about

This is the original version of the song.

lyrics

Chorus:
Well it's a foot-stomping rope-swinging barrel of fun
There's something in a book for everyone
To make your heart pound faster and your eyes pop out
It'll get you so riled up you just got to shout
That the hero of the story is the one you want to be
I love hanging out with heroes at the library!

She's a talented arachnid; she can read and write.
Her very best friend nearly lost his life.
She was a super spinner, but she wasn't very strong,
so she used her brain to save her friend from harm.
This spider is a hero of stupendous quality!
I love hanging round with Charlotte at the library!

(Chorus)

He's the reason all the criminals in Idaville
can be found downtown at the county jail.
Put a quarter on his can, he'll be your private sleuth.
He always sees the clues he needs to get to the truth,
and this ten-year-old detective really loves to read.
Uncover Encyclopedia Brown at the library!

(Chorus)

He's a noble-hearted canine and an old cowhand.
He gets no appreciation for protecting his land.
As the head of ranch security his life's on the line.
Sneaking up and jumping on a porcupine.
When something goes awry, he's the cowdog to thank.
Trackin' trouble at the library with good ol' Hank!

(Chorus)

She was swept away from her Kansas home
to a very strange land where she felt all alone.
She took the Yellow Brick Road to seek a wizard's help.
She made three new friends and caused a witch to melt.
And I'll bet you if you ask old Dorothy,
She'd say there's really no place like the library.

(Chorus)

Now if your looking for me let me tell you where I'll be
I'll be hanging out with heroes at the library
I just gotta shout about it from the top of every tree
I love hanging out with heroes at the library!
