Ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
That's the Woody Woodpecker song
Ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
He's pecking it all day long
He pecks a few holes in a tree to see
If a redwood's really red
And it's nothing to him, on the tiniest whim
To peck a few holes in your head
Ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
That's the Woody Woodpecker tune
Ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
Makes the other woodpeckers swoon
Though it doesn't make sense to the dull and the dense
Why all the lady woodpeckers long
For ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
That's the Woody Woodpecker song
He he he he he. Ho ho ho ho ho
That's the Woody Woodpecker song
Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo. I love you too
He's pecking it all day long
He pecks a few holes in a tree to see
If a redwood's really red
And it's nothing to him, on the tiniest whim
To peck holes in your head
He he he he ho. Hoo hoo hoo he ho
That's the Woody Woodpecker tune
Ho ho ho ho ho. He he he he he
Makes the other woodpeckers swoon
Though it doesn't make sense to the dull and the dense
Why all the lady woodpeckers long
For ho ho ho ho ho. Ho ho ho ho ho
That's the Woody wood,
That's the Woody Woodpecker song 

Theme 2 (circa 1963): Cartoon Show Time, music by Walter W. Greene, lyrics by Judy Zahler.
