A Classic Revisited, Part 2

Happy March, everyone! I hope wherever you are, this month brings some nice weather your way. I think it's pretty safe to say that most Greater Cincinnatians are ready for some sunshine! I'm really excited for that seemingly-long-lost golden star, and I think it's also pretty safe to say that I'll be experiencing some warm rays when I visit my sister-in-law for her wedding in California in just a few weeks.
But back to music therapy! Remember the classic Sesame Street song, "Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood?" that I shared way back in October? Today I give you part 2 of the same song. Like the previous post, today's includes both original as well as modified verses.
I still have a few remaining verses that haven't been added into either part 1 or 2 of the song...Can you think of any other community helpers who should be included?
As a side note- I'm almost back to 100% vocal health, yay!



PEOPLE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
Who are the people in your neighborhood?
In your neighborhood
In your neighborhood
Who are the people in your neighborhood?
The people that you meet each day.

Oh, a dentist cares for all your teeth
The top ones and the ones beneath
So if you if you have an achy tooth,
I’ll check it quick and that’s the truth

If a story’s breaking she’ll be there
Find out who, and what, and where
She shares important interviews
She’s the news anchor on the news

A barber has a great big chair
You sit in it, he cuts your hair
He'll snip and clip and never rest
Until your haircut looks its best

Oh, a fireman is brave it's said
His fire truck is shiny red
If there's a fire anywhere about
He’ll be sure to put it out

The cook is the one who makes
Food like pizza, soup, and cakes
If you want something to eat, you’ll see
A cook makes food that’s so yummy

END:
Who are the people in your neighborhood?
In your neighborhood
In your neighborhood
Who are the people in your neighborhood?
They’re the people that you meet
When you’re walking down the street
The people that you meet each day
