Let’s Build a Castle!

V1
Let’s build a castle,
Let’s build it tall,
With a moat around it
And a very thick wall.
Let’s build a gatehouse,
Let’s build it right,
With slits for arrows
We’ll soon be ready to fight!

Chorus
So let’s all build, build, build,
And make it tall, tall, tall,
With a very thick wall, wall, wall,
To keep the enemy out, out, out! 

V2
Let’s build a castle,
Let’s build it tall,
With a moat around it,
And a very thick wall.
Let’s build a dungeon,
That’s dark and cold,
To put the people
Who just won’t do as they’re told!

Chorus

V3
Let’s build a castle,
Let’s build it tall,
With a moat around it,
And a very thick wall.
Let’s build a turret,
That’s strong and stout,
And have a drawbridge
To keep the enemy out!

Chorus
