A Noun Is a Person, Place or Thing Songtext
von Lynn Ahrens

A Noun Is a Person, Place or Thing Songtext

Well every person you can know
And every place that you can go
And anything that you can show
You know they′re nouns
A noun's a special kind of word
It′s any name you ever heard
I find it quite interesting
A noun's a person, place, or thing

Oh I took a train, took a train to another state
The flora and the fauna that I saw were really great
When I saw some bandits chasin' the train
I was wishin′ I was back home again
I took a train, took a train to another state


Well, every person you can know
(Like a bandit or an engineer)
And every place that you can go
(Like a state or a home)
And anything that you can show
(Like animals and plants or a train)
You know they′re nouns
You know they're nouns, oh

Mrs. Jones is a lady on Hudson Street
She sent her dog to bark at my brother and me
We gave her dog a big fat bone
And now he barks at Mrs. Jones
She′s a lady who lives on Hudson Street

Well, every person you can know
(Mrs. Jones, a lady, or a brother)
And every place that you can go
(Like a street or a corner)
And anything that you can show
(Like a dog or a bone)
You know they're nouns
You know they′re nouns, oh

I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty
My best friend was waitin' there for me
(He took an early ferry)
We went for a walk on the island you know
And in the middle of summer it started to snow
When I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty


Well every person you can know
(Like a friend or the captain of a ship)
And every place that you can go
(An island or a sea)
And anything that you can show
(Like a statue, a ferry, or snow)
You know they′re nouns - you know they're nouns

Oh, I put a dime in the drugstore record machine
Oldies goldies started playing if you know what I mean
I heard Chubby Checker, he was doin' the twist
And the Beatles and the Monkees, it goes like this!
I put a dime in the drugstore record machine

Well every person you can know
(The Beatles and the Monkees, Chubby Checker)
And every place that you can go
(Like a neighborhood or a store)
And anything that you can show
(Like a dime or a record machine)
You know they′re nouns

A noun′s a special kind of word
It's any name you ever heard
I find it quite interesting
A noun′s a person, place, or thing

A noun is a person, place or thing
