Lyrics

Spoken intro:
Caller: What time is it? Response A: It’s time to get out, yeah
Response B: It’s time to get out, yeah
Response A: It’s time to get out, yeah  Response ALL: M’bote!*

It’s time to get out in the morning, and see the sun is shinin’
C’mon and get out in the morning, and tell the world you’re here
It’s time to get out in the morning, and hear the birds sweet singin’
C’mon and get out everybody everywhere
(x2)

Solo or small group:
You gotta know it’s life – filled with joy and with sorrow
That driving in your car is not the master plan
It’s time to get out and find – yourself a hiking trail
C’mon and get out, put your feet down upon this bountiful land

It’s not in the things we acquire, it’s not all about the toys
You could join a neighborhood choir and create a joyful – noise!

(Spoken intro)

It’s time to get out and find – the love that’s inside you
C’mon and get out cuz ya know – ain’t got a minute to spare
It’s time to take the hand of whoever’s beside you
C’mon and get out everybody and show the world you care
(x2)

It’s not in the things that bore us, it’s not all about the toys
You could join Wholehearted Chorus and create a joyful – noise
