Long Version[]
Get yourself ready for a trip to McDonaldland,
Take along a friend, and grab a hold of Ronald's hand.
Follow Ronald McDonald through the land of Apple Pie Trees,
And don't be surprised if you meet Big Mac and McCheese
There's thick shake volcanoes
You'll even find a french fry thatch
Now just turn around, and see if you won't find a hamburger patch
As you're heading for...for McDonalds.
In McDonaldland at McDonalds (x2)
Short Version[]
Ronald's gonna take you on a trip through McDonaldland
There's thick shake volcanoes
You'll even find a french fry thatch
Now just turn around, and see if you won't find a hamburger patch

In McDonaldland at McDonalds
Short Version[]
A 30 second version of the original advert also exists, which cuts out the segments with the Apple Pie Trees and Big Mac & McCheese from the longer commercial, and shortens the McDonaldland Melody, giving it a different tune.
