Lyrics
I love my hat, my straw hat,
I wear it all year round.
Summer, autumn, winter and spring.
My hat is on my head!
I love my cap, my baseball cap,
I wear it all year round.
Summer, autumn, winter and spring.
My cap is on my head!
I love my hat, my floppy hat,
I wear it all year round.
Summer, autumn, winter and spring.
My hat is on my head!
I love my hat, my beanie hat,
I wear it all year round.
Summer, autumn, winter and spring.
My beanie's on my head!
I said my beanie's on my head!
