Spoken: Leaders of the pack, howl about that (4x)
Verse 1:
There is something so exciting about the sound of wolves howling
In the springtime, deep in the forest when the snow begins to thaw.
Itʼs the time when baby wolves are born,
And their mama feeds and keeps them warm.
And daddy runs to hunt for dinner.
These two parents work together,
‘Cause they love their pups and love each other.
CHORUS:
They’re the leaders of the pack.
They howl and bark and their pack howls back.
They have a way of knowing
How to keep their family safe and growing.
They are strong. They are wild.
They guide their pack with a protective style.
They’re alpha wolves and they’re the leaders of the pack.
Spoken: Leaders of the pack, howl about that (2x)
Verse 2:
There is something so exciting about the sound of wolves howling
In the summertime, deep in the forest when the wolf pups leave their den.
And the members of the pack all work together
To care for the pups in all kinds of weather.
This is their time to learn and play,
And mama and papa wolf show the way
‘Cause they love their pups and love each other.
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Wolves have family values just like you and me.
They work hard to keep their children healthy, safe and free.
And when I hear wolves howling, I know deep in my heart
We must protect their habitat, and keep them safe from harm.
And daddy runs to hunt for dinner.
These two parents work together in spring, summer, fall and winter.
