Sing this to the tune of "Little Teapot":

Here's a little groundhog, furry and brown.
He's popping up to look around.
If he sees his shadow, down he'll go.
Six more weeks of winter - oh, no.

Another catchy groundhog song: "I Am a Groundhog" (.pdf)

Stay Away, Sun !

There's only one day the whole long year,
That I hope and pray the sun won't appear.

The second of February, you all know,
The groundhog goes searching for his shadow.

If he should find it, the story is told,
We'll have six more weeks of winter's cold.

But if it's cloudy, his shadow's not there.
There'll soon be warm weather and days will be fair.

So please, Sun, for just this one day,
Find a big dark cloud--and stay away!
