuga-chuga!

Seventh verse, it doesn’t exist,
But coming soon is the new remix!
