Lyrics

Way up in the branches of a tree

Way up in the air

If you're looking, you might see

the food that grows up there in a tree

Apples, Peaches, Plums and Pears

Limes and Lemons grow up there

Plumps of Cherries grow to be

The fruits that come from a tree

Way up in the branches of a tree

Way up in the air

If you're looking, you might see

the food that grows up there in a tree

Walnuts, Almonds, Chestnuts too

We can eat like the squirrels all do

On those branches, I can see

A tasty snack for me.

Way up in the branches of a tree

Way up in the air

If you're looking, you might see

the food that grows up there in a tree

A Great Big Orange that you can peel

Maple Syrup for a pancake meal

Isn't it wonderful there can be

Foods that comes from a tree

Way up in the branches of a tree

Way up in the air

If you're looking, you might see

the food that grows up there in a tree

If you're looking, you might see

the food that grows up there in a tree!

Trivia

• In "Up, Down and Around!" and Barney's Jungle Friends, the lyrics in the second verse:'"Walnuts almonds Chestnuts too we can eat like the squirrels all do on those branches I can see a tasty snack for me" were cut to make the song shorter.
