"Good Manners" is an original Barney song that first appeared in Rock with Barney.

Lyrics

My parents started teaching me

When I was just two

All about manners

And the right things to do

They told me "Learn to say 'Thank You'

And learn to say 'Please'

And learn to say 'Excuse me'

If you happen to sneeze."

Good manners,

Good manners,

Good manners are important

To everyone in the world.

My parents kept on teaching me

When I was three

And then the more I learned,

The more that I could see,

That there's a way to do it wrong,

There's a way to do it right.

Everybody use your manners now

And be polite

Good manners,

Good manners,

Good manners are important

To everyone in the world

Good manners,

Good manners,

Good manners are important

To everyone in the world.

Good manners are important

To everyone in the world.
