Big Red Bus

The teddy bears are back, and this time with more vehicles!
A routemaster London bus, a mini cooper, a Ferrari, a horse and waggon, a steam train, a helicopter, a space rocket, a JCB digger, and the DeLorean time machine from back to the future!


Lyrics:
A big red bus, a big red bus
Mini Mini Mini and a big red bus
Ferrari! Ferrari!
Mini Mini Mini and a big red bus

A big red bus, a big red bus
Waggon waggon waggon and a big red bus
A steam train, a steam train
Waggon waggon waggon and a big red bus

A big red bus, a big red bus
Helicopter helicopter, big red bus
Space rocket, space rocket
Helicopter helicopter, big red bus

A big red bus, a big red bus
Digger digger digger and a big red bus
DeLorean, DeLorean
Digger digger digger and a big red bus

Origin:
The tune is a traditional Moroccan song (Arabic: رام سام سام), also known as “A Ram Sam Sam”
The most well know adaptation is “The Fast Food Song” also known as “A Pizza Hut” or “Pizza-ha-ha” in Dutch, with versions by Eric Dikeb, Fast Food Rockers, DJ Ötzi and Dikeb
The fast food version lyrics are: A Pizza Hut, a Pizza Hut. Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut.
The Big Red Bus version is a variation using different vehicles, with many different versions. The Mini and Ferrari verse is sung in Great Britain because the Mini Cooper is an iconic British car. A green mini cooper is recognisable around the world as the famous car driven by Mr Bean.
The other verses in this version are Little Woolly Vision originals written by Ed Hartwell.
