Sesame Street - Stick Out Your Hand And Say Hello Lyrics

Rick & Bert: Stick out your hand and say hello
You might meet someone just like you who's really great to know

Rick: Now, mind you, I love the friends I've got

Bert: Oh, sure. But making a new one hits the spot

Rick: Howdy, I'm Rick, how are you, man?

Bert: Hello!

Rick: It's always swell to run across another oatmeal fan!

Bert: I'm Bert, and hey, meeting you is neat
Those shoes and socks do wonders for your feet!
(they're both wearing saddle shoes and argyle socks!)

Rick & Bert: Even if you're kind of shy, don't worry, it's okay
Come on, reach out and shake a hand and make a friend today!

Rick: Hi, I like pigeons, how 'bout you?

Bert: Wha- Wow! I don't believe this, you know, I love pigeons too!

Cowgirl & Blue guy in seats behind them: Me too!

Rick: What's shakin' neighbors, put 'er there!

Cowgirl & Blue guy: The pleasure's ours!

Bert: Gee thanks - (to Blue guy) I dig your hair! (he has Bert-hair!)

Blue guy: Oh!

All 4: Sometimes it might be hard to be the one who breaks the ice
But try it and you'll find that making friends is really nice

Everybody on the plane: SO, stick out your hand and say hello
Hello!
You might meet someone just like you who's really great to know

Stewardess: How are ya?

Guy in back: What's new?

All: Hey, how ya doin'? Alright!

Cow: When I meet someone new, I feel like mooin'! MOOOOOOOOOO!

All: Yeah! Stick out your hand and say hello

Cowgirl: Hi!

All: You might meet someone just like you who's really great to know
It's wonderful to watch how friendships grow
When you stick out your hand and say
Isn't life grand today?
Stick out your hand and say hello!

(And then everybody on the plane laughs like Bert!)
