The Wheels on the Bus

"The Wheels on the Bus" is a children's folk song written by Verna Hills that teaches how goes any part on a bus. The earliest known publishing of the lyrics is the December 1937 issue of American Childhood, originally called "The Bus", with the lyrics being "The wheels of the bus", with each verse ending in lines relevant to what the verse spoke of, as opposed to the current standard "all through the town" or "all day long".
