Early on a February morning arrived a very
Mellow and healthy little guy
New-born to Seth and Lil,
A brother to big girl Willa,
Welcome a new star in our sky
Say Hello to Oliver Beau.
Where will you go? We'd all like to know.
Oh, you make the future look so bright,
Turn your face up to the light
Say hello to Oliver Beau

On wintry days so dark and cold,
It warms the hearts of young and old
To hear the news of a miracle so near.
A ray of hope for this old earth,
How swell to celebrate the birth
Of a brand-new baby boy who's joined us here
Say Hello to Oliver Beau.
What will you be? We can't wait to see.
Oh, you make the future look so bright,
Turn your face up to the light
Say hello to Oliver Beau
Hello, hello to Oliver Beau!

Of all your cousins coast-to-coast,
EE and Arthur are easternmost
Then Miles and Max and Beckett and MJ
Are out there on the western shore,
They'll be your friends forevermore
A family is never far away
Say Hello to Oliver Beau. What will you do?
We’re cheering for you.
Oh, you make the future look so bright,
Turn your face up to the light
Say hello to Oliver Beau.
Say Hello to Oliver Beau. Where will you go?
We'd all like to know.
Oh, you make the future look so bright,
Turn your face up to the light
Say hello to Oliver Beau.
Say hello to Oliver Beau.
