Opening song (Won't You Be My Neighbor?)

• Mister Rogers: It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,

  A beautiful day for a neighbor.

  Would you be mine? Could you be mine?

  It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood.

  A neighborly day for a beauty.

  Would you be mine? Could you be mine?

  I have always wanted to have a neighbor.

  Just like you.

  I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood,

  With you.

  So let's make the most for this beautiful day.

  Since we're together, we might as well say,

  "Would you be mine? Could you be mine?

  "Won't you be my neighbor?".

  Won't you please? Won't you please?

  Please won't you be my neighbor?

Mister Rogers: [as his grandson was about touch Trolley control switch] Uh, that doesn't make it work. Unless it's on the track.

Closing song

All Episodes

Mister Rogers: [singing] It's such a good feeling.

To know you're alive,

It's such a happy feeling.

You're growing inside,

That when you wake up and ready to say,

"I think I make a snappy new day!".

[By that line --on the first verse-- Fred Rogers snaps his fingers. That is, after he sings the last phrase of the first verse, "I think I make a snappy new day!".]

Monday through Friday Episodes

Mister Rogers: [singing] It's such a good feeling.

A very good feeling.

The feeling you know that I'll be back,

When the day is new. [On Monday through Thursday episodes, he used "day". But it was "week" for Friday episodes.]

And I will have more ideas for you.

Then you have things you want to talk about.

I will too.

Weekend Episodes

Mister Rogers: [singing] It's such a good feeling.

A very good feeling.

The feeling you know that we're friends.

Usual show closing

Mister Rogers: You make each day a special day. You know how? By just your being you. There's only one person in this whole world like you. And that's you. And people can like you just/exactly as you are. I'll be back next time. Bye-bye!
