Anson Williams, best known for starring on the beloved sitcom “Happy Days,” just released an adorable “corona sing-a-long” for children.

William, who played Warren “Potsie” Weber on “Happy Days,” rerecorded his hit song “Pump Your Blood” to “I’m Gonna Wash My Hands” in order to cheer people up throughout COVID-19.

“Children today are scared and anxious about the coronavirus so I suggested to Jimmy Dunne, the award-winning songsmith and creator of ‘Pump Your Blood,’ to write new words to the song… with a cool video,” the 70-year-old star told Fox News. “[This can] empower kids to protect themselves in a fun, effective way. So ‘I’m Gonna Wash My Hands’ was born. Please share and help protect our fabulous kids!”

Williams originally sang “Pump Your Blood” on “Happy Days” in the 1970s, but it has stood the test of time and is even still played in classrooms today to help children learn about anatomy.

“Many moons ago I sang a song on ‘Happy Days’ titled ‘Pump Your Blood’ that became a sensation around the world,” he recalled. “Even today it’s played in thousands of classrooms helping students learn anatomy.”

“None of us would have guessed that the song would take on its own life as the award-winning, long-running commercial for St. Joseph’s Aspirin, The American Heart Association theme and millions of grade school to college kids making a myriad of videos to follow Potsie’s entertaining footsteps to remember the circulatory system,” Williams added.

William has been working overtime to help his fans through the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier this month, he teamed up with his “Happy Days” costar Donnie Most to try and bring families together as they socially isolate. The longtime friends have created a YouTube comedy series called “Harvest Time,” in which they play brothers. In the show, Williams plays a man on dialysis who desperately needs a kidney transplant. His brother, portrayed by Most, promises to give him one, until he gets a better offer on eBay!

“We are in an unsettling and isolating time in our world right now; people are seeking comfort in familiar faces and turning to on-demand entertainment to take a break from the 24/7 COVID-19 news cycle,” the show’s executive producer David Levin said in a statement. “Since there is a halt on the production of most shows and sporting events, we thought fans would appreciate seeing this material from beloved actors.”

“We have a little entertainment we thought we would share with you,” said Most, 66. “Anson and I got together for the first time since ‘Happy Days’ to shoot this wonderful film.”

“We want to wish you a safe time during this unusual period, and we wanted to do something special,” added Williams. “Hey, we’re all stuck at home, so we thought now would be a good time to share it. It’s kind of a nice April Fool’s day gift for our fans. I think you’re gonna love it.”

Williams looks back fondly on his time on “Happy Days,” and though it’s been almost forty years since the show ended, he said the cast is still close.

“Our relationship is excellent,” he recently said. “I don’t see Ron [Howard] as much because he’s always all over, but we’re in contact. Henry Winkler, we’re in contact. Don Most, he’s 15 minutes away from me. All of us have stayed very, very close. We’re always a phone call away.”
