First you take the pumpkin and you pick it,
You pick it, you pick it, pick it, pick it.
Pumpkin, Pumpkin Pie Yummy! Pumpkin, Pumpkin Pie Yummy!
Then you take the pumpkin and you carve it,
You carve it, you carve it, carve it, carve it.

Next you take the spices and you mix it,
You mix it, you mix it, mix it, mix it.

You put it in the oven and you wait,
You wait, you wait, you wait, you wait.

You bite it, you bite it, bite it, bite it
And you chew it, you chew it, chew it, chew it, chew it. (Sing like your mouth is full)
