Hello little roly poly polar bear
In your light reflecting warm collecting
Mama’s waiting best be hasty snow white fur

In the Arctic snow on the ice
You’ll swim and dive and catch
And run and sleep and roly poly grow

Show show me your little roly poly baby twinkle toes
Stomp stomp stomp
Your little roly polar bear feet
Wriggle like an otter, swim like a fish
Slide like a penguin, splash splash splish

In the Arctic snow by the sea
You’ll swim and dive and catch
And run and sleep and roly poly grow

If the sea ice melts, when the hot sun glows
Where will little roly poly baby polar bears
And their parents go?

Oh such a dear little roly poly polar bear
In your light reflecting warm collecting
Mama’s waiting best be hasty snow white fur

You still need somewhere cold
To swim and dive and catch
And run and sleep and roly poly grow

By the sea you’ll swim and dive and catch
And run and sleep and roly poly grow

On the ice you’ll swim and dive and catch
And run and sleep and roly poly grow

Little roly poly polar bear in your polar bear home
