Do you remember the lyrics to to the famous song?
Sunny Day
Sweepin’ the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street
Come and play
Everything’s A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That’s where we meet
Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street
How to get to Sesame street…
How to get to Sesame Street
How to get to Sesame Street…
