Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Bobby Susser

1. The child/children may join in the chorus or sing the entire song.
2. The parent/teacher may discuss with the child/children the importance of people getting to know each other and how it helps to understand one another.
3. If there is more than one child involved and the setting is appropriate, the children may join hands to form a circle and sway from side to side while singing “Getting To Know Each Other.”

You don’t like to guess
You just want to know
Sometimes I say yes
Sometimes I say no
You don’t want to wait
You don’t have the time
Sometimes I am late
Sometimes I’m on time

Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other
Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other

You don’t like to stop
You just want to go
I don’t really stop
I just take it slow
You like summertime
You like early spring
I like wintertime
I like Christmasing
Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other
Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other

Doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo
You don’t like to guess
You just want to know
Sometimes I say yes
Sometimes I say no

Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other
Getting to know each other
We’re gettıng to know each other
Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other
Getting to know each other
We’re getting to know each other
