People, Places, and Patterns: Geography Puts the Pieces Together


Everyone sing along with me.
Sing as one, one big family.
We may be different not knowing each other by name.
Every person in the world is so much the same.
Geography is people, People is geography from the land to the sea.
We are part of a great big puzzle.
Putting the pieces together, you and me.

Each country is a special place.
So unique to the Human Race.
The clothes we wear, and how we say hello
Is quite different above the Equator and below.
Geography is places, Places is geography no matter where you are.
North or South, East or West, near or far.

CHORUS:
Geography is: People, Places, and Patterns,
Geography puts the pieces together.
People, Places, and Patterns,
Geography shows you where it's at.
Geography is: People, Places, and Patterns,
Geography puts the pieces together.
People, Places, and Patterns,
Geography shows you where it's at.

There is a pattern on how we live and what we do.
A world of different regions made for me and you.
Every region shapes the way we all live.
The way we share the world and the way we give.
Geography is patterns, Patterns is Geography
wherever one may go.
Mountains, deserts, towns, cities, and population growth.....

(Chorus)

G-E-O, G-R-A, P-H-Y
People, Places and Patterns: Geography puts the pieces together,
G-E-O, G-R-A, P-H-Y
People, Places and Patterns, Geography puts the pieces together.
People, Places and Patterns, Geography puts the pieces together.
People, Places and Patterns: Geography shows you where it's at!
