He makes trousers, suits and shirts.             -->                 He uses green and red and white.




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

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.
