Proud to Be a Librarian

To the tune of “Proud to be an American “

If tomorrow I was stuck at work
I can’t imagine that
I’d be afraid to take them on
’Cause I’m a tough old bat

I worked real hard to now become
The person whom you see
’Cause I’m the sort who says both “R”s
When pronouncing “library”

And I’m proud to be a librarian
Where the books I loan are free
And I’m grateful to my Aunt Lucille
Who got this job for me
And I’d gladly stand and SHUSH! you all
If you have too loud a say,
And the penalty is fifty cents
If your books aren’t back today.
