- "Pig-Pen", Sally, Charlie Brown, Linus, Schroeder, Franklin, Peppermint Patty and others:
- Lucy's the boss, Lucy's the boss
- So you gotta listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy's the boss, Lucy's the boss
- So you gotta listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- And here's what Lucy says:
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Put your hands on your head.”
- Others: Listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Now turn around.”
- (Snoopy comes in while they are singing.)
- Others: Listen to Lucy. Listen to Lucy
- Lucy: “Put your hands by your side.”
- (Peppermint Patty, "Pig-Pen" and one other child do that and are out of the game.)
- Ah-ah, I didn’t say, "Lucy says!”
- Others: Lucy's the boss, so listen to Lucy
- And here's what Lucy says:
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Take your hands off your head.”
- Others: Listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Put them on your hips, now.”
- Others: Listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy: “Now jump up and down.”
- (Sally, Franklin and one other child do that and are out of the game)
- Ah-ah, I didn’t say "Lucy says!”
- Others: Lucy's the boss, so listen to Lucy
- And here's what Lucy says:
- Lucy: Lucy says, “I wanna be the queen of the world, yes I do.”
- Lucy says, “I want everything my way.” Hey-hey-hey!
- Lucy says, “I’m gonna be a beautiful girl, yes I am.”
- Lucy says, “I’m gonna marry Schroeder someday!”
- Schroeder: Oh, good grief!
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Pick up your right foot.”
- Others: Listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy: Lucy says, “Now hop on your left foot”
- Others: Listen to Lucy, listen to Lucy
- Lucy: “Now start running in place.”
- (Charlie Brown, Linus and Schroeder do that and are out of the game, Snoopy is the winner, of course.)
- Ah-ah, I didn’t say "Lucy says.”
- (Charlie Brown walks away.)
- Others: Lucy's the boss, so listen to Lucy
- And that’s what Lucy says!
- (Linus and Schroeder walk away.)
