Where Did They Go?

Where Did They Go? is a song in JumpStart Reading for Kindergartners.

Lyrics
I went to the barnyard when I woke up at dawn. I noticed my D-O-G was gone. Where did she go? Oh I don't know. So I sing this sad dog song. My dog is gone.

Around the barnyard I walked after dawn. Then I noticed my P-I-G was gone. Where did he go? Oh I don't know. So I sing this sad pig song. My pig is gone.

They never said good-bye. Oh why did they leave me oh why? What happened to them? Did they come to harm? Or did they just leave me for some other farm...er?

Then I walked to the barn a bit later on. Then I noticed my C-O-W was gone. Where did she go? Oh I don't know. So I sing this sad cow song. My cow is gone.

I went to the house a tad later on. Then I noticed my C-A-T was gone. Where did she go? Oh I don't know. So I sing this sad cat song. My cat is gone.

They never said good-bye, So all I can do is cry. What happened to them? Did they come to harm? Or did they just leave me for some other farm...er?

I went to the mailbox that afternoon. Got a postcard from you can guess who. It said, "We borrowed your car, We haven't gone far, We're on vacation and we'll be back soon." Signed, DOG, PIG, COW and CAT too.
