William's Cars is a song written by a 4 year old during a piano lesson! It's based on the C Major Scale and each new line goes up the C major scale.

In the song, we mention the C scale but in solfege (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Ti). In alphabetical terms, the C Major scale would be C, D, E, F, G, A, B.

Now listen to this song and hear the scale in the song!

Lyrics:

The red car goes vroom
The red car goes vroom
The blue card goes vroom vroom
The blue card goes vroom vroom

The green car goes vroom vroom vroom
The green car goes vroom vroom vroom
Machine attacks the car
Machine attacks the car

The purple car flies in the air
The purple car flies in the air
The tractor helps the purple car  
The tractor helps the purple car  

Little jeep saves them machine
Little jeep saves them machine
And these are all of William’s cars

So good did you know that William’s cars is based on the C scale
We start with c at the bottom and we end in C at the top
Do you guys want to try it?

Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti Do

The red car goes vroom
The red car goes vroom
The blue card goes vroom vroom
The blue card goes vroom vroom

The green car goes vroom vroom vroom
The green car goes vroom vroom vroom
Machine attacks the car
Machine attacks the car

The purple car flies in the air
The purple car flies in the air
The tractor helps the purple car  
The tractor helps the purple car  

Little jeep saves them machine
Little jeep saves them machine
And these are all of William’s cars
