Bill Shontz - Oh Yes, He Did It lyrics

The Tortoise and the Hare A most unlikely pair Decided they would run a race Rabbit said, "I know That Turtle, you're too slow You're bound to finish second place." The Tortoise wasn't scared "OK, I'll race ya' hare" He slowly found the starting line Rabbit took off like a shot So did the Turtle - NOT! He crawled off singing "Clementine" Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best The Hare said, "Time for lunch" He found a carrot bunch And stopped to munch and eat his fill "I'm way ahead...perhaps I'll take a little nap" He fell asleep upon a hill Now as the Rabbit slept Past him Tortoise crept Rabbit woke up far behind He caught up in a flash But in the final dash Tortoise beat him 'cross the finish line Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best Now all you have to do Is try your hardest It doesn't matter if you're Slow or fast If at first you don't succeed Just keep on tryin' The one who quits will be the one Who ends up last Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best Oh my darlin', oh my darlin' (Oh yes, he did it) Oh my darlin' Clementine (He showed that he could do his best) Oh yes, he did it He showed that he could do his best
