Count, Count, Count Your Calories
(To the tune of Row, Row, Row Your Boat)
Calories to count
Every day, each meal.
Calories, calories, calories, calories,
Day one I count with zeal!
Seven, eight days go by
Counting every food.
Calories, calories, calories, calories,
No longer in the mood.
Some foods’ counts are high.
Noodles, muffins too.
Hoagies and ice cream and peanuts, tortillas.
I didn’t have a clue.
Calories to burn
As I exercise.
Calories, calories, calories, calories,
Watch the number rise!
If I walk a mile,
Quickly as I please,
Calories, calories, calories, calories,
Burns an ounce of cheese.
Count, count, count your calories
If only for a week.
Teaches you, teaches you, teaches you, teaches you
Weight loss that you seek.
Sure have learned a lot
Counting calories.
Let me eat, let me eat, let me eat, let me eat,
Wisely choosing, please.
