If You Want to Make a Friend
Tune: If You're Happy and You Know It
This song was found on p. 45 in this Reading Rainbow Guide.



If you want to make a friend, wear a smile.
(children smile broadly)
If you want to make a friend, wear a smile.
(children smile)
If you wear a cheerful smile, you’ll have friends lined up for miles.
If you want to make a friend, wear a smile.
(children smile)


If you want to make a friend, say "Hello!"
(children turn to a neighbor and say "Hello!")
If you want to make a friend, say "Hello!"
(children say "Hello!")
If you always say "Hello!" then your list of friends will grow.
If you want to make a friend, say "Hello!"
(children say "Hello!")


If you want to make a friend, shake a hand.
(children shake hands with the person next to them)
If you want to make a friend, shake a hand
(children shake hands)
If you think to shake a hand, you’ll have friends across the land.
If you want to make a friend, shake a hand.
(children shake hands)

   
If you want to make a friend, do all three.
(children do all three actions)
If you want to make a friend, do all three.
(children do all three)
If we smile and say “Hello!” and shake hands with those we know,
I’ll be friends with you and you’ll be friends with me.
(children point to a friend and then to themselves)
