The two men walked on the moon for hours They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study They dug up dirt to bring back They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft
Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off the moon They joined Michael Collins in the spaceship that wait for them above the moon Then they were off on their long trip back to earth
