This song is available on Danny Weinkauf's album Words.
(Chorus)
Nouns, nouns, nouns, nouns
Thing, idea, person, or place
A bunny, robot, ice cream cone
Or even your own face
Nouns, nouns, nouns, nouns
Person, place, idea, or thing
So let’s learn all about them
Together we can sing
Take any noun (any noun) give it a name (Nikolas)
Then you get a proper noun (a proper noun)
Like Shelly, Lena, Kai, or Ben
Smith, Jones, or Washington
Paris, New York, Rome or London town (Paris in the spring)
All of these are proper . . .
(Chorus)
Concrete nouns (concrete nouns) are anything (are anything)
You can touch or hold or see (I can touch it)
While abstract nouns (abstract nouns)
Are ideas like love and happiness and honesty
So sing with me now
(1/2 Chorus)
Pigtails, blackboard, toothpaste, keyboard
Haircut, snowflake, swimming pool, roller skates
2 or more words - forming one noun
What you have found is called compound!
(Chorus)
(Jaunty whistling outro with scatting ending)
