    Barto’s Band

    My name is Barto.
    I live in the old town,
    High up on the hill
    With my mummy and daddy
    In a land called Portugal.

    There are lots of kids
    On our street.
    We like to be outside
    Playing football
    ‘Till it's time to come inside.

    I love to hear music.
    I stamp my feet
    And clap my hands.
    With friends of mine in school
    We formed a marching band.

    Our teacher helps us
    Learn the tunes.
    We practise everyday.
    Kids from school hang around.
    They like to hear us play.

    Teacher said
    In class today
    Our little band in school
    Is the first marching band
    In all of Portugal.

    I love playing my drums.
    I've spent so many nights
    Dreaming of the day
    When I play the drums
    In the summer parade.

    I wake up early.
    The day is finally here
    As the sun rises in the sky
    I'm so excited.
    The parade is on tonight.

    We meet up outside our school.
    There is so much laughing and talking.
    No one is standing still.
    We must calm down now and stand in line
    And get ready to walk up the hill.

    In front of us
    Girls are waving flags
    Coloured white and black
    With the flute players in the middle
    And the drummers at the back.

    Teacher calls out to us,
    “Are we ready, girls and boys?
    Let's give the town a treat.”

    Come on everybody now!
    One. Two. Three!

    We make a lot of noise.
    There are three drummers in our band.
    Maria, Miguel and me.

    Come on everybody now!
    One. Two. Three!

    People line the road.
    They shout and wave at us
    As we march along the street.

    Come on everybody now!
    One. Two. Three!

    We march up and down the hill.
    Then back beside the river
    That flows down to the sea.

    Come on everybody now!
    One. Two. Three!

    We pass by mummy and daddy.
    I don't hear them calling me.

    Come on everybody now.
    One. Two. Three!

    We cross the main road
    And stop outside the school.

    “Let's shout out loud one more time.”

    Come on everybody now.
    One. Two. Three!
