LYRICS: I LOVE MY HAIR
(as sung by Gracie's Corner characters)

[Gracie speaking] There's so many features that make each of us special and unique. One of my favorite things is my hair. [Song begins] Ooh ooh ooh. Hey, hey, hey, yeah!
Look in the mirror and who do I see (Ee ah oh) The words in parenthesis are sung by one or more other children. Someone who's beautiful staring at me. (Ee ah oh} With smile so bright and sun kissed skin (Ee ah oh) The soul I have it starts from within. (Hey!Hey!) Living my life so freeee, (Hey hey!) Natural hair loves meee. (Hey hey!)
It doesn't matter if it's up or down (Hey hey!)
Proud of my hair cause it is my crown (Hey hey!)
My hair I love, I love, I love my hair! I love my hair (Hey!) Come along and sing with me Kinky, curly, cute (Hey!) I love my hair down to my roots (Hey!) Sweet like lemondade/ (Hey!) I love my hair in braids (Hey!) Oh yes down to my socks (Hey!) I love my hairs in locks (Hey!) Can't ever get enough (Hey!)
I love my afro puffs (Hey!)

(Hey!) Come along and sing with me I love, I love, I love my hair! I love my hair
My hair I love, I love, I love my hair! I love my hair (Hey!) Come along and sing with me Kinky, curly, cute (Hey!) I love my hair down to my roots (Hey!) Sweet like lemondade/ (Hey!) I love my hair in braids (Hey!) Oh yes down to my socks (Hey!) I love my hairs in locks (Hey!) Can't ever get enough (Hey!)
I love my afro puffs (Hey!)

(Hey!) Come along and sing with me I love, I love, I love my hair! I love my hair
