In the golden sand
Near the shining sea
A little turtle
Feeling lost and free
But as she crawls
She finds a plight
Stuck in the sand
Unable to take flight
Little turtle, don't you fear
Help is coming, we are near
With gentle hands and hearts so kind
We'll help you find the sea
Where you belong to unwind
With shells on her back
She tries to roam
But the sand is deep
And she's far from home
The waves call out
A distant song
But she's trapped in the sand
It feels so wrong
Little turtle, don't you fear
Help is coming, we are near
With gentle hands and hearts so kind
We'll help you find the sea
Where you belong to unwind
With teamwork and love
We'll set her free
With every effort
She'll soon be at sea
Together we'll dig
With all our might
To save this turtle
And make things right
Little turtle, don't you fear
Help is coming, we are near
With gentle hands
And hearts so kind
We'll help you find the sea
Where you belong to unwind
With a final push
The sand gives way
And the little turtle
Sees the ocean spray
With a grateful heart
She heads for the blue
Thanks to friends like us
She made it through
