We got some work to do now
Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?
We need some help for you now
Come on Scooby Doo, I see you
Pretending you got a sliver
But you're not fooling me
'Cause I can see, the way you shake and shiver
You know we got a mystery to solve
So Scooby Doo be ready for your act, don't hold back
Scooby Doo if you come through

Scooby Dooby Doo, here are you
You're ready and you're willing
If we can count on you Scooby Dooby,
I know we'll catch that villian
