Well there's lots of worms way under the ground Lots of worms that I've never found I'll bet they're way down there diggin' around Way under the ground I dug the biggest hole I ever did dig The biggest hole, it sure was big! And when I got to the bottom, you know what I found Way under the ground Well there's lots of worms ... I found a worm to go on a fishing pole Way down there in that deep dark hole But I left him alone 'cause he liked his home Way under the ground Well there's lots of worms ... I found a bumpety bug with big black dots Three pairs of legs and twenty-two spots But I left it alone 'cause it liked its home Way under the ground Well there's lots of worms ... I found an old sow bug curled up in a ball She didn't move from there at all But I left her alone 'cause she liked her home Way under the ground Well there's lots of worms ... On a cool spring evening after the thaw I went to bring in the very last log When I lifted it up, well, you know what I found Down there on the ground? Well there's lots of worms ... I found a crazy worm doing his little dance Invasive species, can't leave things to chance He's bad for the soil, so I took care of him Didn't leave him around Well there's lots of worms ... I found the biggest worm while looking for spice I did not fear, he was so nice And he moved so fast on the sandy ground So I rode him around Well there's lots of worms ...
