Aba Daba Honeymoon Arthur Fields and Walter Donovan Songs .
‘Way down in the Congoland Well, you should have heard that band
Lived a happy chimpanzee Play upon their wedding day
She loved a monkey with a long tail Each Chimp and Monkey had nutshells
Lordy, how she loved him Lordy, how they played them

Each night he would find her there And now it is ev’ry night
Swinging in the coconut tree High up in the coconut tree
And the Monkey gay, at the break of day It’s the same old thing, with the same old swing
Loved to hear his Chimpie say When the Monk and Chimpie sing

Chorus: Chorus
“Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,”
Said the Chimpie to the Monk One night they were made man and wife
“Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,” And now they cry, “This is the life.”
Said the Monkey to the Chimp Since they came from their aba, daba honeymoon

All night long they’d chatter away


All day long they were happy and gay
Swinging and singing
In their honky, tonky way

“Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,”


Means “Monk, I love but you.”
“Bada, daba, dab,” in monkey-talk
Means “Chimp, I love you too.”

Then the big baboon, one night in June


He married them, and very soon
They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon

Tune: Auld Lang Syne

The fish it never cackles ‘bout


Its million eggs or so
The hen is quite a different bird

The fish we spurn, but crown the hen
Which leads me to surmise
Don’t hide your light, but blow your horn
It pays to advertise

Tune: After the Ball

Outside the hall

After the Ball Songs .
A little maiden climbed an old man’s knee
Begged for a story, “Do, uncle, please
Why are you single; why live alone?
Have you no babies, have you no home?”
“I had a sweetheart, years, years ago
Where she is now, pet, you will soon know
Listen to the story, I’ll tell it all
I believed her faithless, after the ball.”

Chorus:
After the ball is over
After the break of morn
After the dancer’s leaving
After the stars are gone
Many a heart is aching
If you could read them all
Many the hopes that have vanish’d
After the ball

Bright lights were flashing in the grand ballroom


Softly the music, playing sweet tunes
There came my sweetheart, my love, my own
“I wish some water; leave me alone.”
When I returned, dear, there stood a man
Kissing my sweetheart, as lovers can
Down fell the glass, pet, broken that’s all
Just as my heart was, after the ball

Chorus

Long years have passed, child. I’ve never wed


True to my lost love, though she is dead
She tried to tell me, tried to explain
I would not listen, pleadings were vain
One day a letter came from that man
He was her brother, the letter ran
That’s why I’m lonely, not home at all
I broke her heart after the ball

Ain’t Gonna Rain No More #2 Songs .
Alternate Version A peanut sat on a railroad track
Oh! the night was dark and dreary Its heart was all a-flutter
The air was full of sleet Along came a choo-choo train
The old man stood out in the storm Toot, toot! Peanut butter!
His shoes were full of feet
Oh, a man lay down by a sewer
Chorus, after each stanza: And by a sewer he died
Oh, it ain’t gonna rain no more, no more Now, at the coroner’s request
It ain’t gonna rain no more They called it sewer-side
How in the heck can I wash my neck
If it ain’t gonna rain no more A golf ball sailin’ thru the air
Whizzed by a man a hummin’
I woke up Sunday morning and looked up on the wall He heard a caddy holler, “Fore!”
The fleas and bedbugs were playing a game of ball An’ he thought three more were comin’
The score was 3 to nothing, the bedbugs were ahead
The fleas hit a home run and knock me out of bed “The way to tell the twins apart”
The proud father said
Oh! Mosquito he fly high “I put my finger in Willie’s mouth
Mosquito he fly low If he bites it, then it’s Ned.”
If old man ‘Skeeta light on me
He ain’t gonna fly no mo’ When boating, never quarrel
For you’ll find, without a doubt
Oh, the butterfly flits on wings of gold A boat is not the proper place
The June-bug wings of flame To have a falling out
The Bed-bug has no wings at all
But he gets there just the same “The coffee is exhausted, Sir.”
The diner was advised
Here’s to the chigger who’s not any bigger Says he, “It’s been so weak of late
That the head of a very small pin I’m really not surprised.”
But the lump that it raises itches like the blazes
And that’s where the rub comes in There’s a gal up in the hills
She’s awfully shy and meek
Saw a black-and-white animal in the woods She undresses in the dark
Say ain’t that little cat pretty Because the mountains peak
Went right over to pick it up
But it wasn’t that kind of kitty The rich man drives a Cadillac
The poor man drives a Ford
When Mr. Noah built the Ark But my old man drives down the road
He said it was his duty Between four wheels and a board
He saved the birds and beasts and bugs
But why did he save the cootie? Mary had a little lamb
She fed it castor oil
Oh, of all the fishes in the sea And everywhere that little lamb went
My favorite is the bass It fertilized the soil
He climbs up in the seaweed trees
And slides down on his hands and knees

And he wobbles and he gobbles
And he’s absolutely mine

Is so happy in his bed

All God’s Critters Songs .
Chorus:
All God’s critters got a place in their choir
Some sing low, some sing higher
Some sing out loud on the telephone wire
And some just clap their hands or paws
Or anything they got

Listen to the bass, it’s the one on the bottom


Where the bullfrog croaks and the hippopotamus
Moans and groans with a big to-do
The old cow just goes moo

The dog and the cat pick up the middle


While the honey bee hums and the cricket fiddles
The donkey brays and the pony neighs
And the old coyote howls

Chorus

Listen to the top where the little birds sing


On the melody with the high note ringing
The hoot owl hollers over everything
And the jaybird disagrees

Singin’ in the night-time, singin’ in the day


Little duck quacks, and he’s on his way
The possum ain’t got much to say
And the porcupine talks to himself

Chorus

It’s a simple song of livin’ sung everywhere


By the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear
Grumpy alligator and the hawks above
Sly raccoon and the turtle dove

See my two front teeth!
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas

Gosh, oh gee, how happy I’d be

They are playing on an ice patch


They are jumping in the sea
All the penguins are together
Having fun so playfully

There are big ones, there are small ones


And then some are in between
But they’re having fun together
Where the air is cold and clean

When they walk they kind of waddle


Back and forth from side to side
Playing in the cold Antarctic
They would never come inside

It is in that cold Antarctic


That’s the land that they call home
Full of snow and icy water
From that cold they will not roam

Visions of delight revealing
Breathes a pure and holy feeling

Amazing Grace Songs .
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear


And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Through many dangers, toils and snares


I have already come
‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home

The Lord has promised good to me


His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail


And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace

When we’ve been there ten thousand years


Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’ve first begun

Gosh, oh gee, but I have fun He reminds me of a lion
Swallowing animals one by one
Chorus
In every bowl of soup I see
Lions and tigers watching me The grocer is so big and fat
I make ‘em jump right through a hoop He has a big moustache
Those animal crackers in my soup He looks just like a walrus
Just before he takes a splash
Chorus
Chorus
When I get hold of the big bad wolf
I just push him under to drown
Then I bite him in a million bits
And I gobble him right down

Chorus

When they’re inside me where it’s dark


I walk around like Noah’s Arc
I stuff my tummy like a goop
With animal crackers in my soup

Animal Fair Songs .
I went to the animal fair
The birds and the beasts were there
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair

You should have seen the monk


He sat on the elephant’s trunk
The elephant sneezed and fell on his knees
And what became of the monk, the monk, the monk?

As I Walked Out in the Streets of Laredo Songs .
As I walked out in the streets of Laredo
As I walked out in Laredo one day
I spied a poor cowboy wrapped up in white linen
Wrapped up in white linen and cold as the clay

“I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy,”


These words he did say as I boldly stepped by
“Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
I was shot in the breast and I know I must die.”

“Let sixteen gamblers come handle my coffin


Let sixteen cowboys come sing me a song
Take me to the graveyard and lay a sod o’er me
For I’m a poor cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong.”

“It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing


It was once in the saddle I used to go gay
’Twas first to drinking and then to card playing
Got shot in the breast, I am dying today.”

“Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin


Get six pretty girls to carry my pall
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin
Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall.”

“O beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly


And play the dead march as you carry me along
Take me to the green valley and lay the sod o’er me
For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong.”

We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly


And bitterly wept as we bore him along
For we all loved our comrade, so brave, young
and handsome
We all loved our comrade although he’d done wrong

Ash Grove, The Songs .
Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander
When twilight is fading I pensively rove
Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander
Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove

‘Tis there where the blackbird is cheerfully singing


Each warbler enchants with his notes from the tree
Ah, then little think I of sorrow or sadness
The ash grove entrancing spells beauty for me

Alternate Version

The ash grove, how graceful, how plainly ‘tis speaking


The harp through it playing as language for me
Wherever the light through its branches is breaking
I see the kind faces of friends, of friends dear to me

The friends of my childhood again are before me


Each step brings a mem’ry as freely I roam
With soft whispers speaking, its leaves rustle near me
The ash grove, the ash grove alone is my home

Oh, bring back my spaceship to me, to me
Bring back, bring back

Developed a cramp in my muscles
So I thought I would walk in the sky

The ship was controlled from the ground
And someone in charge down at NASA
Forgot I was walking around

Said my pajamas and I put on my prayers
Turned off the bed and jumped into the light

Polished up an egg and I toasted the news
Buttered my tie and took another bite
All because you kissed me (kiss) good night

I powered my hair and pinned up my nose


I hung up my bath and turned on my clothes
I put out the clock and wound the cat up tight
All because you kissed me (kiss) good night

I ran up the shade and pulled down the stair


Curled the rug and vacuumed my hair
Just couldn’t tell my left foot from my right
All because you kissed me, never could resist me
All because you kissed me (kiss) good night

Backyard Campout Songs .
Tune: Are You Sleeping?

We are sleeping in the backyard


Jim and Mark, Spot and me
Sure is dark outside
Think I’d like to hid
Come here, Spot, sleep with me

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping


Jim and Mark, Jim and Mark?
Thought I heard a noise
Didn’t sound like boys
I am scared, I am scared

Come back, Spot, where’d you go?


Jim and Mark, wake up please
Let’s go in the house
Did you see that mouse?
Hear that sneeze? I am scared

Backyard Treasures Songs .
Tune: Clementine

In the backyard, there are treasures


There are treasures all around
If I look hard in my back yard
All the treasures can be found

Found some pine cones and an ant hill


And a toad all squashed and dead
I can hide them in my pocket
And I’ll keep them ’neath my bed

Momma found them in my pocket


So she yelled and screamed and cried
“You can keep those rotten pine cones
But can’t keep the toad that’s dead.”

So I took them to the backyard


To her flower bed to rest
I’m so glad she didn’t find that
Beetle hidden in her desk

Bailiff’s Daughter of Islington Songs .
There was a youth, and a well beloved youth “I prythee, sweetheart, tell to me
And he was a squire’s son O tell whether you know
He lov’d the bailiff’s daughter dear The bailiff’s daughter of Islington?”
That liv’d in Islington “She’s dead, sir, long ago.”

Yet she was coy, and would not believe “If she be dead, then take my horse
That he did love her so My saddle and bridle also
No, nor at anytime would she For I will into some far country
Any countenance to him show Where no man shall me know.”

But when his friends did understand “O stay, o stay, thou goodly youth
His fond and foolish mind She standeth by thy side
They sent him up to fair London She is here alive, she is not dead
An apprentice for to bind And ready to be thy bride.”

And when he had been seven long years “Oh farewell grief, and welcome joy
And never his love could see Ten thousand times therefore
“Many a tear have I shed for her sake For now I have found mine own true love
When she little thought of me.” Whom I thought I should never see more.”

Then all the maids of Islington


Went forth to sport and play
All but this bailiff’s daughter dear—
She secretly stole away

She pulled off her gown of green


And put on ragged attire
And to fair London she would go
Her true love to inquire

And as she went along the high road


The weather being hot and dry
She sat her down upon a green bank
And her true love came riding by

She started up with a color so red


Catching hold of his bridle rein
“One penny, one penny, kind sir,” she said
“Will ease me of much pain.”

“Before I give you one penny, sweetheart


Pray tell me where you were born.”
“At Islington, kind sir,” she said
“Where I’ve had many a scorn.”

Ballad of the Green Berets Barry Sadler Songs .
Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret

Silver wings upon their chests


These are men, America’s best
One hundred men we’ll test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Trained to live off nature’s land


Trained in combat, hand to hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage take from the Green Beret

Silver wings upon their chests


These are men, America’s best
One hundred men we’ll test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Back at home a young wife waits


Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her this last request

Put silver wings on my son’s chest


Make him one of America’s best
He’ll be a man they’ll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret

Bare Necessities Songs .
Look for the bare necessities So just try and relax, yeah cool it
The simple bare necessities Fall apart in my backyard
Forget about your worries and your strife ‘Cause let me tell you something little britches
I mean the bare necessities If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
Old Mother Nature’s recipes You’re working too hard
That brings the bare necessities of life
And don’t spend your time lookin’ around
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam For something you want that can’t be found
I couldn’t be fonder of my big home When you find out you can live without it
The bees are buzzin’ in the tree And go along not thinkin’ about it
To make some honey just for me I’ll tell you something true
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants The bare necessities of life will come to you
Then maybe try a few
Reprise
The bare necessities of life will come to you Look for the bare necessities
They’ll come to you! The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
Look for the bare necessities I mean the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities Old Mother Nature’s recipes
Forget about your worries and your strife With just the bare necessities of life
I mean the bare necessities
That’s why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life

Now when you pick a pawpaw


Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don’t pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don’t need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?

The bare necessities of life will come to you


They’ll come to you!

I would like to sail the ocean blue Chorus:
Barges, have you treasure in your hold? Barges, I would like to go with you
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold? I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, have you treasure in your hold?
Out of my window looking in the night Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
I can see the barges’ flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea Out of my window looking in the night
And the barges, too, go silently I can see the barges’ flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea
Chorus And the barges, too, go silently

Out of my window looking in the night Chorus


I can see the barges’ flickering light
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges far ahead I can see the barges’ flickering light
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red
Chorus I can see them signaling far ahead

Out of my window looking in the night Chorus


I can see the lighthouse flickering light
Far ahead the lighthouse casts its glow Away from my window looking in the night
Oh, I wonder where the barges go I will watch till they are out of sight
Carrying their cargoes far across the sea
Chorus How I wish that some day they’d take me

How my heart longs to be with you Chorus


And to sail across the ocean blue
But I must stay by the window clear How my heart wants to fly away with you
As I watch you sail away from here As I watch you sail the ocean blue
But I must stay beside my window clear
Chorus As I watch you sail away from here

Sleep my baby, sleep, my dearie

Close, white lids, your dear eyes over
Mother’s arms shall be your nest

And this is what the Girl Scout said Found a spider sleeping in his bed
Girl Scout said And this is what the Boy Scout said
Boy Scout said
“Beetle, beetle, go away
Go away Scream.
In my bed you cannot stay
Cannot stay
Remember what the camp instructor said Note:
Only one body in a bed The scream should sound like a girl’s scream.
In a bed.”

Once a beetle went to camp


Went to camp
Went to camp without a lamp
Without a lamp
Found a Girl Scout sleeping in the bed
And this is what the beetle said
Beetle said

“Girl Scout, Girl Scout, go away


Go away
In my bed you cannot stay
Cannot stay
Remember what the camp instructor said
Only one body in a bed
In a bed.”

Bicycle Built for Two Daisy, Daisy Songs .
There is a flower I will stand by you
Within my heart In ‘wheel’ or woe
Daisy, Daisy! Daisy, Daisy!
Planted one day You’ll be the bell(e)
By a glancing dart Which I’ll ring you know!
Planted by Daisy Bell! Sweet little Daisy Bell!
Whether she loves me You’ll take the ‘lead’
Or loves me not In each ‘trip’ we take
Sometimes it’s hard to tell Then if I don’t do well
Yet I am longing to share the lot— I will permit you to
Of beautiful Daisy Bell! Use the brake
My beautiful Daisy Bell!
Daisy, Daisy
Give me your answer do!
I’m half crazy Alternate Version
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage Daisy, Daisy
I can’t afford a carriage Give me your answer do
But you’ll look sweet upon the seat I’m half crazy
Of a bicycle made for two All for the love of you
It won’t be a stylish marriage
We will go ‘tandem’ I can’t afford a carriage
As man and wife But you’ll look sweet
Daisy, Daisy! Upon the seat
‘Peddling’ away Of a bicycle built for two
Down the road of life
I and my Daisy Bell! Michael, Michael
When the road’s dark Here is your answer true
We can both despise I’ll not cycle
P’licemen and ‘lamps’ as well Over the world with you
There are ‘bright lights’ If you can’t afford a carriage
In the dazzling eyes There won’t be any marriage
Of beautiful Daisy Bell! ‘Cause I’ll be d***ed
If I’ll be crammed
Daisy, Daisy On a bicycle built for two!
Give me your answer do!
I’m half crazy
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage
I can’t afford a carriage
But you’ll look sweet upon the seat

Big Rock Candy Mountain, The Songs .
On a summer day in the month of May
A burly bum came hiking
Down a shady lane, through the sugar cane
He was looking for his liking

As he roamed along he sang a song


Of the land of milk and honey
Where a bum can stay for many a day
And he won’t need any money

Chorus:
Oh! The buzzin’ of the bees in the
Cigarette Trees
Near the Soda Water Fountain
At the Lemonade Springs
Where the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain

Gave him a whack, not a smack but a whack
And tied him to, not one but to
The railroad track

The whistle blew, not red but blew!


The train grew nigh, not far but nigh
Bill Grogan’s goat, not a billy but a goat
Was doomed to die, not live but die

He gave three groans, not moans but groans


Of awful pain, not joy but pain
Coughed up those shirts, not socks but shirts
And flagged the train, not a plane but a train!

Billboard Song Songs .
As I was walking down the street
One dark and dreary day
I chanced upon a billboard
And much to my dismay
The sign was torn and tattered
From the storm the night before
The wind and rain had done its job
And this is what I saw

“Smoke Coca-Cola Cigarettes—


Chew Wrigley’s spearmint beer
Kennel Ration Dog food
Keeps your wife’s complexion clear
Simonize your baby
With a Hershey’s candy bar
And Texaco’s the beauty cream
That’s used by all the stars!

So take your next vacation


In a brand new Fridgidare
Learn to play piano
In your grandma’s underwear—
Doctors say that babies
Should smoke until they are three
And people over 65
Should bathe in Lipton tea

Slowly.
In flow-through tea bags.”

Bird Song Appalachian Songs .
Hi, says the blackbird, sitting on a chair
Once I courted a lady fair
She proved fickle and turned her back
And ever since then I’ve dressed in black

Hi, says the blue jay as she flew


If I was a young man I’d have two
If one proved fickle and chanced for to go
I’d have a new string to my bow

Hi, says the little leather-winged bat


I will tell you the reason that
The reason that I fly at night
Is because I lost my heart’s delight

Hi, says the woodpecker, sitting on a fence


Once I courted a handsome wench
She proved fickle and from me fled
And ever since then my head’s been red

Hi, says the hawk unto the crow


If you ain’t black then I don’t know
Ever since old Adam was born
You’ve been accused of stealing corn

Hi, says the robin with a little squirm


I wish I had a great big worm
I would fly away into my nest
I have a wife I think the best

Body Machine Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
When you look down the street, what do you see? In the stomach they do what they do
The street is overflowing with a lot of machines They take out nutrition and use it for you
Now I don’t mean the buses, the trucks or cars And the cellulose, in those leaves you know
I’m talking about the people Will control the traffic flow
Yeah, you know who they are Helps the food to move along so the good stays in
And the bad gets goin’
I’m a machine, you’re a machine
Everybody that you know I’m a machine, you’re a machine
You know, they are machines Everybody that you know
To keep your engine running you need energy You know, they are machines
For your high-powered, revved-up body machine To keep your engine running you need energy
Your high-powered, revved-up body machine For your high-powered, revved-up body machine
Your high-powered, revved-up body machine
Now I’d be a fool, if I said that the fuel that
We needed to burn was gasoline Then the small intestine does most of your digesting
Because the fuel we use is the stuff called food By sending all the nutrients
And it puts out the power for our machine In through the villi
You make a stop at the filling station Which look a little silli
“Fill ‘er up! One chicken sandwich to go!” But act as little vents
As you start to chew The bloodstream passes; the nutrients it catches
Your body does it. All systems go! And takes them to the cells you see
You use what it delivers
Now that sandwich contains some very important kinds And store some in the liver
of food energy for your body. The chicken gives you For future energy
protein; bread, carbohydrates; mayonnaise, fat; and the
lettuce has vitamins, plus cellulose (or roughage) I’m a machine, you’re a machine
Together these things help keep your body machine Everybody that you know
running smoothly. You know, they are machines
To keep your engine running you need energy
First the saliva, kind of like a driver For your high-powered, revved-up body machine
“Move to the rear of the mouth!” Your high-powered, revved-up body machine
But what it’s doing Your high-powered, revved-up body machine
Along with teeth chewing High-powered, revved-up, complicated tune-up
Is taking food and breaking it down Fascinating body machine

Down to the stomach Take care of that machine


The food is pushed, the esophagus does its stuff You got such a great model there, honey!
(gulp, gulp) Give it the right fuel
And the stomach starts High protein, low calorie
Look at those moving parts Take it out for a spin every day!
As the body machine churns up
Gastric juices operate on proteins

Boo! Boo! Boo! What Will We Do? Bob Tucker Songs .
Tune: Up on the Rooftop

All through the town floats monsters’ breath


Screams of horror, hints of death
Down all the streets come the girls and boys
All dressed up for their haunting joys

Boo! Boo! Boo! What will we do?


Boo! Boo! Boo! What will we do? Ooo
Try to enjoy this scary scene
And just relax, ‘cause it’s Halloween!

Witches and goblins now fill the air


Spiders crawl across your hair!
And every place that you try to hide
Soon there’s a ghostie there by your side

Boo! Boo! Boo! What will we do?


Boo! Boo! Boo! What will we do? Ooo
Try to enjoy this scary scene
And just relax, ‘cause it’s Halloween!

There is a chill about this night


Your head starts ting-a-ling with fright
In jack-o-lanterns’ eerie glow
The vampires now start swooping low

Boo! Boo! Boo! What will we do?

A monkey stepped on an elephant’s toe
The elephant said with a tear in his eye
Why don’t you pick on someone your own size?

The horsey slipped and fell on the flea
Oh, said the flea, there’s a horsey on me

Here’s the story of a lovely lady
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls
All of them had hair of gold, like their mother
The youngest one in curls

Here’s the story, of a man named Brady


Who was busy with three boys of his own
They were four men, living all together
Yet they were all alone

Till the one day when the lady met this fellow
And they knew that it was much more than a hunch
That this group would somehow form a family
That’s the way we all became the Brady Bunch

Bug Bites and P.I. Sassy’s Song • Kathy Thomas DeMint Songs .
Through bug bites and P.I.
We’ve fought our way here
To this campfire that’s wavering
Through our heartaches and tears
We’ve hiked through the woodlands
Together at dawn
And at this time tomorrow
Separate ways we’ll be gone

The serenity of vespers


The dining hall fun
The CITs at the singing tree
In the rays of the sun
Watching the flag rise
In the wet morning dew
All this reminds us of the times
Shared with you

Through bug juice and cookies


We’ve all grown so close
Camp’s brought us together
With the friends we love most
So join hands in singing
At the end of this day
In hopes that next summer
We’ll be back this way

Like a forever picture


The lights on the lake
Are etched in our memories
With the friends that we make
Our camping is over
With the coming of dawn
And all that we’ve learned here
We will share and pass on

[Repeat first verse]

Bug Juice Songs .
Tune: On Top of Old Smokey

At camp with the Girl Scouts


They gave us a drink
We thought it was Koolaid
Because it was pink

But the thing that they told us


Would have grossed out a moose
For that good tasting pink drink
Was really bug juice

It looked fresh and fruity


Like tasty Koolaid
But the bugs that were in it
Were murdered with Raid

We drank by the gallons


We drank by the ton
But then the next morning
We all had the runs

Next time you drink bug juice


And a fly drives you mad
He’s just getting even
Because you swallowed his dad

Busy Prepositions Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Like a butterfly, or a like bee Though little words they are
Like and ant, as busy as can be They never stand alone
These little words we call the “busy P’s” Gathering words behind them
Prepositions You soon will see how they have grown
Nine or ten of them Into a parade; a prepositional phrase
Do most all of the work With a noun, or at least a pronoun, bringing up the rear
Of, on, to, with, in, from A little phrase of two or three or four or more words
By, for, at, over, across
And many others do their jobs Prepositions! Attention! Forward! March!
Which is simply to connect Busy prepositions
Their noun or pronoun object Always on the march
To some other word in the sentence. Like a horde of solider ants
Inching bravely forward on the slimmest chance
Busy p’s That they might better their positions
If you please Busy, busy prepositions
“On the top is where you are!” In the air, on the ground, everywhere
Top relates to where you are
“With a friend you’ll travel far!” The sun sank lower in the west
With a friend you’ll go “In the west it sank.”
“If you try you know that you can fly And it will rise in the morning
Over the rainbow!” And will bring the light of day
Over the rainbow is where you can fly We say the sun comes up in the east every day!
“In the east it rises.”
Busy prepositions
Always on the go Busy prepositions
Like a bunch of busy bees Busy, busy, busy!
Floating pollen on the breeze On the top is where you are!
Buzzing over the meadows On the top
Beyond the forest If you try you know that you can fly!
Through the trees Fly where?
In to the beehive Over the rainbow
Busy, busy P’s
In, to, beyond, over, on, through!

Busy prepositions always out in front


On the edges, in the crack
‘Round the corner, from the back
In between the action
Stating clearly to your satisfaction
The location and direction
Prepositions give specific information

Idly I passed one day
So strong its stream’s enchantment

I dried me ‘neath an oak tree
Hid by its green array
Long years I now have lov’d you

Caissons Go Rolling Along Major Edmund L. Gruber Songs .
Over hill, over dale, we have hit the dusty trail
And those caissons go rolling along
In and out, hear them shout:
“Counter march and right about!”
And those caissons go rolling along

Then it’s hi! Hi! Heee! In the field artillery
Sound off your numbers loud and strong
Where’er you go, you will always know
That those caissons are rolling along
Keep them rolling!

Through the storm, through the night


Up to where the doughboys fight
All our caissons go rolling along
At zero we’ll be there, answering every call and flare
While our caissons go rolling along

Cavalry, boot to boot, we will join in the pursuit


While those caissons go rolling along
Action front, at a trot
Volley fire with shell and shot
While those caissons go rolling along

Chorus

Should the foe penetrate, every gunner lies in wait


And those caissons go rolling along
Fire at will, lay ‘em low
Never stop for any foe
While those caissons go rolling along

Chorus

But if fate me should call, and in action I should fall


Keep those caissons a-rolling along
Then in peace I’ll abide
When I take my final ride
On a caisson that’s rolling along

Camp Counselor Song Songs .
Tune: Mr. Sandman

Camp director, bring us a dream


Please bring us children who never scream
Please make them listen and make them polite
And put them right to sleep when we turn out the light

Camp director, I’m never alone


Ain’t got no bedroom to call my own
So please turn on your flashlight beam
Camp director, bring us a dream

Camp director, I’ve had enough


I’m going crazy, I need a day off
We’ve had two tick bites and lots of mosquitoes
And I can’t get these kids to change their clothes

Camp director, one wet the bed


Another one’s sick with a pain in her head
One’s got poison ivy, one wants to go home
And this one’s hair really needs a comb

Camp director (yessssss)


The tents are a mess
These kids are horrors and they want my address
I’d send them all home if I could
But they love it here in the woods

Camp Granada Songs .
Hello Mudda, hello Fadda
Here I am at Camp Granada
Camp is very entertaining
And they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining

I went hiking with Joe Spivey


He developed poison ivy
You remember Leonard Skinner
He got food poisoning last night after dinner

All the counselors hate the waiters


And the lake has alligators
And the head coach wants no sissies
So he reads to us from something called “Ulysses.”

Now I don’t want this should scare ya


But my bunk mate has malaria
You remember Jeffrey Hardy
They’re about to organize a searching party

Take me home, oh, Mudda, Fadda


Take me home, I hate Granada!
Don’t leave me in the forest where
I might get eaten by a bear

Take me home, I promise I will not make noise


Or mess the house with other boys
Oh, please don’t make me stay
I’ve been here one whole day

Dearest Father, darling Mother


How’s my precious little brother?
Let me come home if you miss me
I would even let Aunt Bertha hug and kiss me

Wait a minute, it stopped hailing


Guys are swimming, gals are sailing
Playing baseball, gee that’s betta
Mudda, Fadda, kindly disregard this letter!

Camp Kookamonga Songs .
In 19 and 89 Well, they ran through the briars
We took a little hike And they ran through the brambles
With our Scoutmaster And they ran through the bushes
Down to Lake A-Nik-A-Nike Where a rabbit couldn’t go
We took a little pizza They ran so fast
And some sauerkraut Even we couldn’t catch ‘em
And we marched along together From Lake A-Nik-A-Nike
‘Til we heard the Girl Scouts All the way to Buffalo

We’re the boys from Camp Kookamonga We ran right after them
Our mothers’ sent us here ‘Till everyone was pooped
For to study nature’s ways So we rested for a minute
We learned to make sparks And our forces we regrouped
By rubbin’ sticks together And then we saw the girls
But, if we catch the Girl Scouts Behind some evergreens
We’ll set the woods a blaze Captured by a company
Of United States Marines
Well, we crept up to the water
And we see’d the girls a swimmin’ We’re the boys from Camp Kookamonga
There must of been a hundred Our mothers’ sent us here
Of them pretty young wimmin For to study nature’s ways
They looked so fine We learned to make sparks
Even birds forgot to sing By rubbin’ sticks together
We laid down in the poison oak But, if we catch the Girl Scouts
And didn’t say a thing We’ll set the woods a blaze

We’re the boys from Camp Kookamonga Well, they ran through the briars

Tune: Down in the Valley

Let us all stand now — time we must go


Silently leaving — thoughts let us know
Thoughts let us know, thoughts let us know
Silently leaving — thoughts let us know

Watch the fire flicker — the last of the flame


But as we leave you — your friendship we claim
Your friendship we claim, yes, your friendship we claim
But as we leave you — your friendship we claim

Watch the red embers — a memory of light


We carry it with us, to show us the right
To show us the right, yes, to show us the right
We carry it with us — to show us the right

Watch the hot ashes — once it was wood


Has changed through service — a blessing that’s good
A blessing that’s good, yes, a blessing that’s good
Has changed through service — a blessing that’s good

Watch the fire dying — but when it is dead


Always the memory — will lead us ahead
Will lead us ahead, yes, will lead us ahead
Always the memory — will lead us ahead

Campfire Song Songs .
If I live to be nearly a hundred
And every year one of joy
I wonder if I shall remember
The times when as a boy
I sat by the campfire at Pemi
With a group of the nation’s best
As the moon drifted low o’er the hillside
And finally dropped in the West
And I wonder if anyone’s better
For anything I’ve done or said
And whether good will of the heart
May offset mistakes of the head
And perhaps when life’s memories are gathered
The camp ones will be with the rest
As the moon drifts low o’er the hillside
And finally drops in the West

Note:
This is a lovely song in 3/4 time and beloved by the
campers of Camp Pemigewasset.

I’m campin’ in the rain


Just campin’ in the rain
The tent and campfire are soggy again
The clouds in the sky are making me cry
My waterlogged shoes may never get dry

All the mud in the place is stuck on my face


The frogs and the turtles are starting to race
Oh, what should I do? I need a canoe
A webbed-footed weasel swam off with my shoe

I’m campin’ in the rain


Just campin’ in the rain
The good doctor said I’ve got water on the brain
I can’t light the fire. I’m stuck in the mire
The lightning just knocked down the telephone wire

I’m drownin’ in the rain


Just drownin’ in the rain
Won’t it please stop raining — I hate to complain
My sleeping bag’s wet. I’m starting to fret
My life jacket wasn’t the thing to forget

I’m campin’ in the rain


Just campin’ in the rain
What a glorious feeling!
Someone just plugged the drain
The precipitate will now dissapate
The sun soon will dry up the puddle I hate

There’ll be no more campin’ in the rain

Fell in love with a fair young dame—
And ev’ry night by the pale moonlight

Oh, a hug and a kiss for a Zulu miss

And ev’ry night by the pale moonlight


And it sounded like this to me

Barrumph ti di a die aye—

Chorus:
Nothing could be finer than to be
in Carolina in the morning
No one could be sweeter than my sweetie
when I meet her in the morning

Where the morning glories


Wind around the door
Whispering pretty stories
I long to hear once more

Strolling with my girlie where the dew


is pearly early in the morning
Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each little
buttercup at dawning

If I had Aladdin’s lamp for only a day


I’d make a wish, and here’s what I’d say
Nothing could be finer than to be
in Carolina in the morning

Wishing is good time wasted


Still it’s a habit, they say
Wishing for sweets I’ve tasted
That’s all I do all day
Maybe there’s nothing in wishing
But speaking of wishing, I’ll say

Chorus

Dreaming was meant for nighttime


I live in dreams all the day
I know it’s not the right time
But still I dream away
What could be sweeter than dreaming
Just dreaming and drifting away?

Day after day in the field of yellow corn
No place on earth do I love more sincerely
Than old Virginny, she’s the state where I was born

Carry me back to old Virginny


There let me live until I wither and decay
Long by the old Dismal Swamp have I wandered
There’s where my old weary life will pass away

Master and Mistress have long gone before me

There we’ll be happy and free from all sorrow
There’s where we’ll meet and will never part no more

Cat Came Back Songs .
Old man Johnson had troubles of his own Alternate Version
Had a little cat that wouldn’t leave him alone
He tried and tried to give him away Now old Mr. Johnson had troubles all his own
He gave him to a man going far, far away He had a yellow cat that wouldn’t leave home
Chorus: Tried everything he knew to get the cat to stay away
But the cat came back, the very next day Even took him up to Canada and told him for to stay
But the cat came back Chorus:
They thought he was a goner But the cat came back, the very next day
But the cat came back They thought he was a goner
He just couldn’t stay away, away, away But the cat came back
He gave it to a man going up in a balloon Cause he wouldn’t stay away
Told him to give it to the man in the moon Well they gave a boy a dollar for to set the cat afloat
The ballon came down about 20 miles away And he took him up the river in a sack and a boat
And where that man is we just can’t say Now the fishing, it was fine until the news got around
Chorus That the boat was missing and the boy was drowned

He gave him to a boy with a dollar note Chorus


Told him to take up the river in a boat Well, the farmer on the corner said he’d shoot him on sight
Tied a rock round its neck must have weighed And he loaded up his gun full of rocks and dynamite
a hundred pounds The gun went off, heard all over town
And now they’re dredging the river Little pieces of the man was all that they found
for the little boy who drowned
Chorus
Chorus
Now they gave him to a man going up in a balloon
He gave him to a man going way, way out west And they told him for to leave him with the man in the moon
Told him to give it to the one he favored best The balloon it busted, back to earth did head
First the train jumped track, then it hit the rail Seven miles away they picked the man up dead
And no one is alive today to tell the gruesome tale
Chorus
Chorus
Well, they finally found a way for this cat to fix
Old man Johnson said he’d shoot that cat on sight They put him in an orange crate on Route 66
So he loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite Come a ten-ton truck with a 20-ton load
He waited and waited for that cat to come around Scattered pieces of the orange crate down the road
But ninety seven pieces of the man were all they ever found
Chorus
Chorus
Well, they took him to the shop where the meat was ground
The H-bomb fell just the other day And they dropped him in the hopper when the butcher
The A-bomb fell in the very same way wasn’t round
Russia went, China went, and the USA Well, the cat disappeared with a blood-curdling shriek
The human race was destroyed without a chance to pray And the town’s meat tasted furry for a week
Chorus Chorus
And from Cape Canaveral they put him into place
Shot him in a rocket going way out in space
They finally thought the cat was out of human reach
Next day they got a call from Miami Beach

Who are struggling just to live
Light the light and do our share
Reach out your hand and someone’s there, and
I believe, together, we change the world

Cheerful Loser Songs .
All year long, young and strong, faithful I labored
All my pay, sad to say, was a fine young blackbird
All my pay, sad to say, was a fine young blackbird
You can guess it. I confess it
Blackbirds don’t like cages
Mine flew out, there’s no doubt
Left me without wages

One more year, full of cheer, skillful and willing


Earned for me, finally, all of one good shilling
Earned for me, finally, all of one good shilling
But my pocket, who could lock it?
It is really funny
Shilling went, mischief bent
Now I have no money

Laugh with me, jest with me, I’m young and hearty
Work is fun, when it’s done, then will come the party
Work is fun, when it’s done, then will come the party
Let the old men and the women
Worry over treasure
I sleep well, I eat well
Life is full of pleasure

Our love and toil in years to be
When we are grown and take our place

That they may build from age to age
An undefiled heritage

That, in our time, Thy grace may give
The truth whereby the nations live

Teach us to rule ourselves always


Controlled and cleanly night and day
That we may bring if need arise
No maimed or worthless sacrifice

Teach us to look in all our ends


On Thee for judge and not our friends
That we, with Thee, may walk uncowed
By fear or favor of the crowd

Teach us the strength that cannot seek


By deed or thought, to hurt the weak
That, under Thee, we may possess
Man’s strength to comfort man’s distress

Teach us delight in simple things


And mirth that has no bitter springs
Forgiveness free of evil done
And love to all men ‘neath the sun

For whose dear sake our fathers died
O Motherland, we pledge to Thee

Chocolate chip cookies, you gotta have more

Or buy ‘em at the store
But whatever you do
Have ‘em ready at my door

You put ‘em in the oven about a quarter hour
But the thing that gives them their magic power
Is the chocolate chips inside

You can’t eat one, you can’t eat two


Once you start chewing, there’s nothing to do
But clean your plate, and eat the crumbs too
Then go and find some more

Give me a book, a fire, and someone that brings me

Church’s One Foundation Samuel J. Stone Songs .
The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ, her Lord
She is his new creation
By water and the Word

From heaven he came and sought her


To be his holy bride
With his own blood he bought her
And for her life he died

Elect from every nation


Yet one over all the earth
Her charter of salvation
One Lord, one faith, one birth

One holy name she blesses


Partakes one holy food
And to one hope she presses
With every grace endued

Through toil and tribulation


And tumult of her war
She waits the consummation
Of peace forevermore

Till with the vision glorious


Her longing eyes are blest
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest

Yet she on earth has union


With God, the Three in One
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won

O blessed heavenly chorus!


Lord, save us by your grace
That we, like saints before us
May see you face to face

Coming of the Frogs Songs .
Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic I used to like the bullfrogs
like to feel their slimy skin
Liked to put them in my teacher’s desk and
Mine eyes have seen the horror of the take them home again
coming of the frogs Now they’re knocking at the front door
They are sneaking through the swamps I can’t let those frogs come in
they are lurking under logs The frogs keep hopping on
You can hear their mournful croaking
through the early morning fog Chorus
The frogs keep hopping on
They’ve hopped into the living room
Chorus: and headed down the hall
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, croak, croak They’ve have trapped me in the corner
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, croak, croak and my back’s against the wall
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, croak, croak And when I opened up my mouth
The frogs keep hopping on to give a warning call
This was all I heard
The frogs have grown in numbers and
their croaking fills the air Chorus
There’s no place to escape to ‘cause
the frogs are everywhere
They’ve eaten all the flies and now
they’re hungry as a bear
The frogs keep hopping on

Commercial Songs .
Tune: Farmer in the Dell

Last night I watched TV


I saw my favorite show
I heard this strange commercial
And this is how it goes

Feed your dog Chiffon


Comet cures a cold
Use SOS pads on your face to keep
From looking old

Mop your floor with Crest


Use Crisco on your tile
Clean your teeth with Borateen
It leaves a shining smile

For headaches take some Certs


Use Tide to clean your face
And do shampoo with Elmer’s Glue
It holds your hair in place

Perhaps I am confused
I might not have it right
But one thing that I’m certain of
I’ll watch TV tonight

Or at least say “please”
“And”
That’s an additive, like “this and that” Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
“But” Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
That’s sort of the opposite In complex sentences like
“Not this but that”

“This or that” Conjunction Junction, how’s that function?

Hooking up two boxcars and making ‘em run right I’m going to get you there if you’re very careful
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?
Hey that’s nice! I’m going to get you there if you’re very careful
Dirty but happy, digging and scratching
Losing your shoe and a button or two
He’s poor but honest, sad but true
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Conjunction Junction, what’s your function?


Hooking up two cars to one
When you say something like this choice:
“Either now or later”
Or no choice
“Neither now nor ever”
Hey that’s clever!
Eat this or that, grow thin or fat
Never mind, I wouldn’t do that
I’m fat enough now!

Then the drinks are on the house

For after some consideration we can state
Consider yourself one of us

extended to look like rabbit ears, and move hand
from one side to the other in “hopping” motion
Frightened as could be
Cross arms across chest and twist from side to side

Happy we will be
Stroke one hand with the other

Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get the feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Roll on, roll on, let nothing dim your vision
Roll on forever to ever new frontiers

Way out west, where the bad men are
And the only thing to guide them is the evening star
There’s the roughest, toughest many by far
He’s Ragtime Cowboy Joe

He always sings, ragtime music to his cattle as he swings


Back and forth on the saddle of his horse
Pretty good horse
A syncopated gaiter
And there’s such a funny meter to the roar
of his repeater, who they run
Cause the western folks all know—
What do they know?

He’s a high falootin, rootin’, tootin’


Son-of-a-gun from Arizona

Just try an’ walk around ‘em
You could miss ‘em if
You tried —

Workin’ in a stable
Scoop ‘em if yer able
Do a dude a favor

His boots are armadillo
If he steps in one he surely
Would die —

So, scoop ‘em up, shovel ‘em up


Rake ‘em up, pick ‘em up

May you always have stars in your eyes

To build on when you’re glad
Or when your world’s been torn apart
A dream is something all your own
That no one else can steal
A dream is for you to make real

You can share your money
With any beggar on the street
But you can only share your dreams
When love sets you free
Why don’t you share yours with me?

And if you want to be a Daisy
This is what you do . . .

You come to a meeting


You have a lot of fun
You do arts and crafts
And you clean up when you’re done

We learn a lot of new things


We make a lot of new friends
We love being Daisies
And we’re sad when it ends!

Daisy’s Pearls Songs .
Tune: On My Honor

Whatever happened to Daisy’s pearls?


They were sold one day for Daisy’s girls
And since that day they can be found
A glowin’ from Girl Scouts the world around

The price she paid was a string of pearls


To keep us going — we are Daisy’s girls
There are millions of pearls cast around the earth
And a bushel of diamonds can’t match their worth

And which of us have some of her pearls?


And which of us give for Daisy’s girls?
And who among us share that glow?
Every Girl Scout leader the world shall know

We are Girl Scout leaders, we carry those pearls


We are Girl Scout leaders, some of Daisy’s girls
And we’ll cherish her gesture and cherish her pearls
And pass them on to more of her girls

Dakota Hymn Songs .
Many and great, O God, are Thy things
Make of earth and sky
Thy hands have sewn the heavens with stars
Thy fingers spread the mountains and plains
Lo, at Thy word the waters were formed
Deep sea obey Thy voice

Grant unto us communion with Thee


Thou star abiding One
Come unto us and dwell with us
With Thee are found the gifts of life
Bless us with life that has no end
Eternal life with Thee

Days of Girl Scouting Songs .
Tune: Turnaround

Days of Girl Scouting will fly away, die away


Days of pure friendship will be memories
We have loved, we have learned
Let us now teach in turn
That the flame we have kindled
Forever will burn

All of our footsteps will fade away, fade away


Others will follow the paths we trod
With our songs full of joy
And our hearts full of love
We will keep the flame burning
For those yet to come

Dear Lord and Father Songs .
Dear Lord and Father of mankind
Forgive our foolish ways
Reclothe us in our rightful mind
In purer lives Thy service find
In deeper reverence, praise

In simple trust like theirs who heard


Beside the Syrian sea
The gracious calling of the Lord
Let us, like them, without a word
Rise up and follow Thee

O sabbath rest by Galilee


O calm of hills above
Where Jesus knelt to share with Thee
The silence of eternity
Interpreted by love

Drop Thy still dews of quietness


Till all our strivings cease
Take from our souls the strain and stress
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of thy peace

Breathe through the heats of our desire


Thy coolness and Thy balm
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire
O still, small voice of calm

Of the north woods I have trod
The rocky shores and blue lakes

Mem’ries renewed while sitting ‘round the fire
These are the things which in my heart abide
The wondrous beauty of them all will be my guide

Desperado Songs .
There was a desperado from the wild and wooly West
He rode into Chicago just to give the West a rest
He wore a big sombrero and two pistols at his side
And everywhere he went, he gave his war whoop

Chorus:
Oh, what a big bold man was this desperado
From Cripple Creek, way down in Colorado
And he horsed around like a big tornado
And everywhere he went he gave his war whoop

He went to Coney Island just to take in all the sights


He saw the hootchie kootchie and the girls
all dressed in tights
It got him so excited that he shot out all the lights
And everywhere he went he gave his war whoop

Chorus

A big old policeman came a-stomping down the street


He saw that desperado just a-strollin’ down the street
He took him by the collar and he took him by the seat
And put him where he couldn’t give his war whoop

Dollars and Sense Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Becky-Sue: Becky Sue and Banker:
You know, I love country music Gotta get me some dollars and sense
And I practice daily on my out o’ tune Dollars and sense
coc-a-mamie ukulele Them green-back bills with the pictures of the Presidents
But my daily ukulele playin’ ain’t gonna get me far
I need a guitar, an amp, and some quadraphonics Becky-Sue:
And several hundred dollars’ worth of electronics So please, Mister Banker, won’t you tell me how
If I’m ever gonna get to be a country western star! I can get my mitts on some money right now?
‘Cause waitin’ for my dollars really doesn’t seem
Gotta get me some dollars and sense to make much sense
Dollars and sense
Them green-back bills with the pictures of the Presidents Banker:
Why sure, Becky-Sue, I can give you a hand
Banker: I can lend you the money, but you must understand
Now, I hear you squawkin’, Miss Becky-Sue When you borrow from the bank
Why don’t you drop by the bank and I’ll explain to you Then you gotta pay it back on time
How you can make more dollars if you use And when you’re done payin’ back every dollar
a little common sense that’s due
Chill out, young lady, no need to fret You will find you paid ‘em back a little extra too
Although you can’t afford to get that For every dollar you borrow
new equipment yet You gotta pay the bank a dollar and a dime!
You got a couple hundred bucks saved up Again that’s interest; and it’s just a fee you pay
in your birthday stash To use the money that you borrow from me
Why not deposit them dollars in the bank instead?
Then at the end of the year you’ll come out way ahead Becky Sue and Banker:
Because the bank’ll pay you money in exchange We’re talkin’ ‘bout dollars and sense
for the use of your cash! Dollars and sense
And that’s called interest; you’re makin’ money that way Them green-back bills with the pictures of the Presidents
And you can buy that gear about a year from today
Since life is one experience that spares us no expense
Becky-Sue: Gotta use them dollars with a little bit
Savin’ sounds pretty nifty, Mister Banker Dude of common sense
You know I’d like to be thrifty, but I ain’t in the mood We gotta use them dollars with a little bit
I’m inspired and I’m writin’ me a brand new country song of common sense
I got a lot o’ country western in my blood Are you sure Dolly Parton started this way?
Like Reba and Loretta and Winona Judd
Gotta get me that equipment
And I ain’t about to wait too long!

Don Gato Songs .
Oh, Señor Don Gato was a cat But in spite of everything they tried
On a high, red, roof Don Gato sat Poor Señor Don Gato up and died
He was there to read a letter Oh, it wasn’t very merry
Meow, meow, meow Meow, meow, meow
Where the reading light was better Going to the cemetery
Meow, meow, meow Meow, meow, meow
For the ending of Don Gato
‘Twas a love note for Don Gato
“I adore you,” wrote the lady cat As the funeral passed the market square
Who was fluffy white and nice and fat Such a smell of fish was in the air!
There was not a sweeter kitty As the smell of fish created
Meow, meow, meow Meow, meow, meow
In the country or the city He became reanimated
Meow, meow, meow Meow, meow, meow
And she said she’d wed Don Gato He came back to life, Don Gato!

Oh, Don Gato jumped so happily! Olé!


Then fell off the roof and broke his knee
Broke his ribs and all his whiskers
Meow, meow, meow
And his little Solar plexus
Meow, meow, meow
“Aye Carumba!” cried Don Gato

Oh, the doctors they came on the run


Just to see if something could be done
And they held a consultation
Meow, meow, meow
About how to save their patient
Meow, meow, meow
How to save Señor Don Gato

Doughnut Song Songs .
Tune: Turkey in the Straw

Oh! I went into the city


And I walked around the block
And I walked right into a baker shop
I picked up a doughnut right out of the grease
And I handed the lady a five-cent piece
She looked at the nickel
And she looked at me
Said she, “This nickel’s no good to me
There’s a hole in the middle and it’s all the way through.”
Said I, “There’s a hole in your doughnut, too!”

Alternate Version

I went to Cincinnati and I walked around the block

There’s a hole in the middle
and it’s all the way through.”
Says I, “There’s a hole in the doughnut, too!
Thanks for the doughnut, good-bye.”

Downtown Petula Clark Songs .
When you’re alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go—downtown
When you’ve got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know—downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there


You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, things’ll be great when you’re
Downtown—no finer place, for sure
Downtown—everything’s waiting for you

Don’t hang around and let your problems surround you


There are movie shows—downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close—downtown
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You’ll be dancing with him too before the night is over
Happy again

The lights are much brighter there


You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown—waiting for you tonight
Downtown—you’re gonna be all right now

And you may find somebody kind to help


and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So maybe I’ll see you there


We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
So go downtown, things’ll be great when you’re
Downtown—don’t wait a minute for
Downtown—everything’s waiting for you

Drill, Ye Tarriers, Drill! Thomas Casey Songs .

There were twenty tarriers a working at the rock
And the boss comes along, and he says, kape still
And come down heavy on the cast iron drill
And drill, ye tarriers, drill!

Chorus:
Drill, ye tarriers, drill!
It’s work all day for sugar in your tay
Down behind of the railway
And drill, ye tarriers, drill
And blast and fire!

The boss was a fine man down to the ground


And he married a lady six feet round
She baked good bread and she baked it well
But she baked it hard as the holes in hell
And drill, ye tarriers, drill!

Chorus

The new foreman was Jean McCann


By God, he was a blame mean man
Last week a premature blast went off
And a mile in the air went big Jim Goff
And drill, ye tarriers, drill!

Chorus

When the next pay day came round


Jim Goff a dollar short was found
When he asked, “What for?” came this reply
“You’re docked for the time you was up in the sky.”
And drill, ye tarriers, drill!

And I will pledge with mine
Or leave a kiss but in the cup
And I’ll not look for wine
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
Doth ask a drink divine
But might I of Jove’s nectar sup
I would not change for thine

I sent thee late a rosy wreath


Not so much hon’ring thee
As giving a hope, a hope that there
It could not wither’d be
But thou there on dist only breathe
And send’st it back to me
Since when it smells, I swear
Not of itself, but thee

Tune: Old Dunderbeck

There was a man named Dunderbeck


invented a machine
For grinding things to sausage meat
and it was run by steam
Now kitchen cats and long-tailed rats
will never more be seen
They’ll all be ground to sausage meat
in Dunderbeck’s machine

Oh Dunderbeck, oh Dunderbeck
how could you be so mean
To ever have invented the sausage meat

One day a little fat boy came walking in the store


He bought a pound of sausage and
laid them on the floor
Then he began to whistle, he whistled up a tune
The sausages, they jumped, they barked
they danced ‘round the room

Chorus

One day the thing got busted


the darn thing wouldn’t go
And Dunderbeck, he crawled inside
to see what made it so
His wife, she had a nightmare
she was walking in her sleep
She gave a yank and turned the crank
and Dunderbeck was meat

I pass this shoe from me to you, to you
I pass this shoe and do just what I do

they place on the floor in front of them. On each beat
of the song (pass, shoe, you, you, pass, shoe), pick up
the shoe in front of you and plonk it down in front of
your neighbor—the sound of the shoe hitting the floor
should be on the beat.

This works until the end—at “do just what I do” pick
up the shoe in front of you and KEEP HOLD OF IT.
On the first “do” tap it on the floor to your right, on
“what” tap it on the floor to your left and on the final
“do” tap it to the right again.

Elbow Room Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
One thing you will discover The trappers, traders, and the peddlers
When you get next to one another The politicians, and the settlers
Is everybody needs some elbow room, elbow room They got there by any way they could
Any way they could
It’s nice when you’re kinda cozy, but The Gold Rush trampled down the wilderness
Not when you’re tangled nose to nosey, oh The railroads spread across from east to west
Everybody needs some elbow And soon the West was opened up for —
needs a little elbow room opened up for good

That’s how it was in the early days of the U.S.A. And now we jet from east to west
The people kept coming to settle though Good-bye New York, hello L.A.
The east was the only place there was to go But it took those early folks to open up the way

The president was Thomas Jefferson Now we’ve got a lot of room to be
He made a deal with Napoleon Growing from sea to shining sea
How’d you like to sell a mile or two Guess that we have got our elbow room
Or three, or a hundred, or a thousand? Elbow room
But if there should ever come a time
And so, in 1803 the Louisiana Territory was sold to us When we’re crowded up together
Without a fuss I'm sure we’ll find some elbow room . . .
And gave us lots of elbow room up on the moon!

Oh, elbow room, elbow room Oh, elbow room, elbow room
Got to, got to get us some elbow room Got to, got to get us some elbow room
It’s the west or bust It’s the moon or bust
In God we trust In God we trust
There’s a new land out there . . . There’s a new land up there!
Lewis and Clark volunteered to go
Good-bye, good luck, wear your overcoat!
They prepared for good times and for bad Note:
And for bad This is about America’s Westward Expansion.
They hired Sacajawea to be their guide
She led them all across the countryside
Reached the coast
And found the most
Elbow room we’ve ever had

The way was opened up for folks with bravery


There were plenty of fights
To win land rights
But the West was meant to be
It was our Manifest Destiny!

Turn that generator by any means Powerful stuff, so watch that plug! It’s potent
You’re making uh . . . Electricity, Electricity! Electricity, Electricity

A generator is a machine that contains a powerful
magnet that creates a magnetic field. When wires are
rotated rapidly through this field, then a current of
electricity is produced.

Now, if we only had a superhero who could stand here


and turn the generator real fast, then we wouldn’t need
to burn so much fuel to make . . . electricity.

Benjamin Franklin flying his kite

Elementary, My Dear Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Forty days and forty nights Now, if you want to multiply two times 174
Didn’t it rain, children Or some big number like that
Not a speck of land in sight Two times 174 equals two times 100 plus two times
Didn’t it, didn’t it rain 70 plus two times 4
But Noah built the ark so tight That’s all
They sailed on, children So two times 174 equals 200 plus 140 plus 8
And when at last the waters receded . . . or 348
And the dove brought back the olive tree leaf It’s elementary!

Energy Blues Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Yawn! Energy . . . We’re looking to try and
find some new kinds
Energy . . . Energy . . . Exploring to try and make a new find
Sometimes I think I’m runnin’ out of energy Nuclear and thermal and solar
Seems like we use an awful lot for If we miss we’ll get colder and colder
Heatin’ and lightin’ and drivin’ Energy . . . We’ve gotta stop usin’ you up
Readin’ and writin’ and jivin’
Energy . . . You’d think we’d be savin’ it up So don’t be cross when momma says turn
that extra light out
Energy . . . You can get it by dammin’ up a river Just turn it off till we find us a fuel that never runs out
Energy . . . A windmill can make the breeze deliver If everyone tries a bit harder
But even with millin’ and dammin’ Our fuel will go farther and farther
Our needs are so much more demanding Energy . . . We’re gonna be stretchin’ you out
For energy . . . We have to use some kind of fuel

Chop, chop, chop, the cavemen used wood


to start their fires
Chop, chop, chop, they made all
the tools that they required
Chop, chop, chop, inventions got more
and more inspired
The fires got higher and higher
And clearings got wider and wider
Energy . . . They were burnin’ ‘bout all their wood up

Then one day men discovered that


coal would do it better
Miners dug, and it looked like it might just last forever
It seemed like the final solution
It started the Industrial Revolution
Energy . . . We could just keep on diggin’ it up.

Now in 1859 — way out in western Pennsylvania


A man had built a rig that got some laughs
from folks who came there
But suddenly, a mighty roar came up from
under the ground
And soon a gusher, gushin’ oil,
soaked all who stood around
Now no-one knew, when that gusher blew
The petroleum years were on us
Or that so many cars and trucks would come
to cause a crisis

Fifteen years on the Erie Canal

Filled with lumber, coal and hay
And ev’ry inch of the way we know
From Albany to Buffalo

Low bridge, ev’rybody down!
Low bridge, for we’re goin’ through a town!
And you’ll always know your neighbor
You’ll always know your pal
If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal

Fifteen years on the Erie Canal
‘Cause you bet your life I wouldn’t part with Sal

We’ll make Rome ‘bout six o’clock
Just one more trip and then we’ll go
Right back home to Buffalo

And it was deeply laden with pretty things for me
There were raisins in the cabin
And almonds in the hold
The sails were made of satin
And the mast it was of gold

The four-and-twenty sailors


That stood between the decks
Were four-and-twenty white mice
With rings about their necks
The captain was a duck, a duck
With a jacket on his back
And when this fairy ship set sail
The captain, he said, “Quack.”

Far Northland Carol Preston Songs .
It’s the far northland that’s a calling me away
as take I with my pack sack to the road
It’s the call on me of the forest in the north
as step I with the sunlight for my load

It’s the flash of paddle blades a gleaming in the sun


of canoes softly skimming by the shore
It’s the tang of pine and bracken coming on the breeze
that calls me to the water ways once more

By Lake Duncan and Clearwater to Bearskin I will go


where you see the loon and hear his plaintive wail
If you’re thinking in your inner heart
there’s swagger in my step
you’ve never been along the border trail
It’s the far northland that’s a calling me away
as take I with my pack sack to the road

Figure Eight Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Figure eight as double four
Figure four as half of eight
If you skate, you would be great
If you could make a figure eight
That’s a circle that turns ‘round upon itself

One times eight is two times four


Four times four is two times eight
If you skate upon thin ice
You’d be wise if you looked twice
Before you made another single move

One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16


Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32
And five times eight is 40, you know

Six times eight is 48, seven times eight is 56


Eight times eight is 64, nine times eight is 72
And ten times eight is 80, that’s true

Eleven times eight is 88, and twelve times eight is 96


Now, here’s a chance to get off
On your new math tricks
‘Cause twelve times eight is the same as
Ten times eight plus two times eight
80 plus 16 . . . ninety-six!

One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16


Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32
And five times eight is 40, you know

Figure eight as double four


Figure four as half of eight
If you skate, you would be great
If you could make a figure eight
That’s a circle that turns ‘round upon itself

Place it on its side and it’s a symbol meaning

Fireworks Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Ooh, there’s gonna be fireworks Ooh, when England heard the news
Fireworks! Kerpow!
On the Fourth of July They blew their stack
Red, white, and blue! They really blew their cool!
Red, white, and blue fireworks But the colonies lit the fuse
Like diamonds in the sky There’d be no turning back
Diamonds in the sky! No turnin’ back!
We’re gonna shoot the entire works on fireworks They’d had enough of injustice now
That really show, oh yeah But even if it really hurts, oh yeah
We declared our liberty 200 years ago If you don’t give us our freedom now
Yeah! You’re gonna see some fireworks!

In 1776 And on the Fourth of July they signed it


Fireworks! And 56 names underlined it
There were fireworks too And now to honor those first 13 states
Red, white, and blue! We turn the sky into a birthday cake
The original colonists They got it done
You know their tempers blew Oh, yes they did!
They really blew! The Declaration, uh-huh-huh
Like Thomas Paine once wrote The Declaration of Independence
It’s only common sense Oh, yeah!
Only common sense In seventeen hundred seventy six
That if a government won’t give you your basic rights Right on!
You’d better get another government The Continental Congress said that we were free
We’re free!
And though some people tried to fight it Said we had the right of life and liberty . . .
Well, a committee was formed to write it And the pursuit of happiness!
Benjamin Franklin, Philip Livingston
John Adams, Roger Sherman, Thomas Jefferson We hold these truths to be self-evident
They got it done That all men are created equal
Oh, yes they did! And that they are endowed by their creator
The Declaration, uh-huh-huh With certain inalienable rights
The Declaration of Independence That among these are life, liberty
Oh, yeah! and the pursuit of happiness.
In seventeen hundred seventy six
Right on! And if there’s one thing that makes me happy
The Continental Congress said that we were free Then you know that it’s
We’re free! Ooh
Said we had the right of life and liberty . . . There’s gonna be fireworks!
And the pursuit of happiness!

Note:
This is about the Declaration of Independence.

Chorus:
Oh, there was a little fly
Who flew into a store
He pooped upon the ceiling
And he pooped upon the floor
He pooped upon the bacon
And he pooped upon the ham
And he pooped upon the head
Of the little grocery man!

Oh, the little grocery man


He got himself a gun
He swore he’d get that fly
Before the day was done
But before he could count
From one to ten
That fly came down and pooped upon
The grocery man again!

Chorus

Now the little grocery man


Had a little grocery wife
They knew they’d get that fly
If it meant their only life
So, they bought themselves a cannon
And they hid inside the store
And they blew themselves to blazes
As the fly flew out the door!

Chorus

Oh, they found themselves in heaven


Outside the pearly gates
St. Peter said, “No matter
For now you’ll be repaid.”
They got their angel wings
And they flew into the sky
And they both swooped down like buzzards
And they pooped upon the fly!

Flying Purple People Eater Songs .
Well, I saw the thing comin’ out of the sky Well, bless my soul, rock and roll flyin’ purple people eater
It had the one long horn, one big eye Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin’ purple peopleeater
I commenced to shakin’ and I said “ooh-eee” Flyin’ little people eater
It looks like a purple people eater to me Sure looks strange to me
Purple people?
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater And then he went on his way, and then what do you know
A one-eyed one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater I saw him last night on a TV show
Sure looks strange to me He was blowing it out, a really knockin’ em dead
One eye? Playin’ rock and roll music through the horn in his head
Tequila
Well, he came down to earth and lit in a tree
I said, “Mr. Purple People Eater, don’t eat me.”
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
“I wouldn’t eat you, cuz you’re so tough.”

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater


One-eyed, one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
A one-eyed one-horned, flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me
One horn?

I said, “Mr. Purple People Eater, what’s your line?”


He said, “It’s eatin’ purple people and it sure is fine
But that’s not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band.”

Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flying purple people eater
Pidgeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin’ purple people eater
We wear short shorts
Flyin’ purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me

And then he swung from the tree and lit on the ground.
He started to rock, really rockin’ around
It was a crazy little ditty with a swingin’ tune

Partners stand facing each other, on beat 1 (four), both
slap own thighs. On 2, they clap own hands; 3, clap
right hand with partner; 4, own hands; 5, partner's left
hand; 6, own hands; 7, both hands with partner; 8,
own hands. The whole sequence is repeated every eight
beats. Singers can form groups of four with couple one,
facing each other, starting the claps on 1 as above. To
avoid mid-air collisions, couple two, facing each other
across couple, one, begin the sequence on the next beat
(jol.).

On the chorus, the group forms a star (all face clock-


wise with right hands clasped in the middle) and walks
in time to the music. Couple one “dip” (bend knees)
on “oh” and every third step thereafter, couple two dip
on “hey” and every third beat after that. At (*), they
reverse direction and clasp left hands in the center.

Four-Legged Zoo Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
We went to the four-legged zoo Now a coach and six, if you were Cinderella
To visit our four-footed friends Would have you home by midnight
Lions and tigers, cats and dogs If those 24 legs ran fast as lightning . . .
A goat and a cow and a couple o’ hogs Six times four equals 24 and seven times four equals 28
A rhinoceros and of course a hippopotamus Anyone knows that, who cares about seven . . .
And, oh yes, a horse!
And 8 antelope have 32 legs ‘cause
There were elk and bison, a gnu or two eight times four is 32
Giraffes and elephants, quite a few
A llama, alpaca, vicuna too Here come a small herd of buffalo
Zebras, ibexes, and one big kudu They say they’re getting extinct, you know.
It was swell. I liked the gazelle I can count nine — that’s 36 legs
Nine times four equals 36
Now Miss Simpson said . . . Here comes a baby buffalo
She teaches school, you know — That’s good! That’s ten!
Yeah, she took us there And ten times four, you know, is 40
Well, Miss Simpson said —
If we counted every head on these quadrupeds Eleven coyotes . . .
Then multiplied that number by four Eleven times four
We’d know how many feet went through the door Went slinkin’ over the prairie floor
If we turned ‘em all loose On all of their legs . . .
Oh no, don’t do that! Equals 44
It’s really a groovy zoo
But, anyway, what Miss Simpson said Now twelve times four is as high as we go . . .
It was a good chance to work on our fours in our head Twelve times four equals 48
One, two, three, four! But there were so very, very, many, many more
Animals standing there by the gate
I’ll take a lion . . .
One times four But we’d have to use a pencil if we counted them all
He’s got four legs and maybe a roar And we really had fun
Gimme two camels . . . that’s two times four And we saw every one
Eight legs walking ‘cross the desert floor A bear, a cougar, a jackal, a yak
A fox, some deer, and a sweet giraffe
A tiger and a lamb and a fat kudu
Would be three times four And I can’t remember how many, many more
Equals 12 legs too But we multiplied them all by four
But we might have to subtract And some of them thanked us with a roar
When that tiger was through!
Rowwwr!

Four four-footed friends, no matter who


Would have 16 legs, and it’s always true
That four times four equals 16
And five times four is 20

Fox Went Out One Starry Night Songs .
Tune: Keel Row

A fox went out one starry night


The moon was shining, all things bright
Ho, ho, said the fox, it’s a very fine light
For me to go to the town, o

He ran till he got to the farmer’s gate


I love you well for your master’s sake
And long to be picking your bones, o

The gray goose she ran all around the hay stack
Ho, ho, said the fox, you are very fat
You’ll grease my bones and you’ll ride on my back
From this to yonder town, o

The farmer’s wife she jumped out of bed


And out of the window she popped her head
Oh, farmer, oh, farmer, the geese are all dead
For the fox has been to the town, o

The farmer he loaded his pistol with lead


And shot the old fox right through the head
Ho, ho, said the farmer, I think you’re quite dead
And you’ll no more trouble my town, o

The farmer’s wife took the fox’s skin


And on to it sewed her Sunday pin
Ho, ho, said the farmer, a very fine thing
For you to wear to the town, o

So I thank you
I thank you God for all of my friends Friends, I will remember you

Sitting all around me, listening to my need Friends, I will remember you
A friend is always there, a friend will always care Think of you, pray for you

Frosty the Snowman Songs .
Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic in
That old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
O, Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh
And play just the same as you and me

Frosty the snowman


Knew the sun was hot that day
So he said “Let’s run and
We’ll have some fun now before I melt away.”
Down to the village with a broomstick
In his hand, running here and there
All around the square saying
“Catch me if you can!”
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler “Stop!”
For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying
“Don’t you cry
I’ll be back again some day.”

Thumpity thump thump


Thumpity thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpity thump thump thump
Thumpity thump thump
Over the hills of snow!

All went to the circus, admission one buck
Why couldn’t one get in?

Because he could pay for his seat with a bill
The frog had a green-back that paid for his ticket
But poor Mister Skunk couldn’t get through the wicket
Why couldn’t he get in?
Why couldn’t he get in?

Then in jigs the folk go swinging

Counting sleep a thing of scorn
Old he is, but not outworn
Know ye such a piper?

Round his head the birds come wheeling
Time has carols worth the stealing

Tune: Ghost Riders in the Sky

One dark and dreary day
He rested by the coop
As he went along his way
When all at once a rotten egg
Hit him in the eye
It was the sight he dreaded
Ghost chickens in the sky

Chorus:
Bok, bok, bok, bok
Bok, bok, bok, bok
Ghost chickens in the sky

The farmer has raised chickens


Since he was twenty-four
Working for the Colonel
For thirty years or more
Killing all those chickens
And sending them to fry
Now they want revenge
Ghost chickens in the sky

Chorus

Their feet were black and shiny


Their eyes were burning red
They had no meat or feathers
These chickens all were dead
They picked the farmer up
And he died by the CLAW
They cooked him EXTRA CRISPY
And ate him with cole slaw

Ghost of Anne Bolelyn Songs .
Now in the Tower of London, large as life Along the drafty corridors for miles and miles she goes
Large as life Miles she goes
The ghost of Anne Bolelyn walks, I declare She often catches cold, poor thing, it’s drafty when it blows
I declare When it blows
Now, Anne Bolelyn was once King Henry’s wife And it’s awfully awkward when she has to blow her nose
Henry’s wife Blow her nose
Until he had the axeman bob her hair With her head tucked underneath her arm
Bob her hair ‘Neath her arm
It happened many long years ago
Long years ago
But she still comes back at night to tell him so Note:
Tell him so Make paper mache ‘head’ or draw a face on an ordinary
balloon. The song leader uses this to act out the words
Chorus: as the audience sings along.
With her head tucked underneath her arm
she walks the bloody tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
at the midnight hour

Oh, once in a while King Henry gives a spread


Gives a spread
For all his pals and gals, a ghostly crew
Ghostly crew
The axeman carves the meat and cuts the bread
Cuts the bread
And in walks Anne Bolelyn to spoil the stew
Spoil the stew
She holds her head up high with a wild wa-whoop
(bloodcurdling scream)
King Henry cries, “Don’t drop it in the soup!”
In the soup

An old cowpoke went riding out And as the riders loped on by
One hot and windy day He heard them call his name
Upon a ridge he rested If you want to save your soul

When all at once a mighty herd Then cowboy you’d better change your ways
Of red-eyed cows he saw Or with us you will ride
A plowin’ through the ragged skies Trying to catch the devil’s herd
And up the cloudy draw Across the endless sky

Chorus: Chorus

Their brands were still on fire


And their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny
And their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
As they thundered through the sky
For as he saw the riders comin’ hard
He could hear their mournful cry

Chorus

Their faces were gaunt


Their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
They’re ridin’ hard to catch that herd
But they ain’t caught them yet
They’ve got to ride forevermore
On that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire
As they ride, I hear them cry

Gift of Friends Songs .
God gave me a gift of friends
Hey there, friend, please try and understand
It’s so hard to say good-bye
So let’s leave it up to Him

God gives a gift but He never takes away — a friend


Hey there, friend, wait for me
Stay there friend, let’s live eternally
And we won’t say good-bye
For He came to set us free

Hey there friend, come and walk along — with me


God gave me a gift of friends
Hey there, gift, please try and understand
It’s so hard to say good-bye
So let’s leave it up to Him

God gives a gift but He never takes away — a friend

Gilligan’s Island Theme Songs .
Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
A tale of a fateful trip
It started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship
The mate was a mighty sailing man
The skipper brave and sure
Five passengers set sail that day, for a three-hour tour
A three-hour tour

The weather started getting rough


The tiny ship was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Minnow would be lost
The Minnow would be lost
The ship struck ground on the shores
of this uncharted desert isle
With Gilligan, the skipper too
The millionaire and his wife
The movie star, the professor and Maryann
Here on Gilligan’s Isle

So this is the tale of our castaways


They’re here for a long, long time
They’ll have to make the best of things
it’s an uphill climb
The first mate and the skipper too
will do their very best
To make the others comfortable
in their tropic island nest

No phone! No boat! No motorcar!


Not a single luxury
Like Robinson Crusoe, as primitive as can be
So join us here each week my friends
you’re sure to get a smile
From seven stranded castaways
Here on Gilligan’s Isle!

Girl Can Do Anything Potomic Red Songs .
A girl can do any thing that a boy can
A girl can be fast, be brave and be tough
A girl can be smart and make up her own mind
‘Cause girls are made out of good stuff

Girls can wear dresses and they can wear pants


They can giggle and whisper and twirl when they dance
They can wear their hair up high in ribbons of pink
Be pretty and say what they think

Girls can use hammers, wrenches and pliers


They can fix tires, fix things that won’t run
They can have their own tool box and
know what they’re doing
Be proud when the job is well done

They can polish their fingers and polish their toes


Put on some lipstick and powder their nose
They can look in the mirror and like what they see
Be glad there’s a person called me

Girls can play baseball, soccer and tennis


Girls can run races and they can jump high
They can know players and follow the pro teams
And love it as much as a guy

Girls can be quiet and girls can be loud


They can be shy or love a big crowd
Girls can be friendly and open and true
And do exactly what they want to do

Girls can be heads of big corporations


They build buildings that reach to the sun
They can be home raising their children
Giving them love one by one

Girls can be teachers and scientists too


Mathematicians or cooks with a brew
They can reach for the stars ‘til they’ve had enough
‘Cause girls are made out of good stuff

We can do anything
Girls can do anything

Girl One Day, A Songs .
A girl one day, she ran away
To stay at a Girl Scout camp
Each ringlet fair, left her hair
Each curly curl went damp
And there she washed the dishes
And there she scrubbed the floors
Until one sunny day
While rowing in the bay
She fell in all the way
And she just wrote home just to say
Well I’ve got cuts on my fingers, and
Bites on my toes
Sticks and stones to sleep on
And red, red sunburned nose
But oh! dear family
I’m writing home to say
I’m having such a jolly time at
Girl Scout camp today!

There was a man
Now please take note
There was a man
He had a goat
He loved that goat
One day that goat
Felt frisky and fine
Ate three red
From off the line
The man he grabbed
It by the back
And tied it to
The railroad track
And when the train
Pulled into sight
That goat grew green
And pale with fright
It heaved a sigh
As if in pain
Coughed up those shirts
And flagged the train

Chorus

He ate burnt pizza everyday


And washes it down with glue
Then, he goes in the hall to play
And steals all of our shoes!

Owls are out
Beetles hum
Round about

Tiptoe so
Out they creep
Brownies go
Home to sleep

The things we’ve learned and the pals we’ve met

While songs and stories shared now wing their flight

You’re nowhere to be found

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer Songs .
Chorus:
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there’s no such thing as Santa
But as for me an’ Grandpa, we believe

She’d been drinking too much eggnog


And we begged her not to go
But she forgot her medication
And she staggered out the door into the snow

When we found her Christmas morning


At the scene of the attack
She had hoof prints on her forehead
And incriminating Claus marks on her back

Chorus

Now we’re all so proud of Grandpa


He’s been taking this so well
See him in there watching football
Drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel

It’s not Christmas without Grandma


All the family’s dressed in black
And we just can’t help but wonder
Should we open up her gifts or send them back?
SEND THEM BACK!!!

“Boys may whistle but girls must sing.”
That is what I heard her say
‘Twas no longer than yesterday

Boys can whistle

Boys can whistle, of course, they may


They can whistle the livelong day
Why can’t girls whistle too, pray tell
If they manage to do it well?

Gave a very good reason too
Whistling girls and crowing hens
Always come to some bad ends

Great Meat Pie Songs .
The great meat pie was a tidy size
And it took a week to make it
A day to carry it to the shop
And just a week to bake it
And if you’d seen it
I’ll be bound
Your wonder you’d scarce govern

They were forced to break the front wall down


To get it in the oven
It took full thirty sacks of flour
It’s a fact now that I utter
Three hundred pails of water, too
And a hundred tubs of butter
The crust was nearly seven feet thick
You couldn’t easily bruise it
And the rolling pin was such a size
It took ten men to use it

There were twenty-five spareribs of pork


I’m sure I’m not mistaken
With two and thirty hams for York
And twenty sides of bacon
The pie was made by fifty cooks
And all of them first raters
And then they filled up all the nooks
With a ton of kidney ‘taters

Great Melting Pot Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
My grandmother came from Russia They brought the country’s customs
A satchel on her knee Their language and their ways
My grandfather had his father’s cap They filled the factories, tilled the soil
He brought from Italy Helped build the U.S.A.

Where life might let them win Hear what she has to tell
They paid the fare to America How great to be an American
And there they melted in And something else as well

In search of honest pay
Those 19th-century immigrants sailed
To reach the U.S.A.

Greatest Show on Earth Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Introducing the greatest show on Earth The highs are nice
The Weather! They bring fair skies
Ah ha!
Welcome everyone But a low will often bring you clouds or rain
It’s the weather show! And when they bump
Bring your bathing suits They form a front
Don’t forget your boots and coats A changing of the weather in between
Folks, we guarantee the show that we perform
Is never dull, if there’s a lull As the highs and lows push and shove, the weather
It’s just the calm before the storm front begins to move! And if a front moves into town,
it means a storm may just come down!
Watch it change from icy cold to toasty warm
And rearrange from sunny days to crazy storms ACT THREE: THE HUMIDITY!
The curtain’s rising, we’re so glad to have you here!
Come see a new show daily in the atmosphere! Because of heat
Drops evaporate
ACT ONE: THE SUN! From lakes and rivers, puddles, even trees
The air can fill
The sun shines down Right to the gills
On field and town! With water vapor, that’s humidity
On forest, mountain, desert, sea and snow When clouds appear
Some heat’s absorbed Rain may be near
Some bounces off Oooohhh!
Ha ha ha! ‘Cause the vapor’s cool and starting to condense
So here it’s hot, where there it may be cold And if those drops
The heated Earth heats up the air Oooohhh!
Just like a big hot air balloon, up up it flows Begin to plop
The cooler air Plop, plop, plop!
Sneaks in below That’s precipitation, folks, you all get drenched!
It’s heated too, now look out folks, ‘cause up it goes!
That’s the weather folks
The sinking air is called a “high”, which means it has You got your money’s worth
high pressure. Low pressure air is on the rise, and as Hot or cold or soakin’ wet
they move together . . . Hey, how lucky can you get?
The weather show’s the greatest show
ACT TWO: THE WIND! The greatest show on Earth!

Those lows and highs Yes, sir!


They sink and rise
The air begins to move and flow
It circulates
At different rates

Green Latrine Songs .
Tune: Ballad of the Green Berets

Wooden seats upon the stools


And in March its kind of cool
As the wind blows through the screen
On the door of the Green Latrine

Out in back it stands alone


That little shack I call my own
Its painted drab a rustic green
That’s why its called the Green Latrine

On my bed I lie in pain


Cause outside it’s pouring rain
I gotta go but I just can’t yet
Cause I’m afraid I might get wet

In the house my husband yells


“The Green Latrine, it really smells”
I say to him “Now just relax,
An outside john cuts property tax.”

Come once again to meet me

We are the Girl Scouts helping girls
grow strong!
Taking our place where we belong in this world
There is no ocean too wide
and the highest mountain we’ll climb
For we are Girl Scouts growing strong!

Just a little skill, a place to start
Now add a dream, and we’ll make it happen
For every girl who asks for courage all her own

We have a voice, we are the future


We have a choice out in this world
As we begin each new beginning
We leave a trail of hope for others on their way

Growing Up in Girl Scouts Songs .
Daisy Senior
I have something in my pocket I have something in my pocket
That’s what the big girls say That’s what I used to say
I’ll have a pocket of my own Then Mother Nature waved her hand
When I wear brown someday And childhood flew away

My life is bright and easy Today my needs are different


I smile most of the day I wonder “What will be?”
I’m having lots of fun now I’m making life decisions now
As I sing and laugh and play! The choice is up to me

Brownie Leader
I have something in my pocket I have something in my pocket
That belongs across my face That’s what we always said
I keep it very close at hand But that we are the leaders
In a most convenient place Teaching them instead

I’m sure you wouldn’t guess it We teach them when they’re young
If you guessed a long, long while We teach them when they’re old
So, I’ll take it out and put it on We watch them grow up strong and tall
It’s a great big Brownie smile! And that is our reward
Cheese!

Junior
I have something in my pocket
That’s what I used to say
I spent my time so aimlessly
At home, at school, at play

Now every day is special


I’m searching, who am I?
Only I can find that out
Please let me have a try!

Cadette:
I have something in my pocket
That’s what I used to say
Playing games with childhood friends
Seems just like yesterday

I’m becoming a young women


Soon I’ll be a child no more
There’s lots of opportunity
And so much to explore

Gypsy Rover Songs .
The Gypsy rover went over the hill
Down to the valley so shady
He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang
For he won the heart of a lady

Chorus:
Ha di do, ah dido da day, ah di do
ah di day-ee
He whistled and he sang till
the green woods rang
For he won the heart of a lady

She left her father’s castle gate


She left her own true lover
She left her servants and her estate
To follow the Gypsy rover

Chorus

Her father saddled his fastest steed


He searched the valley all over
He sought his daughter at great speed
And the whistling Gypsy rover

Chorus

He came at last to a mansion fine


Down by the river Claydee
And there was music and there was wine
For the Gypsy and his lady

Chorus

“He is no Gypsy, my father,” said she


“But a lord of freelands all over
And I will stay to my dying day
With my whistling Gypsy rover.”

Bubbling out like champagne fine

Nut brown maiden, dance therein
While I scrape on the old violin

Hallow E’en Songs .
When the birds are sleepy
And the moonlight’s creepy
And the night is cold and still
When the pale stars glimmer
And the waters shimmer
And the shadows hide the hill

When the owl is calling


And the leaves are falling
In the sharp October air
And the tall trees shiver
And the bushes quiver
And you wish you weren’t there

Chorus:
O, it’s just the night for the wind to sigh
For the bats to fly
And the owls to cry
And the tall pale ghost to be watching nigh
Where they faintly can be seen
O, it’s just the night when the witches ride
And the demons hide
And the goblins glide
And the bug-a-boos are close beside
The night of Hallow E’en

When the lonely cricket


In the nearby thicket
Sings a homesick sort of tune
When the night birds flutter
And the low winds mutter
That a storm is coming soon

When your heart feels quaky


And your steps are shaky
If alone you have to roam
And you think you’ll hurry
Lest the folks might worry
And you’d rather be at home

Chorus

Halloween Song Songs .
Tune: Chestnut Song

Chester’s roaming in an open patch


Jack is stepping on his toes
We’re all waiting for the Great Pumpkin to come
And we’re dressed up in goblin clothes

Everybody knows the goodies that Great Pumpkin brings


Help to make our “spirits” bright
Pumpkin followers with flashlights aglow
Will keep their watch all through the night

They know Great Pumpkin’s coming back


He’ll bring a lot of toys and goodies in his sack
And all the kids will gather in a batch
When the Great Pumpkin rises out of the patch

And so I’m offering this wise advise —


“You’re gonna grin from ear to ear
On Halloween night when the Great One returns
If your patch is sincere.”

Yes, this crew must somehow form a fruit drink
That’s the way they all became Hawaiian Punch

Yet they were all alone

Then one day when banana met papaya


And they knew it was much more than a hunch
That this group must somehow form a family
That’s the way they are became

He Ain’t Gonna Climb No More Songs .
Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic They sped on down the chimney
and they passed the Southern Col
They had such good exposure that
Chorus: it made a glorious fall
Gory, gory, what a heck of a way to die They slithered o’er a friction pitch
Gory, gory, what a heck of a way to die and sped on down the wall
Gory, gory, what a heck of a way to die Oh they ain’t gonna climb no more
And he ain’t gonna climb no more!
Chorus

“Will it go around the chockstone?” The medic in the valley watched them
called the belayer, looking up through his telescope
Our hero feebly answered, “Yes,” And as they neared the bottom
and slowly inched on up his eyes grew bright with hope
He was trying to drive a piton when For it had been a week or more
his foothold crumbled out since the parting of the rope
Oh he ain’t gonna climb no more! Oh they ain’t gonna climb no more!

Chorus Chorus

He slid on down the chimney and One had a rope around his neck
he quickly gathered speed and a piton through his spleen
He shot past the belayer An ice-axe in the rucksack had split the other’s bean
who’s forgot the climber’s creed The trails of red marked their descent
An anchor to a piton would’ve been all he’d ever need as they neared the slopes of green
Oh he ain’t gonna climb no more! Oh they ain’t gonna climb no more

Chorus Chorus

The belayer felt the rope pull taught They hit the ground the sound was “splat”
and tried to let it run the blood went spurting high
But it jerked him from position Their comrades were heard to say
and he knew his time had come “What a colorful way to die!"”
He left the ledge behind him And as they lay there rolling in the welter of their gore
and it shot up toward the sun Oh they ain’t gonna climb no more!
Oh he ain’t gonna climb no more!
Chorus
Chorus
There was blood upon the rucksacks
there were brains upon the rope
Intestines were entwined across the green
and grassy slope
We picked them up in a lunch pail
after salvaging the rope
Oh they ain’t gonna climb no more!

He was last to leave the cockpit In a little box
and the first to hit the ground Make small box with hands
And he ain’t gonna fly no more So she sent him back to us
Make overhand throwing motion
Chorus

He landed on the runway like a blob of strawberry jam


He landed on the runway like a blob of strawberry jam
He landed on the runway like a blob of strawberry jam
And he ain’t gonna fly no more

Chorus

They scraped him off the runway with a silver spoon


They scraped him off the runway with a silver spoon
They scraped him off the runway with a silver spoon
And he ain’t gonna fly no more

Chorus

They sent him home to mother in a little wooden box
They sent him home to mother in a little wooden box
And he ain’t gonna fly no more

Heart and Soul Frank Loesser Songs .
Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored


Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling


Never before were mine so strangely willing
But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it’s got me loving you madly
That little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul

And I think they’re deranged
And the hotcakes taste
Just like clay

Oh give me a home
Under the stars and the sky
Sleeping on rocks where
My sleeping bag lies
Where always is heard
The sound of a breeze
And knowing
We will all freeze

Home on the Range Dr. Brewster M. Higley Songs .
Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam Oh give me a land where the bright diamond sand
Where the deer and the antelope play Flows leisurely down in the stream
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word Where the graceful white swan goes gliding along
And the skies are not cloudy all day Like a maid in a heavenly dream

Chorus: Chorus
Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play Then I would not exchange my home on the range
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word Where the deer and the antelope play
And the skies are not cloudy all day Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day
Where the air is so pure, and the zephyrs so free
The breezes so balmy and light
That I would not exchange my home on the range
For all of the cities so bright

Chorus

The red man was pressed from this part of the west
He’s likely no more to return
To the banks of the Red River where seldom if ever
Their flickering campfires burn

Chorus

How often at night when the heavens are bright


With the light from the glittering stars
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed
If their glory exceeds that of ours

Chorus

Oh, I love these wild flowers in this dear land of ours


The curlew I love to hear cry
And I love the white rocks and the antelope flocks
That graze on the mountain slopes high

Chorus

The touch of your hand in mine
For it means far more to the fainting heart

And bread lasts only a day
But the touch of your hand and the sound of your voice
Lives on in my soul always

May the road rise up to meet you


May the wind be always at your back
May the sunshine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields

And until we meet again someday


May God hold you in the (clap) palm of his hand
May the memories that we have shared
Linger on and on

Of a pumpkin quite absurd as . . .

Humphrey the Blue-Nosed Pumpkin


Had a very obvious nose
And if you ever saw it
You might even say it shows

All of the other pumpkins


Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Humphrey
Play in any pumpkin games

Then one foggy Hallow’s Eve


The Great Pumpkin did say
“Humphrey, with your nose so blue
You’ll make all the ghosts say BOO!”

Then all the pumpkins loved him


And they shouted out with glee
“Humphrey, the Blue-Nosed Pumpkin
You’ll go down in history!”

I am Camp Songs .
I am camp

I am sunlight—sheen on the water


A mist on the mountains, and stars

I am a doorway out of the commonplace


Into a new adventuring experience

I am a place where youth learns the joy of play


without a string
Of fellowship without regrets or creative effort
that wearies not
Of a good time that leaves no headache—
or heartache—behind

I am a new purpose for life that will make


the years different

I am noise—and silence with a thrill in it

I am laughter—and quiet resolution that seeks


the comfort of the hills

I am energy—and the touch of loving service

I am youth—and the slowly emerging habits


that make mature experience worthy

I am today—and the tomorrow that is being shaped

I am a giver of gifts that pass not away


that time will not chill
That poverty will not quench
that riches will not deceive

I am habits, ideals, ways of living


confirmed attitudes in the soul of youth

Because I am all these and more—


I invite youth into fellowship with me

I am camp

I am the Very Model of a Cartoon Individual Songs .
Tune: I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General

I am the very model of a cartoon individual


My animation’s comical, unusual and whimsical
I’m quite adept at funny gags; comedic theory I have read
From wicked puns and stupid jokes
to anvils that drop on your head

I’m very good at fancy dances; I can even pirouette


Then smack the villain with a fish;
I know my cartoon etiquette
I can make my face all mean
and really give you quite a fright
Then make up with flowers made
of real exploding dynamite

When in a jam I just yell “stop”


and villains in their tracks are froze
Then I sneak up and utter “start” and take my hands
and honk their nose
I am quite proud to be in such a hierarchal progeny
From Daffy Duck and Tweety Bird
to Babs and Buster Bunny

To suit my mood I can call forth a lot of different sceneries


Like outer space and desertscapes and Himalayan eateries
From this bag here why I can pull most anything imaginable
Like office desks and lava lights and Bert who is a cannibal

You see, in matters comical, unusual, and whimsical


We are the very model of cartoon individuals!

This is from the Animaniacs cartoon.

I quote, in elegiacs, all the crimes of Heliogabalus

I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies


I know the Croaking Chorus from “The Frogs” of Aristophanes!
Then I can hum a fugue of which I’ve heard the music’s din afore
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense “Pinafore.”
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense “Pinafore.”

I Don’t Want to Play in Your Yard Philip Wingate Songs .
Once there lived, side by side, two little maids
Used to dress alike, hair down in braids
Blue ging’am pinafores, stockings of red
Little sunbonnets tied on each pretty head

When school was over, secrets they’d tell


Whispering arm in arm, down by the well
One day a quarrel came, hot tears were shed
“You can’t play in our yard,” but the other said

Chorus:
“I don’t want to play in your yard
I don’t like you any more
You’ll be sorry when you see me
Sliding down our cellar door”

“You can’t holler down our rain-barrel


You can’t climb our apple tree
I don’t want to play in your yard
If you won’t be good to me.”

Next day, two little maids each other miss


Quarrels are soon made up, sealed with a kiss
Then hand in hand again, happy they go
Friends all through life to be, they love each other so

Soon school days pass away sorrows and bliss


But love remembers yet, quarrels and kiss
In sweet dreams of childhood, we hear the cry
“You can’t play in our yard,”
And the old reply

Chorus

Cause when you do, you have to hold your nose
Now, I know that flusher bowls were made for me

Snow-peaked mountains atow’ring to the sky
Now I know that God made this place for me

Continues to protrude

Chorus:
Calorie, calorah
Calorie, calorah ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Calorie, calorah
My body is obese

Italian food with all its cheese


And thick tomato paste
Never seems to pass on through
But hangs around my waist

Chorus

French cuisine inspires me


To even greater heights
An eight-course meal is quickly done
In seven standard bites

Chorus

A German meal is all I need


To make my day complete
It’s hard to keep a count
Of all the strudel that I eat

Chorus

At hot dog stands and burger joints


I make my power play
They bring it in a wheelbarrow
Instead of on a tray

Shoot from his nose

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus Songs .
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn’t see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom fast asleep

Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus


Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

For you have two and I have none

If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

I’m a Leader Songs .
Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic We went walking in the woodlands
my Girl Scout troop and me
The handbook says that nature has
I was glad to have a girl because a wealth of sights to see
our first child was a son It’s true we sure were sights when
I thought of all the ruffles, all the frilly bows and fun we were found eventually
I thought of how we’d sit and talk at night And I do all this for free
when day was done
Wasn’t I the foolish one I’m not meant to be a leader
I don’t know which bird is which
She was only half past seven when My wiener fork’s all burned up
they called me to the fore we come home from hikes and itch
I said “I’m not equipped.” The sit-upons all fell apart
They said “Oh, yes you are, what’s more I showed them the wrong stitch
We’ll train you in the basics But no one wants to switch
we’ll outfit you for the corps.”
Why couldn’t I have had a son? Glory, Glory I’m a leader
Hallelujah, I’m a leader
Glory, Glory I’m a leader Tell me why I should be happy
How’d I get to be a leader? When no one envies me
All I did was have a daughter
Is this the price I pay? But even though I grumble and I mumble and I shout
Though there are days I wonder
They taught me to be thrifty, to be thoughtful what’s the best way to get out
to be true I guess when all is said and done, there isn’t any doubt
They taught me how to string beads I’m glad to be a Scout!
like the noble Indians do
I had to learn to dig a trench, and how to use it too Glory, Glory I’m a leader
And you should taste the stew! Someone’s got to be a leader
They can carve it on my tombstone
I had to learn to sing songs that I didn’t understand “Here’s a girl who did her best!”
I learned to dance the polka and
to make a rhythm band
To think of what to do and
then forget what I had planned
And they say Scouting’s grand

Glory, Glory I’m a leader


Me, they had to make a leader
I can’t even build a fire
Let alone put up a tent!

I’m scheming schemes, I’m building castles high
They’re born anew, their days are few
Just like a sweet butterfly
And as the daylight is dawning
They come again in the morning!

I’m forever blowing bubbles


Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
Nearly reach the sky
Then like my dreams
They fade and die
Fortune’s always hiding
I’ve looked everywhere
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air

When shadows creep


When I’m asleep
To lands of hope I stray!
Then at daybreak
When I awake
My bluebird flutters away . . .
“Happiness, you seem so near me
Happiness, come forth and cheer me!”

I’m forever blowing bubbles


Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
Nearly reach the sky
Then like my dreams
They fade and die
Fortune’s always hiding
I’ve looked everywhere
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air

I’m in love with a big blue frog
A big blue frog loves me
It’s not as bad as it appears
He wears glasses and he’s six-foot three

They’ll be great looking ‘cause they’ll have my face
Great swimmers ‘cause they’ll have his feet

A big blue frog loves me
It’s not as bad as it appears
He’s got rhythm and a PhD

Well, I know we can make things work


He’s got good family sense
His mother was a frog from Philadelphia
His daddy an enchanted prince

The neighbors are against it and it’s clear to me


And it’s probably clear to you
They think the value on their property will go right down
If the family next door is blue

I’m in love with a big blue frog


A big blue frog loves me
I’ve got it tattooed on my chest
It says: P. H. R. O. G.
It’s frog to me: P. H. R. O. G.!

Woof! You sure gotta climb a lot of steps to get to this Capitol Then I go to the Senate and the whole thing starts all over again.
Building here in Washington. But I wonder who that sad little scrap

Oh, no!
I’m just a bill
Yes, I’m only a bill Bill:
And I’m sitting here on Capitol Hill Oh, yes!
Well, it’s a long, long journey
To the capital city I’m just a bill
It’s a long, long wait Yes, I’m only a bill
While I’m sitting in committee And if they vote for me on Capitol Hill
But I know I’ll be a law someday Well, then I’m off to the White House
At least I hope and pray that I will Where I’ll wait in a line
But today I am still just a bill With a lot of other bills
For the President to sign
Boy: And if he signs me, then I’ll be a law
Gee, Bill, you certainly have a lot of patience and courage How I hope and pray that he will
But today I am still just a bill
Bill:
Well I got this far. When I started, I wasn’t even a bill, I was just Boy:
an idea. Some folks back home decided they wanted a law passed, You mean even if the whole Congress says you should be a law,
so they called their local Congressman and he said, “You’re right, the president can still say no?
there oughta be a law.” Then he sat down and wrote me out and
introduced me to Congress. And I became a bill, and I’ll remain a Bill:
bill until they decide to make me a law. Yes, that’s called a veto. If the President vetoes me, I have to go
back to Congress and they vote on me again, and by that time
I’m just a bill you’re so old . . .
Yes I’m only a bill
And I got as far as Capitol Hill Boy:
Well, now I’m stuck in committee By that time it’s very unlikely that you’ll become a law. It’s not easy
And I’ll sit here and wait to become a law, is it?
While a few key Congressmen discuss and debate
Whether they should let me be a law Bill:
How I hope and pray that they will No!
But today I am still just a bill
But how I hope and I pray that I will
Boy: But today I am still just a bill
Listen to those congressmen arguing! Is all that discussion and
debate about you? Congressman:
He signed you, Bill! Now you’re a law!
Bill:
Yeah, I’m one of the lucky ones. Most bills never even get this far. Bill:
I hope they decide to report on me favorably, otherwise I may die. Oh, yes!!!

Boy:
Die?
Note:
Bill: This is about America’s law making process.
Yeah, die in committee. Oh, but it looks like I’m gonna live! Now I
go to the House of Representatives, and they vote on me.

Boy:
If they vote yes, what happens?

I’m Just a Spider Songs .
Tune: O Little Town of Bethlehem

I’m just a spider, hanging here


I spin my web all day
I work so hard now on my web
I don’t have time to play

Some people say I’m scary


And I don’t know what for
But what those people need to know
Is that they scare me more

‘Cause I’m just a spider — it’s my job


To spin my web each day
I don’t try to frighten you
So be kind with what you say

You’re just as proud to be you

Till shadows of evening are deep

I can see you while you’re asleep

The dark of night is good for my sight


I see a lot that’s hidden by light

From birds and beasts and stars in the skies


I learn the things that make me wise

I’m wise, I’m wise


My brain is remarkably deep

I’m wise because of the size of my eyes


I can see you while you’re asleep

I’ve Troubled for You Songs .
I’ve troubled for you, from time to time
That’s why nothing new oo-oo-oo
can break the bind
It’s the time you waste for them
that makes a friend a friend
Unique in all the world until the end

We’ve traveled for years, through mindless miles


And shed us some tears eer-eer-eers
through aimless trials
And though you’re old and worn
You’re the only home I’ve known
Through memories stretched beyond so many dawns

I find it hard to believe, that time brings change


Now all of my friends eh-eh-ends
are broken with age
But what’s essential you cannot see
I am responsible for my friends and they for me

No trouble annoying, each one is enjoying
The good old summertime

Strolling through the shady lanes
with your baby mine
You hold her hand and she holds yours
and that’s a very good sign
That she’s your tootsey wootsey

Oh, to swim in the pool you’d play hooky from school


Good old summer time
You would play “ring-a-rosie” with Jim, Kate and Josie

Those are days full of pleasure we now fondly treasure


When we never thought it a crime
To go stealing cherries with face brown as berries

Over land and sea
Yet a moonbeam on the water
Casts a spell o’er me
A vision fair I see
Again I seem to be . . .

Back home again
In Indiana
And it seems that I can see
The gleaming candle light still shining bright
Through the sycamores for me

The new-mown hay


Sends all its fragrance
From the fields I used to roam
When I dream about the moonlight
on the Wabash
Then I long for my Indiana home

Fancy paints on mem’ry’s canvas


Scenes that we hold dear
We recall them in days after
Clearly they appear
And often time, I see
A scene that’s dear to me . . .

Interplanet Janet Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
They say our solar system is centered ‘round the sun They say our solar system is not alone in space
Nine planets, large and small, parading by The Universe has endless mystery
But somewhere out in space Some future astronaut
There’s another shining face May find out that what he’d thought
That you might see some night up in the sky Was a shooting star instead turned out to be . . .

Interplanet Janet, she’s a galaxy girl Interplanet Janet, she’s a galaxy girl
A solar system Ms. from a future world A solar system Ms. from a future world
She travels like a rocket with her comet team She travels like a rocket with her comet team
And there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen And there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen
No, there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen No, there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen

She’s been to the Sun, it’s a lot of fun


It’s a hot-spot. It’s a gas!
Hydrogen and helium in a big, bright, glowing mass
It’s a star, it’s a star! So Janet got an autograph!

Mercury was near the Sun so Janet stopped by


But the mercury on Mercury was much too high, so
Janet split for Venus but on Venus she found
She couldn’t see a thing for all the clouds around
Earth looked exciting, kind of green and inviting
So Janet thought she’d give it a go
But the creatures on that planet looked
so very weird to Janet
She didn’t even dare to say hello

It’s a bird, it’s a plane!


Why, it must be a UFO, but it was

Interplanet Janet, she’s a galaxy girl


A solar system Ms. from a future world
She travels like a rocket with her comet team
And there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen
No, there’s never been a planet Janet hasn’t seen

Mars is red and Jupiter’s big


And Saturn shows off its rings
Uranus is built on a funny tilt
And Neptune is its twin
And Pluto, little Pluto, is the farthest planet from the Sun

Scooter: Scooter:
When school lets out I race right home Ok Mr. Chips, let’s show
I’m faster than the bus, I just can’t wait to see my friend These kids how much we know
Who’s come to live with us I type my questions on his keys to set my pal in motion
He’s quite unique this friend of mine Name the states that border on the great Pacific Ocean
Like none you’ve ever seen
He’s full of fancy circuitry He sure to have the answers if the program all was right
Instead of fingers he has keys He searches all his data through
And where a normal face should be And feeds back names of four or two
he’s got a special screen
I knew I could depend on you
Scooter Computer and Mr. Chips Hey Chips, you’re out of sight
They’ve got the answers at their fingertips
Scooter Computer and Mr. Chips Mr. Chips:

Scooter: Scooter:
Mr. Chips is quite a whiz There’s just no end to what we do with
he works with lightening speed Mr. Chips around
He gives me information and the answers that I need He helps me with my homework so I really get it down
He’s got a super memory, but I’m what makes him tick He prints the checks that pay the bills
He’s programmed so that he reacts He stores up dates and names
when I feed him data He files facts, makes shopping lists
Those are facts, he sorts then out and answers back He tells us birthdays not to miss
You ought to see how quick! And then on top of all this he’s great at playing games

Mr. Chips: Mr. Chips:


Anything you can do with paper and pencil I’m free. I win.
I can do faster. Sorry.

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear Edwin H. Shears Songs .
It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold

“Peace to earth, good will to men


From heaven’s all-gracious King”
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing!

Still through the cloven skies they come


With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats
O’er all the weary world

Above its sand and lowly plains


They bend on hovering wing
And ever o’er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing!

And ye beneath life’s crushing load


Whose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow

Look now! For glad and golden hours


Come swiftly on the wing
Oh, rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing!

For lo! The days are hast’ning on


By prophet bards foretold
When with the ever-circling years
Comes round the age of gold

When peace shall over all the earth


Its ancient splendors fling
And all the world give back the song
Which now the angels sing!

It’s Beginning to Look Like Christmas Songs .
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev’rywhere you go
Take a look in the five-and-ten
Glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas


Toys in ev’ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the holly that will be
On your own front door

A pair of hopalong boots


And a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that will talk
And will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait
for school to start again

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas


Ev’rywhere you go
There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas


Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart

I cannot tell a lie, I hawked an apple pie
It’s on a tree beneath the sea above the bright blue sky

Oh, if Easter eggs don’t wash their legs

But that is all balonia, Paderewski blow your horn!

And pass the bottle when he got dry

Chorus:

A vigil I would have to keep
And when he wanted to shut his eye
He told me, “Watch the blue tail fly.”

One day he rode around the farm


The flies so numerous, they did swam
One chanced a-bitin’ him on the thigh
The devil take the blue tail fly!

Chorus

The pony run, he jump and pitch


And tumble master in the ditch
He died, the jury they wondered why
The verdict was “the blue tail fly.”

Chorus

They laid him ‘neath a ‘simmon tree


His epitaph is there to see
“Beneath this stone I’m forced to lie
A victim of the blue tail fly.”

Ol’ master’s gone, now let him rest


They say that things are for the best
I can’t forget ‘till the day I die
Ol’ master and the blue tail fly

Johnny Vorbeck, Sausage Machine II Songs .
Chorus:
Mr. Johnny Vorbeck how could you
be so mean?
I told you’d be sorry for inventing that machine
Now all the neighbors cats and dogs
will never more be seen
They’ll all be turned to sausages
in Johnny Vorbeck’s machine

One day a little Dutch boy came wailing in the store


He bought a pound of sausages and
laid them on the floor
He then began to whistle, he whistled up a tune
And all the little sausages began dancing
round the room

Chorus

One day the thing got busted


the darn thing wouldn’t go
So Johnny Vorbeck, he climbed inside
to see what made it so
His wife she had a nightmare, while walking
in her sleep
She gave the crank A HECK OF A YANK —
and Johnny Vorbeck was meat!

Let’s take hands in friendship
Today the skies are bright
Sing a song of happiness
A chorus of delight
Dance into the future, Guides of many lands
Celebrating, celebrating, as we all join hands

We can grow each on herself
Speak with her own voice
Use our hands in praying, choosing, living
And know ourselves and then begin
to know the folk we meet

Seize our chance and live
Be prepared to lend a hand
We have much to give
Use our hands in serving, helping, sharing
And know the joys of caring and loving all our lives

Who lived in a garret of New Amsterdam
And showered down blessings like rain in the spring

Who better could mend tin kettle or pan
Or bucket or skimmer or dipper or can

And under his cloak he carried a bow
All for to shoot at a merry little doe
Among the leaves so green-o!

The third doe went where nobody wist
Among the leaves so green-o!

The fourth doe, she did cross the plain


The Keeper fetched her back again
Where she’s now she may remain
Among the leaves so green-o!

The fifth doe, she did cross the brook


The Keeper fetched her back with his crook
Where she’s now, you must go and look
Among the leaves so green-o!

Gotta sunburn on my nose
I’ve got sand in the food I eat
I’ve got blisters on both my feet
I’m in pain but I can’t complain
I’m king of the camp!

The parents bring their kids to stay


Here until Labor Day!
When they become a drag
I give them a plastic bag
I’ve got cuts, bruises, and some bumps
Chicken pox, and the mumps
I’ve got ulcers just because
I’m king of the camp!

I know all the moms and dads


And all their brats
All of their doggies and all of their cats
If the same kids are as great
As the parents all say
Then how come every summer
They send them away?

Meanwhile, back at the pool


Water is nice and cool
Kids splashing all around
While I teach ‘em how to drown
I lose more brats that way
I lose some in the woods each day
I’m a bitter babysitter
I’m king of the camp!

Pony for sale or rent

He’s a horse, of course, but no prize
He ain’t got no eyes

Knows every clover patch on ev’ry hill


Won’t leave until he’s eaten his fill
He’s a good candidate for the glue factory
Please, mister, won’t you buy him from me?

Two hours of pushing broom
Buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room

Destination Bangor, Maine

Don’t pay no union dues
He smokes old stogies he has found
Short, but not too big around

Every engineer on every train
All of their children and all of their names
And every hang-out in every town
Every lock that ain’t locked

Land We Call Home Bette Roberts Songs .
Rivers and valleys and ocean beyond
This is the land we call home
Cities and villages, towns big and small
In this the land we call home
Here too are islands with palm shaded shore
Tropical sisters have we
Hills gently rolling that stretch to the sea
Here in the land we call home

There is a lady with torch lifted high


Welcoming all to our door
She gives a promise to all those who come
To this, the land we call home
Ours was a part of our country’s first strife
For written on hist’ry’s page are
Ticonderoga and Trenton and those who
Fought for the land we call home

Times Square and Broadway and skyscrapers tall


Here in the land we call home
Ships in our harbors from all ports of call
In this the land we call home
Glamour of cities and silence of woods
These are the gifts that we share
With rivers and valleys and oceans beyond
Here in the land we call home

Lark and the Magpie Songs .
In a snug little field of a neighboring park
On a beautiful morning in spring
A pert little magpie once asked of a lark
If he thought he could teach him to sing
“Oh no,” said the lark with a comical look
As he warbled and waggled his tail
“It would be too much trouble and sorrow
And I know I most surely would fail
For he who won’t listen the art of a teacher defies
And birds who chatter can never expect to be wise.”

Rather than in fields of corn
In bushes, or in shrubbery

I sit upon the broken seat
And try to keep my blue jeans neat

Rather than a dirty leaf
What a way to find relief!

Leaders Songs .
Tune: Barges Alternate Version

Chorus:
Out of my tent flap looking in the night Leaders, do I have to go with you?
I can see the leaders, boy, what a sight! Do I have to do the things you do?
Curlers in their hair and cold cream on their face Leaders, do I have to go with you?
They look like something from outer space Do I have to do the things you do?

Leaders, I would like to be like you Out of my tent flap looking in the night
I would like to have some privileges, too I can see the Leaders, oh, what a sight
Leaders, have you cookies that you hold? Cold cream on their faces, curlers in their hair
Do you share with Scouts brave and bold? They could scare a great big grizzly bear

Out of my tent flap looking in the night Chorus


I can see those leaders having a fight
Silently goes a pillow through the air Out of my tent flap looking in the night
And here comes someone’s underwear I can see the Leaders shiver with fright
Lake is on the East, latrine is on the West
Leaders, I don’t want to be with you To find the right one is the test
I would probably end up black and blue
Leaders, have you cookies that you hold? Chorus
Do you share with Scouts good as gold?

The girls get in a circle, one girl gets in the middle and
walks around while they sing the first two lines and then
she stops in front of a girl. She does something special
(dance, etc.) in front of one girl while they sing “hey,
hey do your thing, do your thing now switch.”

When they say switch the two girls switch places and
then the new girl in the middle starts to walk around
while everyone starts to sing again.

To make sure every girl gets a chance have the girl that
has walked in the middle to squat down that way she
doesn’t get picked again.

Little Turkey in the Straw Bob Tucker Songs .
Tune: Turkey in the Straw

Oh, there was a little turkey


Who strutted through the straw
He lived in the barn
With his maw and paw
But every November
He thought it was a pity
They sent him to visit
His cousins in the city

“Gobble, gobble, gobble,”


He cried all day
He did not want to go away
His folks said, “Go!
Before time’s wasted
Or you’ll spend Thanks-
Giving day being basted!”

And so the little turkey


Went off to see the town
A little bit unhappy
With his tail feathers down
His cousins took him
Trotting to their Pizza Hut—
And now that little turkey
Is a pizza nut

He eats, then sighs
And orders up more pizza pies
He tells his cousins

Little Twelvetoes Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Now if man had been born with six fingers on each hand Lemme see now:
He’d also have 12 toes or so the theory goes One times 12 is twelve, two times 12 is 24
Well, with twelve digits, I mean fingers Three times 12 is 36, four times 12 is 48
He probably would have invented two more digits when Five times 12 is 60
He invented his number system Six times 12 is 72, seven times 12 is 84
Then, if he saved the zero for the end Eight times 12 is 96, nine times 12 is 108
He could count and multiply by twelve just as easily Ten times 12 is 120
As you and I do by ten Eleven times 12 is 132, and 12 times 12 is 144
WOW!
Now if man had been born with six fingers on each hand
He’d probably count: one, two, three, four, five, six Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you’re thriving
Seven, eight, nine, dek, el, doh Some of us ten-toed folks are still surviving
“Dek” and “el” being two entirely new signs If you help me with my twelves
meaning ten and eleven I’ll help you with your tens
Single digits! And we could all be friends
And his twelve, “doh”, would be written 1-0 Little twelvetoes, please come back home
Get it? That’d be swell, for multiplying by 12

Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you’re well


Must be some far-flung planet where you dwell
If we were together, you could be my cousin
Down here we call it a dozen
Hey little twelvetoes, please come back home

Now if man had been born with six fingers on each hand
His children would have ‘em too
And when they played hide-and-go-seek
They’d count by sixes fast
And when they studied piano,
they’d do their six-finger exercises
And when they went to school, they’d learn
the golden rule, and
How to multiply by twelve
Easy: just put down a zero
But me, I have to learn it the hard way

The littlest worm Alternate Version

Loaf of Bread Songs .
My mother called to me The farmer ploughed the field
And this is what she said The wheat it grew so high
“Go down to the store He took it to the miller
And buy a loaf of bread When it was nice and dry
And buy a loaf of bread.” When it was nice and dry

Chorus: Chorus
I danced down so happily
So very, very snappily The miller ground the wheat
My mother sent me out Until it was so fine
To buy a loaf of bread He put it in a sack
And sewed it up with twine
The storekeeper listened And sewed it up with twine
And this is what he said
“Let’s go to the baker Chorus
And get the loaf of bread
And get the loaf of bread.” While the baker made the dough
We went to get the coal
Chorus A miner dug it out
Of a dark and spooky hole
We talked to the baker A dark and spooky hole
And this is what he said
“The miller has the flour Chorus
For to bake the bread
Yes, for to bake the bread.” The dough was kneaded well
The coal was glowing red
Chorus The baker put in the dough
And soon it came out bread
We went to the miller And soon it came out bread
In his mill so neat

For to get the wheat
Yes, for to get the wheat.” The storekeeper wrapped it
And gave it straight to me

We came to the farmer As proud as I could be
A-milking of his cow
He sent us to the blacksmith Chorus
For to get a plough

On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

Chorus:
Oh! Ye’ll take the high road
and I’ll take the low road
And I’ll be in Scotland a-fore ye
But me and my true love, we’ll never meet again

On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond
While in purple hue the highlands hills we view
And the moon coming out in the gloaming

And in sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart kens nae second spring again
Though the waeful may cease frae their greeting

All across the town, all across the night


Everybody’s driving with full headlights
Black or white turn it on, face the new religion
Everybody’s sitting ‘round watching television!

London’s burning with boredom now

What a great traffic system — it’s so bright
I can’t think of a better way to spend the night
Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights

London’s burning with boredom now

Now I’m in the subway and I’m looking for the flat
This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
The wind howls through the empty blocks looking
for a home
I run through the empty stone because I’m all alone

London’s burning with boredom now . . .

Tall:
We are long and tall and skinny
Lank and thin we will admit
But our appetite is perfect
We are always feeling fit

Short:
We are short and stout and rugged
And our stature may be wide
But with it we are contented
We accept our size with pride

Tall:
We would not be like some people
Short, condensed—a sorry plight
With spike heels and high poke bonnets
Helping elevate our height

Short:
We are not a bit peculiar
We are chic and so petite
No one ever could mistake us
For a lamp post on the street

All:
Short or tall, we should be thinking
How successful we will be
If we plan and work together
I’ll help you and you help me

Rest now the birds and the sheep
Garden and meadow are still
Hushed is the sound of the mill
Moonbeams with silvery light
Dancing and shining and bright
In at thy window they peep
Sleep little princeling, oh sleep!
Oh sleep, oh sleep

Nobody stirs in the house


Comes not the squeak of a mouse
Empty are pantry and hall
They are at rest one and all
Only so tiny and frail
Comes there one small fretful wail
Why does my pretty one weep?
Sleep little princeling, oh sleep!
Oh sleep, oh sleep

Who is so happy and bless’d


Cuddled and loved and caressed
Playthings about in thy rooms
Carriages, horses and grooms
All for thy pleasure they wait
Thou shalt be splendid and great
If but my prince will not weep

Magic, I Believe Songs .
When I was young I thought the stars were made
for wishing on
And every hole deep in a tree would hide a leprechaun
Old houses all had secret rooms

I do believe in magic, I believe

Chorus:
Magic is the sun that makes the rainbow
out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive
to try and try again
And magic is the love that stays when
good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, I believe

When I was young, the grown-ups said


one day I’d wake to find
That magic was a childhood dream
I’d have to leave behind
Like clothes that would no longer fit
and toys that I’d ignore
I’d not believe in magic anymore

Chorus

Well, now that I’m grown


I found that much to my surprise
The magic did not fade away, it took a new disguise
A child, a friend, a smile, a song
the courage to stand tall
I do believe in magic after all

New made friends


Like new made wine
Alternate Version #2
Grow and mature
To the end of the time
Make new cheese, don’t eat the old
One is food and the other’s mold!
Friends like you
Are one of a kind
Boys Scouts drool and Girl Scouts rule
Very special
That’s what makes us Girl Scouts cool
And hard to find

Note: Friends are real


This song is a round. In groups of four, each group starts at the And friends are true
beginning line in the first stanza. In smaller groups, use two If you love them
groups and come in at the first line and third line. They will love you too

For a new “round,” have one group sing “Make New Cherish friendship
Friends” thrice while a second sings “Sing Together" twice. In your breast
New is good
But old is best
Alternate Version #3
Across the miles
Make new friends Across the sea
But keep the old Friends forever
One is silver We will always be
And the other gold

A circle’s round Japanese Version


It has no end
That’s how long A tara shi
I want to be your friend Tomo o stukuru

You hold me Wasu resu
And I’ll hold you
Then together
We will make it through

Making $7.50 Once a Week Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Seven-fifty once a week My allowance is gone
They pay me seven-fifty once a week And I am broke
You see me walking tall
Down at the shopping mall When you get seven-fifty once a week
‘Cause I’m makin’ seven-fifty once a week Sometimes the situation seems a little bleak
Now every Monday morning when I get my pay ‘Cause it’s a drag at the mall
I feel very rich indeed When you got no cash at all
I got a pocket full of money
I can spend each day You’re down the tube
So I can pay for all the stuff I need You’re up the creek

I got a great start Well there goes my allowance


But here’s the hard part I didn’t plan ahead
I got to plan for every expense I made some bad choices
and I compared prices too late
‘Cause every nickel counts I guess I’ll have to find a way to earn some more
When your entire allowance But that shouldn’t be too hard
Is only seven dollars, fifty cents Maybe I can do an extra household chore
Like wash the car
But I do like to live it up! Or mop the floor
Every day after lunch at school Or maybe help clean up the back yard
I treat myself to an ice cream sandwich
At fifty cents apiece, that comes to I’ll get my spending plan
two and a half dollars every week I’ll get my shopping done
But that’s ok, I got five dollars left And still have cash on hand
I’m still ahead of the game. I start with . . . That I can spend . . .
On fun!
Seven-fifty at the top
My favorite bubble gum is sixty cents a pop I still get seven-fifty once a week
I’ve got to choose and plan But now I learned some money management technique
And do the best I can And I can save enough
I think I’m gonna have to learn to shop To buy some real cool stuff
By just comparing prices I can save a lot And I made my little fortune so to speak
On only seven-fifty, once a week
I spent two dollars for a bite to eat That’s my allowance
This chicken enchilada really hits the spot Seven-fifty once a week
But it’s on sale for fifty cents across the street.
I balanced my budget!
Now I would like to try a slice of pizza pie
But I am high and dry
It’s no joke
I should have planned ahead
I spent it all instead

Man of Constant Sorrow Songs .
I am a man of constant sorrow
I’ve seen trouble all my day
I’m going back to California
Place I was partly raised

All through this world, I’m bound to ramble


Through storm and wind, through sleet and rain
I’m bound to ride that northern railroad
Perhaps I’ll take the very next train

Your friends they say I am a stranger


You’ll never see my face no more
There is just one promise that’s given
We’ll sail on God’s Golden Shore

I am a man of constant sorrow


I’ve seen trouble all my day
I’m going back to California
Place I was partly raised

Marines’ Hymn L. Z. Phillips Songs .
From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
We fight our country’s battles
In the air, on land and sea

First to fight for right and freedom


And to keep our honor clean
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine

Our flag’s unfurled to ev’ry breeze


From dawn to setting sun
We have fought in ev’ry clime and place
Where we could take a gun

In the snow of far off Northern lands


And in sunny tropic scenes
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines

Here’s health to you and to our Corps


Which we are proud to serve
In many a strife we’ve fought for life
And never lost our nerve

If the Army and the Navy


Ever look on heaven’s scenes
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines

Its fleece was white as snow

And everywhere that Mary went

School one day, school one day
It followed her to school one day
Which was against the rules

It made the children laugh and play


Laugh and play, laugh and play

To see a lamb at school

And so the teacher turned it out


Turned it out, turned it out
And so the teacher turned it out
But still it lingered near

And waited patiently about


Patiently about, patiently about
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear

“Why does the lamb love Mary so?


Love Mary so? Love Mary so?
Why does the lamb love Mary so?”

“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know


Loves the lamb, you know, loves the lamb, you know
Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know.”

And we were not far from land
When the captain spied a lovely mermaid
With a comb and a glass in her hand

Chorus:
Oh! The ocean waves may roll
And the stormy winds may blow
While we poor sailors go skipping to the top
And the land lubbers lie down
below, below, below
And the land lubbers lie down below

Then out spake the captain of our gallant ship


And a well spoken man was he
“I have married me a wife in Salem town
And tonight a wider will be.”

Then out spake the cook of our gallant, gallant ship


And a red hot cook was he
“I care much more for my kettles and my pots
Than I do for the depths of the sea.”

Then three times round went our gallant, gallant ship
And she sank in the depths of the sea

Monster Mash Songs .
I was working in the lab late one night They played the mash
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight They played the monster mash
For my monster from his slab began to rise The monster mash
And suddenly to my surprise It was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
He did the mash It caught on in a flash
He did the monster mash They played the mash
The monster mash They played the monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash Out from his coffin, Drac’s voice did ring
It caught on in a flash Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He did the mash He opened the lid and shook his fist
He did the monster mash And said, “Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?”

From my laboratory in the castle east It’s now the mash


To the master bedroom where the vampires feast It’s now the monster mash
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes The monster mash
To get a jolt from my electrodes And it’s a graveyard smash
It’s now the mash
They did the mash It’s caught on in a flash
They did the monster mash It’s now the mash
The monster mash It’s now the monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash Now everything’s cool, Drac’s a part of the band
It caught on in a flash And my monster mash is the hit of the land
They did the mash For you, the living, this mash was meant too
They did the monster mash When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

The zombies were having fun Then you can mash


The party had just begun Then you can monster mash
The guests included Wolf Man The monster mash
Dracula and his son And do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash
The scene was rockin’, all were digging the sounds You'll catch on in a flash
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds Then you can mash
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive Then you can monster mash
With their vocal group, “The Crypt-Kicker Five”

Hiking for rainbow, sunset, and stars
Just finding out who you are

We will return here one lucky day


Our hearts will guide us they know the way

Open your window and show your head
Up, then, with singing, up, then with singing
Over the meadows the sun comes red
Up, then, with singing, up, then with singing
Over the meadows the sun comes red

Alternate Version

Morning comes early, the dew so bright


Come with me, laddie, in day’s first light
Dawn overtakes me, morning awakes me
To the green meadows the herd I lead

Listen, my comrade: when work seems long


Lighten each moment with merry song
Welcome tomorrow, wait not for sorrow
Music and laughter are all we need

Note:
This is a Slovak folk song.

Morning Has Broken Eleanor Farjeon Songs .
Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them, spring fresh from the word

Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heaven


Like the first dew fall on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning


Born of the one light Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise ev’ry morning
God’s recreation of the new day

Morning has broken like the first morning


Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them, spring fresh from the word

The sun is rising out of bed
And in the east the sky is red

So early in the morning

Morningtown Ride Songs .
Train whistle blowing, makes a sleepy noise
Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys
Heading from the station, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
<Child’s name>’s at the engine
<Another child’s name> rings the bell
<Other child’s name> swings the lantern
to show that all is well
Rocking, rolling riding, out along the bay
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away
Maybe it is raining where our train will ride
But all the little travelers are snug and warm inside
Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day
Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles away

Mother Necessity Ring me on the Alexander Graham Bell
With her good intentions Thank you, Alexander, for the phone
Where would this country be I’d never get a date, I’d never get a job
Without her inventions? Unless I had a telephone
Oh, things were rotten in the land of cotton
Until Whitney made the cotton gin Mother Necessity!
Now old times there will soon be forgotten
For it did the work of a hundred men “Orville, Wilbur, go outside this minute
And there continue with your silly playing!
Mother Necessity, where would we be? Take these plans and take those blueprints
Take that funny looking thing
Mother Edison worked late each night Take that wheel, take that wing
It went well until the fading light I can’t hear a thing that Mrs. Johnson’s saying
Little Thomas Alva Edison said, “I’ll grow up to be Orville! Wilbur! Come back, boys! Orville! Wilbur!”
A great inventor and I’ll make a lamp to help
my mommy see.” Mother Necessity, where would we be?
Wowee! What an excellent application of electricity!
He worked hard and pulled the switch When Robert Fulton made the steamboat go
He was smart and very rich When Marconi gave us wireless radio
When Henry Ford cranked up his first automo
Mother Necessity, help us to see When Samuel Slater showed us how factories go
And all the iron and oil and coal and steel and
Now, the mother of Samuel Morse Yankee, don’t you know
Always sent the lad out on a horse They made this country really grow, grow, grow, grow
“Take a message to Ms. Peavy on the far side With Mother Necessity and where would we be
of the pike Without the inventions of your progeny?
Spread the word about the quilting bee
next Saturday night!”
Little Samuel started thinking of a way to send a message
Though he never met a horse he didn’t like. Uh!

Mother Necessity!

Elias, can you help me with my sewing?


Mother dear, I’ll fulfill your fondest wishes
Elias, how?
This machine I’ve made will keep your sewing
really flowing
In fact, we’ll keep the whole nation in stitches. Ah!

Mr. Bojangles Songs .
I knew a man Bojangles and he danced for you He said, “I dance now at every chance in honky tonks
In worn out shoes For drinks and tips. But, most of the time I spend
With silver hair, a ragged shirt, and baggy pants behind the county bars,”
The old soft shoe He said, “I drinks a bit.”
He jumped so high, jumped so high He shook his head, and as he shook his head
Then he lightly touched down I heard someone ask please

Mr. Bojangles Mr. Bojangles


Mr. Bojangles Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles—dance Mr. Bojangles—dance

I met him in a cell in New Orleans


I was down and out
He looked at me to be the eyes of age
As he spoke right out
He talked of life, talked of life
He laughed, slapped his leg a step

He said his name Bojangles, then he danced a lick


Across the cell
He grabbed his pants, a better stance
oh, he jumped so high
And he clicked his heels
He let go a laugh, let go a laugh
Shook back his clothes all around

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs


Throughout the South
He spoke with tears of fifteen years
how his dog and he
Traveled about
His dog up and died, he up and died
After twenty years, he still grieved

You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch!
You really are a heel!
You’re as cuddly as a cactus
You’re as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch!
You’re a bad banana with a greasy black peel

You’re a monster, Mr. Grinch!


Your heart’s an empty hole!
Your brain is full of spiders
You’ve got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch!
I wouldn’t touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole

You’re a foul one, Mr. Grinch!


You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch
Given a choice between the two of you
I’d take the seasick crocodile

You’re a rotter, Mr. Grinch!


You’re the king of sinful sots
Your heart’s a dead tomato splotched
With moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch
You’re a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool
sandwich with arsenic sauce

You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch


Wit a nauseous super “naus”
You’re a crooked dirty jockey
And you drive a crooked hoss, Mr. Grinch
Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing
with the most disgraceful assortment
Of rubbish imaginable mangled up in tangled up knots

You’re a foul one, Mr. Grinch!


You’re a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch
The three words that best describe you are
as follows, and I quote
“Stink, stank, stunk!”

Muff the Tragic Wagon Songs .
Tune: Puff the Magic Dragon

Muff the Tragic Wagon, lived by the street


And rolled along the boulevard
Through rain and snow and sleet

Chorus:
Little Tommy Pumpkin loved that wagon, Muff
And rolled him home and filled him up
With toys and other stuff

Together they would travel along the avenue


Tommy hanging out his leg would scuff his Sunday shoe
Taxi cabs and buses would honk as they went past
Tragic wagons never seem to need to stop for gas

Chorus

Children live forever, but not so children’s toys


Wagons can’t forever be a friend to little boys
And one gray day it happened while Tommy
took his nap
A garbage truck ran over Muff and turned him
into scrap

Chorus

Little Tommy Pumpkin said just off the cuff


There will never be another tragic wagon, Muff

My Hero, Zero Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Zero? That’s why with only ten digits including zero
Yeah, Zero is a wonderful thing You can count as high as you could ever go . . .
In fact, Zero is my hero! Forever, towards infinity
No one ever gets there, but you could try
How can Zero be a hero?
With 10 billion zeros
Well, there are all kinds of heroes, you know From the cavemen till the heroes
A man can get to be a hero Who invented you
For a famous battle he fought . . . They counted on their fingers and toes
Or by studying very hard And maybe some sticks and stones, or rocks and bones
And becoming a weightless astronaut And their neighbors’ toes
You’re here
And then there are heroes of other sorts And nobody really knows
Like the heroes we know from watching sports How wonderful you are
But a hero doesn’t have to be a grown up person Why we could never reach the star
you know Without you, Zero, my hero
A hero can be a very big dog Zero, how wonderful you are
Who comes to your rescue
Or a very little boy who’s smart enough Place one zero after any number
to know what to do And you’ve multiplied that number by 10
See how easy that is
But let me tell you about my favorite hero Place two zeros after any number
And you’ve multiplied that number by 100
My hero, Zero, such a funny little hero See how simple that is
But till you came along Place three zeros after any number
We counted on our fingers and toes And you’ve multiplied that number by 1,000
Now you’re here to stay
And nobody really knows Et cetera, et cetera, ad infinitum, ad astra
How wonderful you are forever and ever
Why we could never reach a star With zero, my hero, how wonderful you are
Without you, Zero, my hero
How wonderful you are

What’s so wonderful about a zero?


It’s nothing, isn't it?

Sure, it represents nothing alone

But place a zero after one


And you’ve got yourself a 10
See how important that is?
When you run out of digits
You can start all over again
See how convenient that is?

My Home’s in Montana Songs .
My home’s in Montana
I wear a bandanna
My spurs are of silver
My pony is gray
When riding the ranges
My luck never changes
With foot in the stirrup
I gallop away

When far from the ranches


I cut the pine branches
To lay out a bed
When the starlight is pale
When I have partaken
Of beans and of bacon
I whistle a merry
Old song of the trail

Note:
This is a U.S. cowboy song.

My Leader Songs .
Tune: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

My leader fell into a pothole


In a glacier while climbing an Alp
She’s still there after 50 long winters
And all you can see is her scalp

Chorus:
Bring back, bring back
O bring back my leader to me, to me
Bring back, bring back
O bring back my leader to me, to me

My leader was proud of her hair-do


To cut it would give her the blues
It hung all the way to her ankles
And she used it for shining her shoes

Chorus

My leader had faith in a sailboat


She had built from an old hollow tree
My leader set sail for Australia
Now my leader lies under the sea

Chorus

My leader made friends with hyenas


She gave them a ride on her raft
When a crocodile reached up and grabbed her
The hyenas just sat there and laughed

Chorus

My leader annoyed her dear parents


They tossed her right out of the bus
And if we don’t mend our behavior
Why that’s what will happen to us

Naughty Number Nine Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Number nine will put you on the spot Now the digit sum is always equal to nine
Number nine will tie you up, oh, in a knot I mean, if you add two and seven, the digits
When you’re tryin’ You get nine, the digit sum
Multiplyin’ by nine That’s true of any product of nine
You might give it everything you’ve got If they don’t add up, you’ve made a mistake
And still be stopped ‘Cause you must have some secret way you can check it
If you don’t know some secret way you can check on Or else you’ll wreck it
You’ll break your neck on With naughty, nasty, mean old number nine
Naughty number nine

Now the first thing to keep in mind


When you’re multiplyin’ by nine
Is that it’s one less than ten
You see, nine is the same as ten minus one
So you could multiply your number by ten
And then subtract the number from the result
And you’d get the same product
As if you’d multiplied by nine
And you knew it

I mean, eight times nine is 80 minus eight


And seven times nine is 70 minus seven
and six times nine is 60 minus six
You could use those tricks
‘Cause you must have some secret way you can beat it
Or else you’ll meet it
With naughty number nine

Of course, it doesn’t hurt


To know the table of nines by memory
It goes like this
One times nine is nine, and two times nine is 18
Mean ol’ number nine
Three times nine is 27, and four times nine is 36
Five times nine is 45, and six times nine is 54
And seven times nine is 63
Eight times nine is 72, and nine times nine is 81
And ten times nine is 90

No More Kings Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Rockin’ and a-rollin’, splishin’ and a-splashin’ He taxed their property
Over the horizon, what can it be? He didn’t give them any choice
The pilgrims sailed the sea And back in England
To find a place to call their own He didn’t give them any voice
In their ship “Mayflower” That’s called taxation without representation
They hoped to find a better home and it’s not fair!
They finally knocked But when the Colonies complained
On Plymouth Rock The king said: “I don’t care!”
And someone said, “We’re there.”
It may not look like home He even has the nerve
But at this point I don’t care To tax our cup of tea
To put it kindly, King
Oh, they were missing Mother England We really don’t agree
They swore their loyalty until the very end Gonna show you how we feel
Anything you say, King We’re gonna dump this tea
It’s okay, King And turn this harbor into
You know it’s kinda scary on your own The biggest cup of tea in history!
Gonna build a new land
The way we planned They wanted no more Mother England
Could you help us run it till it’s grown? They knew the time had come
For them to take command
They planted corn, you know It’s very clear you’re being unfair, King
They built their houses one by one No matter what you say, we won’t obey
And bit by bit they worked Gonna hold a revolution now, King
Until the colonies were done And we’re gonna run it all our way
They looked around With no more kings . . .
Yeah, up and down
And someone said, “Hurray!” We’re gonna elect a president!
If the king could only see us now No more kings
He would be proud of us today He’s gonna do what the people want!
No more kings
They knew that now they’d run their own land We’re gonna run things our way!
But George the Third still vowed No more kings
He’d rule them till the end Nobody’s gonna tell us what to do!
Anything I say, do it my way now
Anything I say, do it my way Rockin’ and a-rollin’, splishin’ and a-splashin’
Don’t you get to feeling independent Over the horizon, what can it be?
‘Cause I’m gonna force you to obey Looks like it’s going to be a free country

This song is about the colonization of America.

Noun is a Person, Place, or Thing Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Well every person you can know I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty
And every place that you can go My best friend was waitin’ there for me
And anything that you can show He took an early ferry
You know they’re nouns We went for a walk on the island you know
A noun’s a special kind of word And in the middle of summer it started to snow
It’s any name you ever heard When I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty
I find it quite interesting
A noun’s a person, place, or thing Well, every person you can know
Like a friend or the captain of a ship
Oh, I took a train, took a train to another state And every place that you can go
The flora and fauna that I saw were really great An island or a sea
I saw some bandits chasin’ the train And anything that you can show
I was wishin’ I was back home again Like a statue, a ferry, or snow
I took a train, took a train to another state You know they’re nouns — you know they’re nouns

Well, every person you can know Oh, I put a dime in the drugstore record machine
Like a bandit or an engineer Oldies goldies started playing if you know what I mean
And every place that you can go I heard Chubby Checker, he was doin’ the twist
Like a state or a home And the Beatles and the Monkees, it goes like this!
And anything that you can show I put a dime in the drugstore record machine
Like animals and plants or a train
You know they’re nouns — Well, every person you can know
you know they’re nouns, oh . . . The Beatles and the Monkees, Chubby Checker
And every place that you can go
Mrs. Jones is a lady on Hudson Street Like a neighborhood or a store
She sent her dog to bark at my brother and me And anything that you can show
We gave her dog a big fat bone Like a dime or a record machine
And now he barks at Mrs. Jones You know they’re nouns
She’s a lady who lives on Hudson Street
A noun’s a special kind of word
Well, every person you can know It’s any name you ever heard
Mrs. Jones, a lady, or a brother I find it quite interesting
And every place that you can go A noun’s a person, place, or thing
Like a street or a corner
And anything that you can show A noun is a person, place or thing
Like a dog or a bone
You know they’re nouns — you know they’re nouns

Number Cruncher Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Scooter: Scooter:
Baseball’s s’posed to be fun! In other words, I punch them . . .
Can’t wait to hit a home run
But they got me playing the wrong position Mr. Chips:
Since they made me the statistician Precisely, and I crunch them
I’m in numbers up to my ears! I process numbers as quick as a flash
This is gonna take me years and years For whatever results you need
And years and years and years I process numbers into measuring tools
To measure sound and time and speed
Mr. Chips: I process numbers to find just how fast
Numbers? Scooter, did you say numbers? A rocket can get to Mars
I project the future and recall the past
Scooter: And I can show you a map of the stars
Yes, numbers, Mr. Chips. Batting averages, earned run aver-
ages, team standings . . . I can probably figure this stuff out, Scooter:
but I’ll miss batting practice. Wow!

Mr. Chips: Mr. Chips:


Feed me those numbers. I’ll do the work. I process numbers into curves and lines
Display them on a graph or chart
Scooter: I process numbers into colors and shapes
You mean . . . To make a digital work of art!
A work of art!
Mr. Chips:
Precisely! Cause I’m a number cruncher
A mathematical muncher
Sit down Scooter, you’re in for a treat. I can round numbers off, I can square them
Numbers, you see, are just my meat . . . I can line numbers up and compare them
I can change then around, rearrange them around
‘Cause I’m a number cruncher I can deal with them in any way you choose
A mathematical muncher I can round numbers off
I can square them I’m not a math professor
I can line numbers up and compare them I am a data processor
I can change them around, rearrange them around I can mix numbers up and combine them
I can deal with them in any way you choose I can take them apart and align them
I can shake numbers up, I can break numbers up
I’m not a math professor I can turn then into something you can use
I am a data processor
I can mix numbers up and combine them Scooter:
I can take them apart and align them My baseball statistics?
I can shake numbers up, I can break numbers up
I can turn then into something you can use Mr. Chips:
If you can punch them A piece of cake!
I can crunch them But remember: First you need to punch them . . .
'Cause I'm a number cruncher
Scooter:
Scooter: I know . . . then you can crunch them . . .
Mr. Chips, you’re amazing! Cause you’re a number cruncher!

O Holy Night Songs .
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear’d and the soul felt its worth

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices


For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, o night divine!

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming


With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here came the wise men from Orient land

The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger


In all our trials born to be our friend!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, o night divine!

Truly he taught us to love one another


His law is love and his gospel is peace
Chains shall he break for the slave is our brother
And in his name all oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we


Let all within us praise his holy name!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, o night divine!

O Little Town of Bethlehem Phillip Brooks Songs .
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary


And gather’d all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wond’ring love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently


The wondrous gift is giv’n!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heav’n
No ear may his His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive him still
The dear Christ enters in

O holy Child of Bethlehem


Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us

Oak and the Ash, The Songs .
A North Country maid
Up to London had stray’d
Although with her nature it did not agree
She wept and she sign’d
And she bitterly cried
I wish once again in the North I could be

Chorus:
Oh, the oak and the ash
and the bonny ivy tree
They flourish at home in my own country

While sadly I roam


I regret my dear home
Where lads and young lasses are making the hay
The merry bells ring
And the birds sweetly sing
And maidens and meadows are pleasant and gay

Chorus

Of parks they may talk


Where ‘tis fashion to walk
I’ll own the gay throng is a wonderful sight
But nought have I seen
Like the Westmoreland green
Where all of us danced from the morning til night

Chorus

No doubt, did I please


I could marry with ease
Where maidens are fair, many lovers will come
But he whom I wed
Must be North Country bred
And carry me back to my North Country home

Ode to a Girl Scout Leader Carol Lee Spages Songs .
Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic We went walking in the woodland
just my Girl Scout troop and me
The handbook says that nature has a wealth
I was glad to have a girl . . . she was a pretty one! of sights to see!
I thought of all the ruffles, all the frilly bows and fun It’s true that we were sights when we were found eventually
I thought of how we’d sit and talk at night And I do this all for free!
when day was done
Wasn’t I the foolish one? I’m not meant to be a leader
I don’t know which bird is which
At her tender age of five Our wiener forks are all burned up
They called me to the fore We go on hikes and itch!
I said, “Oh no, I’m not equipped.” The sit-upons all fell apart,I showed them the wrong stitch
They said, “Oh yes, what’s more But no one wants to switch!
We’ll train you in the basics and we’ll prep you for the corps.”
Then they shoved me out the door Chorus:
Glory, glory, I’m a leader!
Chorus: Someone’s got to be the leader
Glory, glory, I’m a leader! Tell me why I should be happy
How’d I get to be a leader? When no one envies me!
All I did was have a daughter
Is this the price I pay? When you see me leaving for those weekend overnights
With all my happy girls and tents and pots
They taught me to be thrifty, to be thoughtful, to be true and pans and lights
They taught me how to string some beads We’ll come back when it’s over—dirty, tired
and make things using glue and full of bites
I had to learn to dig a trench and how to use it, too! But we’ve been to see the sights!
And you should taste our stew!
But even though I grumble and I mumble and I shout
I had to learn to sing some songs I didn’t understand Some days I sit and think and ask
I learned to dance the polka and to make a rhythm band “What is the best way out?”
I think of what to do and then forget what I have planned I guess when all is said and done there isn’t any doubt
And they say Girl Scouting’s grand! I’m glad I’m a Girl Scout!

Chorus: Chorus:
Glory, glory, I’m a leader! Glory, glory, I’m a leader!
Me, they had to make a leader! Hallelujah, I’m a leader
I can’t even build a fire They can carve it on my tombstone
Let alone put up a tent “Here’s a gal who did her best!”

Hail thee, Joy!


All hail, divinest
Daughter of Elysium!
We approach thy light so cheering
To thy altar now we come
Thou has power to bind together
What the world would rend apart
And where’er thy light wings flutter
Love and peace are in the heart

Joy, ‘tis joy


From heaven descended
Turns unseen the wheel of life
Joy by love and hope attended
Leading hearts from worldly strife
Draws the stream from hidden sources
Stirs the seed in earth confined
Rolls the stars along their courses
Moves the heart of all mankind

Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay
Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away
Gone from the earth to a better land I know
I hear their gentle voices calling Old Black Joe

I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low


I hear their gentle voices calling Old Black Joe
Why do I weep, when my heart should feel no pain
Why do I sigh that my friends come not again?
Grieving for forms now departed long ago

Where are the hearts once so happy and so free?

Gone to the shore where my soul has longed to go

Old Cromwell Songs .
Old Cromwell was an angry man Old Cromwell milked the muley cow
An angry man was he, he For fear she would go dry, dry
He said he could do more work in a day But he forgot the little babe
Than his wife could do in three, three And oh, how it did cry, cry
O tolderol, derol, derol O tolderol, derol, derol
Tolderiddledy rido Tolderiddledy rido

Mrs. Cromwell said to him one day Old Cromwell then prepared to dine
“You are so very surly He boiled an ounce of meat, meat
I’ll let you do the work in the house And then he made a pudding
I think you’ll like it surely.” And boiled it in a sheet, sheet
O tolderol, derol, derol O tolderol, derol, derol
Tolderiddledy rido Tolderiddledy rido

“And you must milk the muley cow Old Cromwell washed the pudding bag
For fear she will go dry, dry And hung it on the fence, fence
And don’t forget the little babe I’ve often heard the neighbors say
For oh, how it will cry, cry.” ‘Twas four and twenty lengths, lengths
O tolderol, derol, derol O tolderol, derol, derol

For fear she’ll lay away, way
And don’t forget the spool of yarn
That I spun yesterday, day.”
O tolderol, derol, derol

“And you must put the cream in the churn


For fear that I shall blame, blame
And don’t forget the fat in the pot
For it’s all go into flame, flame.”

The old family toothbrush

The old family toothbrush
That hung by the sink

First it was father’s


Then it was mother’s
Now it is sister’s
And soon ‘twill be mine!

Father abused it
Mother misused it
Sister refused it
And now it is mine!

First it was yellow


Then it was purple
Now it is green
And all covered with slime

Old Folks at Home Songs .
Way down upon the Swanee River, far, far away
That’s where my heart is turning ever
there’s where the old folks stay
All up and down the whole creation, sadly I roam
Still longing for the old plantation
and for the old folks at home

Chorus:
All the world is sad and weary
Every where I roam
Oh people, how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home

All ‘round the little farm I wandered


when I was young
There many happy days I squandered
many the song I sung
When I was playing with my brother, happy was I
Oh, take me to my kind old mother
there let me live and die

Chorus

One little hut among the bushes, one that I love


Still sadly to my memory rushes, no matter where I rove
When will I see the bees a-humming
all ‘round the comb?
When will I hear the banjo strumming
down in my good old home?

I went to the old Kentucky


The old Kentucky Fair . . . Whoo!
I saw a señorita
With flowers in her hair . . . Whoo!

Shake ‘em, shake ‘em, shake ‘em


Shake ‘em all you can
Shake ‘em, shake ‘em, shake ‘em
Shake ‘em once again

Oh, round and around and around she goes


Where she stops, nobody knows
Point to the east, point to the west
Point to the one that you like best

Old Oaken Bucket Songs .
How dear to my heart are the scenes of my childhood
When fond recollection presents them to view
The orchard, the meadow, the deep tangled wildwood
And ev’ry loved spot which my infancy knew
The wide spreading pond, and the mill that stood by it
The bridge and the rock where the cataract fell
The cot of my father, the dairy house nigh it
And e’en the rude bucket that hung in the well
The old oaken bucket, the iron bound bucket
The moss-covered bucket that hung in the well

The moss-covered bucket I hailed as a treasure


For often at noon, when returned from the field
I found it the source of an exquisite pleasure
The purest and sweetest that nature can yield
How ardent I seized it, with hands that were glowing
And quick to the white pebbled bottom it fell
Then soon, with the emblem of truth overflowing
And dripping with coolness, it rose from the well
The old oaken bucket, the iron bound bucket
The moss-covered bucket that hung in the well

The tassels dusting off the sky

Roosters crow like eight-day clocks
Roasted pigs run all about
With knives and forks stuck in their snouts

Chorus

The salmon leap so high up there


Hold your kettle in the air
They’ll jump in, pull on the lid
And cook themselves to look like squid

O come and bring your fiddle


Dance to the middle
Ole with his violin
Will help us make a merry din

Chorus: As I sit and watch the sunset
On the loose to climb a mountain and the daylight softly fade
On the loose where I am free I am thinking of tomorrows
On the loose to live my life and the friendships that we have made
The way I think my life should be I will value them for always
For I’ve only got a moment and I hope you’ll do the same
And the whole world left to see And forever we’ll live life out on the loose
Looking for tommorow on the loose
Chorus
Have you ever seen a sunrise turn
the sky completely red? Now the moon is gently glowing
Have you slept beneath the moon and stars and the stars are twinkling bright
with a pine bough for your bed? Our laughter and our friendship has cleared
Can you sit and talk with friends the cloudy night
though a word is never said? Come and join our flickering campfire
Then you’re just like me and you’ve been on the loose come and sing our happy songs
Come and we’ll live our lives together on the loose
Chorus
Chorus
There’s a trail that I’ve been hiking
just to see where it might go
Many places yet to visit, many people yet to know
And in following my dreams I will live and I will grow
On the trail that’s waiting out there on the loose

Chorus

So in search of love and laughter


I’ll be traveling across this land
Never sure of where I’m going, for I haven’t any plan
But in time when you are ready come
and join me take my hand
And together we’ll explore life on the loose

On Top of Old Smokey Songs .
On top of old Smoky, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover from courting too slow

Now, courting is pleasure and parting is grief


And a false-hearted lover is worse than a thief

For a thief will just rob you and take what you have
But a false-hearted lover will lead you to the grave

And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust
Not one boy in a hundred a poor girl can trust

They’ll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than cross ties on a railroad or stars in the skies

So, come all you young maidens and listen to me


Never place your affection on a green willow tree

For the leaves they will whither


and the roots they will die
You’ll all be forsaken and never know why

I lost my poor meatball
When somebody sneezed

It rolled off the table

And then my poor meatball
Rolled out of the door

It rolled in the garden


And under a bush
And then my poor meatball
Was nothing but mush

The mush was as tasty


As tasty could be
And early next summer
It grew into a tree

The tree was all covered


With beautiful moss
It grew lovely meatballs
And tomato sauce

So if you eat spaghetti


All covered with cheese
Hold on to your meatballs
And don’t ever sneeze

Actions: Make appropriate finger and body actions for


the words, and don't leave out a real, live sneeze.

One Tin Soldier Songs .
Listen children, to a story
That was written long ago
‘Bout a kingdom on a mountain
And the valley folk below
On a mountain was a treasure
Buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore
They’d have it for their very own

Chorus:
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of Heaven
You can justify it in the end
There won’t be any trumpets blowin’
Come the Judgment Day
On the bloody morning after
One tin soldier rides away

So the people of the valley


Sent a message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure
Tons of gold for which they’d kill
Came an answer from the kingdom
“With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of the mountain
All the riches buried there.”

Now the valley cried with anger


“Mount your horses, draw your swords!”
And they killed the mountain people
So they won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure
On the mountain, dark and red
Turned the stone and looked beneath it
“Peace on Earth” was all it said

Actions:
The key thing with this song is not the words, but the
actions! Repeat the song three times, doing the actions
in rhythm with the music.

During the first verse, put both hands on the knees of


the person to your right, then on your own knees, then
on the knees of the person to your left, then back on
your own knees.

During second verse, start with arms folded (not tucked


in!) in front of your chest; put right hand out, put left
hand on top of it, put left hand back in “folded” posi-
tion, put right hand in “folded” position and then repeat
by putting left hand out first.

During last verse, put both hands on knees, then put left
hand on nose while crossing right arm over to touch left
ear with right hand; then put hands on knees again and
this time touch nose with right hand while touching right
ear with left hand. (This last action requires some care
to ensure you don’t poke your finger in your eye!)

Over the Graveyard Songs .
Tune: Over the River

Over the graveyard and through the tombs


To the haunted house we go
The ghosts are a fright
This spooky night
So come and join the show

Over the graveyard and through the tombs


Just hear the dreadful cries
The banshees howl
The black cats yowl
Their shrieking fills the skies

Over the graveyard and through the tombs


Where all the goblins meet
Witches and ghouls
They are no fools
They all yell, “Trick or Treat.”

Over the graveyard and through the tombs


The jack-o-lanterns gleam
Bats fill the skies
With glowing eyes
Hooray! It’s Halloween!

Over the river and through the woods
To grandfather’s house we go
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through the white and drifted snow, oh!
Over the river and through the woods
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go

Over the river and through the woods


Trot fast my dapple gray
Spring over the ground like a hunting hound
For this is Thanksgiving Day
Over the river and through the woods
Now Grandmother’s face I spy
Hurrah for the fun, is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie

Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun
Take it on the run, on the run, on the run

Hurry right away, no delay, go today


Make your daddy glad, to have had such a lad
Tell your sweetheart not to pine
And be proud her boy’s in line

Chorus:
Over there, over there
Send the word, send the word over there
That the Yanks (boys) are coming
the Yanks (boys) are coming
The drums rum-tumming ev’rywhere

So prepare, say a pray’r


Send the word, send the word to prepare
We’ll be over, we’re coming over
And we won’t come back till it’s over over there

Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun
Johnnie show the Hun, you’re a son-of-a-gun
Hoist the flag and let her fly
Like true heroes do or die

Pack your little kit, show some grit, do your bit


Soldiers to the ranks from the towns and the tanks
Make your mother proud of you
And to liberty be true

Good friends are always with us, wherever we may go
For Scouting is the flame that guides us

Each color blends in harmony

And makes every Sunday a treat for me

All the world seems in tune on a spring afternoon


When we’re poisoning pigeons in the park
Every Sunday you’ll see my sweetheart and me
As we poison the pigeons in the park
When they see us coming, the birdies all try an’ hide
But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide
The sun’s shining bright, everything seems all right
When we’re poisoning pigeons in the park

We’ve gained notoriety, and caused much anxiety


In the Audubon Society with our games
They call it impiety and lack of propriety
And quite a variety of unpleasant names
But it’s not against any religion
To want to dispose of a pigeon

So if Sunday you’re free, why don’t you come with me


And we’ll poison the pigeons in the park
And maybe we’ll do in a squirrel or two
While we’re poisoning pigeons in the park
We’ll murder them all amid laughter and merriment
Except for the few we take home to experiment
My pulse will be quickenin’ with
each drop of strych’nine
We feed to a pigeon
It just takes a smidgin!
To poison a pigeon in the park!

Poppyland Express Songs .
The first train leaves at six p.m.
For the land where the poppies still grow
And mother dear is a brave engineer
And the passenger laughs and coos
So I ask of him to the children he took
On his knees and his kindness so great
Take charge, I pray, of the trains every day
That are leaving at six and at eight
The palace car is my mother’s arms
And the whistle is an old sweet strain
The passenger winks, then nods, and then blinks
Then goes to sleep in the train
So I ask of him to the children he took
On his knees and his kindness so great
Take charge, I pray, of the trains every day

Prairie Home Companion Carol and Bill Trube Songs .
The Prairie Home Companion went to
Yellowstone National Park
To give a grand performance that would finish after dark
With Old Faithful in the background
There was music in the air
And, no one saw THE BEAR!

Chorus:
What a way to end our Spring Tour
It has been a great adventure
Celebrations and surprises
telling jokes and meeting folks
Our memories linger on

The bear ran on the stage right in the middle


of the show
This advice was being given by the voice of Ross Perot
“You’re not elephant or donkey
I invite you on our show.”
The bear stopped in its tracks

Chorus

Julia Child came on next and pleaded with the bear


to stay
She was going to serve a grand buffet
that featured bear filet
It got so scared, it jumped three feet
then turned and ran away
Her recipe saved the day!

Preamble Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Hey, do you know about the U.S.A.? And the Preamble goes like this
Do you know about the government?
Can you tell me about the Constitution? Preamble
Hey, learn about the U.S.A.
For the United States of America . . .
In 1787 I’m told
Our founding fathers did agree
To write a list of principles Note:
For keepin’ people free This is about the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution.

The U.S.A. was just startin’ out


A whole brand-new country
And so our people spelled it out
The things that we should be

And they put those principles down on paper and


called it the Constitution, and it’s been helping us run
our country ever since then. The first part of the
Constitution is called the Preamble and tells what those
founding fathers set out to do

Preamble:
We the people
In order to form a more perfect union
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility
Provide for the common defense
Promote the general welfare and
Secure the blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution
For the United States of America

In 1787 I’m told


Our founding fathers all sat down
And wrote a list of principles
That’s known the world around

The U.S.A. was just starting out


A whole brand-new country
And so our people spelled it out
They wanted a land of liberty

Puff the Magic Dragon Songs .
Chorus:
Oh, Puff the magic dragon
Lived by the sea
He frolicked in the autumn mist
In a land called Honalee

Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff


And brought him strings
And sealing wax
And other fancy stuff

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail


Jackie kept a look out perched on Puff’s gigantic tail
Noble Kings and Princes would bow
when e’er they came
Pirate ships would lower their flags
when Puff roared out his name

Chorus

A dragon lives forever, but no so little boys


Painted wings and giant’s rings make way for other toys
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
So Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave

You can circle the globe in the space of a moment
Charting a course with your mind, if you try!

Involved in the world for a better tomorrow
With dreams of the future to share

Red River Valley Songs .
From this valley they say you are going I have promised you, darling, that never
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile Will a word from my lips cause you pain
For they say you are taking the sunshine And my life, it will be yours forever
Which has brightened our pathways a while If you only will love me again

Chorus: Chorus
Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu They will bury me where you have wandered
But remember the Red River Valley Near the hills where the daffodils grow
And the girl that has loved you so true When you’re gone from the Red River Valley
For I can’t live without you I know
I’ve been thinking a long time, my darling
Of the sweet words you never would say
Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish?
For they say you are going away

Chorus

Won’t you think of the valley you’re leaving


Oh, how lonely and sad it will be
Just think of the fond heart you’re breaking
And the grief you are causing to me

Chorus

From this valley they say you are going


When you go, may your darling go too?
Would you leave her behind unprotected
When she loves no one other than you

Chorus

As you go to your home by the ocean


May you never forget those sweet hours
That we spent in the Red River Valley
And the love we exchanged ’mid the flowers

Red Wing Songs .
There once lived an Indian maid
A shy little prairie maid
Who sang a lay, a love song gay
As on the plain she’d while away the day

She loved a warrior bold


This shy little maid of old
But brave and gay
He rode out one day to battle far away

Chorus:
Now, the moon shines tonight on pretty Red Wing
The breeze is sighing
The night bird’s crying
From afar ’neath his star her brave is sleeping
While Red Wing’s weeping
Her heart away

She watched for him day and night


She kept all the campfires bright
And under the sky, each night she would lie
And dream about his coming by and by

But when all the braves returned


The heart of Red Wing yearned
For far, far away, her warrior gay
Fell bravely in the fray

Took Rhonda out of sight
And told her that it’s time she knew
How to wipe her nose just right

Riding in the Morning Songs .
We are riding in the morning
Out from my father’s house
Hear the bridle all a-jingle
Bells ring so gay
Canter, canter on the white high road
Then down the green by-road
In the shadow of the deep wildwood
We’ll find it’s May

We’re a-riding in the morning


Home to my father’s house
Here the bridle all a-jingle
Bells ring so gay
Trotting, trotting on the old home road
Back from a far lone road
Smell of cooking done in well-known mode
Oh, happy day

Which will see all men free

Only happy faces bloom there
And there’s never any room there
For a worry or a gloom there

And a lot of sweet romancing

They all get in the swing

Every time they hear that oom-pa-pa


Everybody feels so tra-la-la
They want to throw their cares away
They all go lah-de-ah-de-ay
Then they hear a rumble on the floor, the floor
It’s the big surprise they’re waiting for
And all the couples form a ring
For miles around you’ll hear them sing . . .

Rose, The Songs .
Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower and you its only seed

It’s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance


It’s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
It’s the one who won’t be taken who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely


and the road has been too long
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love in the spring
becomes the rose

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer Songs .
You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen

The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer


Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Play in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve


Santa came to say
“Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”
Then all the reindeer loved him
And they shouted out with glee
“Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
You’ll go down in history!”

With a broomstick and a mop

And a huge hole for a nose His time had come to go

Now, I have a friend named Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla Now I could tell you Rafaella Gabriela and Rufus Xavier
And I could say that Rufus found a kangaroo Sarsaparilla and Albert Andreas Armadillo found an
That followed Rufus home aardvark, a kangaroo, and a rhinoceros. And now that
And now that kangaroo belongs aardvark and that kangaroo and that rhinoceros belong
To Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla respectively to Rafaella Gabriela Sarsaparilla and Rufus
Whew! I could say that, but I don’t have to Xavier Sarsaparilla and Albert Andreas Armadillo!
‘Cause I got pronouns
I can say, “HE found a kangaroo that followed HIM Whew! Because of pronouns I can say, in this way
home and now IT is HIS.” “WE found THEM and THEY found US, and now
THEY are OURS and WE’re so happy.”
You see, Thank you pronoun!
Uh.
HE, HIM, and HIS are pronouns You see a pronoun was made to take the place
Replacing the noun of a noun
Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla ‘Cause saying all those nouns over and over
A very proper noun Can really wear you down
And IT is a pronoun, replacing the noun, kangaroo!
How common! Sometimes, when we take ‘em all on the bus
People really raise a fuss
Now Rufus has a sister named They start shouting out a lot o’ pronouns at us, like
Rafaella Gabriela Sarsaparilla “WHO brought that rhinoceros on this bus?” and
If she found a kangaroo I’d say to you “WHAT made that horrible noise?” and
“SHE found a kangaroo that followed HER home, “WHICH one of them is getting off first?”
and now it is HERS.”
But I can’t say that . . . WHO, WHAT, and WHICH are special pronouns
‘Cause she found an aardvark that can ask a question
That fell in love with HER and THEY’re so happy In a sentence where you do not know the name
of the noun
And my name’s Albert Andreas Armadillo But I know
No relation to the Sarsaparillas. I have MINE, and SHE has HERS
Because of pronouns, I can say and he has his. Do YOU have YOURS?
“I wish SHE would find a rhinoceros for ME, and THEY love US, and WE love THEM
WE’d be happy.” What’s OURS is THEIRS —
You see, a pronoun was made to take the place That’s how it is with friends
of a noun And pronouns, you are really friends, yeah!

And washtubs and bathtubs, and sailboats

Or babies, or nursemaids
Or chocolate ice-cream sodas

You can see her teeth for miles and miles
And her tonsils and her spare ribs
And other things too fierce to mention

Now what can you do in a case like that?


There’s nothing to do but sit on your hat
Or your toothbrush, or your best friend
Or anything that’s helpless

Remember me to a bonny lass there

Without any needle or thread work’d in it
And she shall be a true lover of mine

Tell her to wash it in yonder well

Where water ne’er sprung nor a drop of rain fell
And she shall be a true lover of mine

Tell her to plough me an acre of land


Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the sea and the salt sea strand
And she shall be a true lover of mine

Tell her to plough it with one ram’s horn

And sow it all over with one peppercorn
And she shall be a true lover of mine

Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather

And tie it all up with a tom-tit’s feather

And she shall be a true lover of mine

A couple of kids once more

Chorus:
School days, school days
Dear old golden rule days
Readin’ and ’ritin’ and ’rithmetic
Taught to the tune of a hick’ry stick

You were my queen in calico


I was your bashful barefoot beau
And you wrote on my slate, “I love you so.”
When we were a couple of kids

’Member the hill, Nellie darling


And the oak tree that grew on its brow?
They’ve built forty stories upon that old hill
And the oak’s an old chestnut now

’Member the meadows so green, dear


So fragrant with color and maize?
Into new city lots and preferred bu’ness plots
They’ve cut them up since those days

We got some work to do now
Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?

You’re going to have yourself a scooby snack!

If we can count on you Scooby Doo

Scout Prayer Songs .
Tune: O Christmas Tree

Softly falls the light of day


As our campfire fades away
Silently each girl should ask
“Have I done my daily task?
Have I kept my honor bright?
Can I guiltless sleep tonight?
Have I done and have I dared
Everything to be prepared?”

I have kept my honor bright


I can guiltless sleep tonight
I have done and I have dared
Everything to be prepared

Scout Travelers Songs .
Tune: Home on the Range

Oh, give us a train or a boat or a plane


That will carry . . . Scouts away
To Paris or Rome, let us wander and roam
And discover new things each day

Relax on a trail, float over the waves all day


Or glide through the clouds, far over the crowds
But be home before five each day

On a broomstick we’ll ride, in a rowboat we’ll glide


In a rocket we’ll go to the moon
And our trip will be fun but soon will be done
Air pockets could end it too soon

Up, up, and away; let us orbit the far distant sun
Or deep on the floor of the sea let’s explore
And as . . . Scouts we’ll always have fun

Scout Wetspers Songs .
Tune: O Christmas Tree

Learned to swim so I won’t drown
Have I done, and will I try
Everything to keep me dry?

Glistening stars were high above me

All were camping with me too

Scouting’s Bare Necessities Songs .
Tune: Bare Necessities

We like those bare necessities


Those Scouting bare necessities
That keep a Scout’s life busy and full of fun

We’ve got those bare necessities


The simple things to rest at ease
While the rest of folks have campers with TVs

I’m talkin’ about cooking on an open fire


With only a tin can and part of a tire
The food may smell a bit too strong
But the aftertaste does not stay long
And I know that you’ll surely agree
It sticks to your ribs and fills your tummy
Now sing along with me!

The bare necessities of life is Scouting’s way


We’re sure today
It’s the best way!

Seven Old Ladies Songs .
Oh dear, what can the matter be
Seven old ladies stuck in the lavatory
They were there from Sunday to Saturday
And nobody knew they were there

The first to go in was old Mrs. Flynn


She prided herself on being so thin
But when she sat down, she fell right in
And nobody knew she was there

The next to go in was old Mrs. Humphrey


When she sat down, she got cozy and comfy
But when she stood up she couldn’t get her bum free
And nobody knew she was there

The next to go in was old Mrs. Brewster


Who I couldn’t see as good as she used to
When she sat down, she swore somebody goosed her
And nobody knew she was there

The next to go in was old Mrs. Fender


Who went in to fix a broken suspender
It snapped and injured her feminine gender
And nobody knew she was there

The next to go in was old Mrs. Draper


Who couldn’t find the toilet paper
All she could find was a rust paint scraper
And nobody knew she was there

The next to go in was old Mrs. Murray


Who had to go in a hell of a hurry
When she got there, there was no need to worry
And nobody knew she was there

The last to go in was old Mrs. Mason


There wasn’t a place, so she went in the basin
And that’s the one that I washed my face in
And nobody knew she was there

Oh dear, what can the matter be


Seven old ladies stuck in the lavatory
They were there from Sunday to Saturday
And nobody knew they were there

Shot Heard Round the World Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
“The British are coming! The British are coming!” Well, they showed such determination
That they won the admiration
Now, the ride of Paul Revere Of countries across the sea like France and Spain
Set the nation on its ear Who loaned the colonies ships and guns
And the shot at Lexington heard ‘round the world And put the British on the run
When the British fired in the early dawn And the Continental Army on its feet again
The War of Independence had begun
The die was cast, the rebel flag unfurled And though they lost some battles too
The Americans swore they’d see it through
And on to Concord marched the foe Their raiding parties kept up, hit and run
To seize the arsenal there you know At Yorktown the British could not retreat
Waking folks searching all around Bottled up by Washington and the French Fleet
Till our militia stopped them in their tracks Cornwallis surrendered and finally we had won!
At the old North Bridge we turned them back
And chased those Redcoats back to Boston town The winner!

And the shot heard ‘round the world Hurray!


Was the start of the Revolution
The Minute Men were ready, on the move From the shot heard ‘round the world
Take your powder, and take your gun To the end of the Revolution
Report to General Washington The continental rabble took the day
Hurry men, there’s not an hour to lose! And the father of our country
Beat the British there at Yorktown
Now, at famous Bunker Hill And brought freedom to you and me and the U.S.A.!
Even though we lost, it was quite a thrill
The rebel Colonel Prescott proved he was wise God bless America
Outnumbered and low on ammunition Let Freedom Ring!
As the British stormed his position
He said, “Hold your fire till you see the whites
of their eyes!” Note:
This song is about the American Revolution.
Though the next few years were rough
General Washington’s men proved they were tough
Those hungry, ragged boys would not be beat
One night they crossed the Delaware
Surprised the Hessians in their lair
And at Valley Forge they just bundled up their feet!

And the shot heard ‘round the world


Was the start of the Revolution.
The Minute Men were ready, on the move
Take your blanket, and take your son
Report to General Washington
We’ve got our rights and now it’s time to prove

Side by Side Songs .
Oh, we ain’t got a barrel of money
maybe we’re ragged and funny
But we’ll travel along, singing a song, side by side
Don’t know what’s coming tomorrow
maybe it’s trouble and sorrow
But we’ll travel the road, sharing our load, side by side

Through all kinds of weather, what if the sky should fall


Just as long as we’re together, it doesn’t matter at all
When they’ve all had their troubles and parted
We’ll be the same as we started
Just trav’ling along, singing our song, side by side

And on ev’ry street corner you’ll hear

Chorus:
Silver bells, silver bells
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights, even stop lights


Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa’s big scene
And above all this bustle you hear

Silver Moon is Shining Songs .

I wander down the meadow with no one near me

The silver moon is shining upon the silent meadow


I wander down the meadow with no one near me

The nightingale is singing beyond the forest shadow


I sigh within the shadow where none can hear me

How lovely is the moonlight between


the shadows breaking
My heart would ease its aching if thou wert near me

Sing a Song of Sixpence Songs .
Sing a song of sixpence
A pocket full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie

When the pie was opened


The birds began to sing
Wasn’t that a dainty dish
To set before a king?

Counting all his money
The queen was in the parlor
Eating bread and honey

The maid was in the garden


Hanging out the clothes
Down flew a blackbird
And pecked off her nose

Six little ducks that I once knew
Fat ones, skinny ones, fair ones too
But the one little duck with a feather on his back
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack

Down to the river they would go


Wibble, wabble, wibble, wabble to and fro
But the one little duck with a feather on his back
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack

Into the river they would dive


Over and under the other five
But the one little duck with a feather on his back
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack

Home from the river, they would come


Wibble, wabble, wibble, wabble, ho-hum-hum!
But the one little duck with a feather on his back
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack
He led the others with his quack, quack, quack

A mind that’s weak and a back that’s strong

Ya’ load sixteen tons and what do you get?
Another day older and a deeper in debt
Saint Peter, don’t ya’ call me ‘cause I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin’ when the sun didn’t shine


I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
An the strawboss hollered, “Well, bless my soul!”

Chorus

Now when you see me comin’, you’d better step aside


Alot o’ men didn’t and alot o’ men died
One fist of iron and the other of steel
If the right one don’t get then the left one will

A smile is quite a funny thing


It wrinkles up your face
And when it’s gone you’ll never find
It’s secret hiding place
But far more wonderful it is
To see what smiles can do
And so one smile makes two

He smiles at someone since you smiled


And then that one smiles back
And that one smiles until in truth
You fail in keeping track
And since a smile can do great good
By cheering hearts of care
Let’s smile and smile and not forget
That smiles go everywhere

Forget the words you thought you knew and start Scooter:
to think computer — Data, programs, software?
Computers change the letters and the numerals humans type
To a number code made up of things that Mr. Chips:
we call bits and bytes Data is information
Data means the facts
Scooter: It’s everything you store in me
Bits and bytes? For solving problems back
A program means directions
Mr. Chips: That tell me what to do
Think computer, Scooter How to analyze my data
A byte is several digits all standing in a row And find answers just for you
They help present a letter or a number that you know And Software is just another name for all the instructions
For instance when you write an “A” of programs that you feed me
This byte is what I see
And 00110011 is my way of saying “3.” Scooter:
This bit is one little bit of a byte Here I am and there you stand, we’re closer than we seem
Though I am a human and you are a machine
Scooter: I’ll get a book on BASIC and as quickly as I can
I get it — bits and bytes are sort of a computer’s alphabet. I will talk computer, and you will understand
We didn’t do too badly, did we Mr. Chips?

Mr. Chips:
It was pretty amazing, Scooter.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow Wizard of Oz Songs .
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There’s a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow


Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Some day I’ll wish upon a star


And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow


Blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, then, oh why can’t I?

If happy little blue birds fly


Above the rainbow
Why, oh why can’t I?

Song of Dixie Shanna Watson Songs .
About my Dixie
Oh won’t you come and sing
Did you say Dixie?
That has a welcome ring

Where the old Mississippi rolls its lazy way


Proud white cotton bolls a-poppin’ on a hot bright day
Watermelon growin’ honey suckle vine
green Magnolia tree
Smell of Southern cookin’
Coon dog huntin’ time, pictures for the memory
From air a song or a rhythm will ensnare your feet
Recalling good ole mountain music or the Dixie beat
And, before you’d plann’d, your thought’s in Dixieland

Hearts still tingle with the courage of Confed’rate grey


Oh, the treasur’d recollection of Colonial day
White columned mansion fram’d by mossy bough
coloring the hist’rys page
Land of rich tradition
Echoes of the past brightening the modern age
No matter where you go, no matter what you do
You can’t escape the spirit once it catches you
And you’re caught and you’re held in the spell
that is the South

Song of the Big Tree Region Kathryn J. Allen Songs .
Ride West to the mesas and the mountains
Sail West to the islands of the sea
On reef or ridge or sands
you will know these sunlit lands
By the palm, by the pine and the Joshua tree

When you camp at the foot of a Joshua


Or climb sky high to a pine guarded crest
When you hear the whispered psalm of a tropic palm
Then you will lose your heart to the West

Ride West to the mesas and the mountains


Sail West to the islands of the sea
If you love an island place
lofty height, the reach of space
Seek the palm, seek the pine and the Joshua tree

Song of the Cactus Region Ann Ros Songs .
Oh, it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again
High o’er the mountain lies the glint of the sun
And it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again
The world lies before us, and the day’s just begun

Oh, it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again
High o’er the mountain lies the glint of the sun
And it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again
The world lies before us and the day’s just begun

Roll out, roll out, you doughty cowboys, roll


The cook fire’s blazing and the moon grows dim
Roll out, roll out, and share the chuck pot’s dole
The far horizon shows the dawn’s first rim
So saddle up your pony and pull the girth strap tight
For we’ll be faring onward in the thin cool light

So it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again


High o’er the mountain lies the glint of the sun
And it’s clop, clop, clop, clop, out on the trail again
The world lies before us, and the day’s just begun

Song of the Great Lakes Region Songs .
Follow winding paths through the forest
Follow gentle streams (to) lakes of blue
Follow the star that glows at even

Bring a woodland song to the cities


Bring (the) gleam of stars to tired eyes
Bring home the pathways to tomorrow
From the skies, from the skies

Follow winding paths through the forest


Follow gentle streams to lakes of blue
Follow the star that glows at even
when day is through, day is through

Dream of the day that passed before us

Dream of the wood where Latin voices
chanted low, chanted low

Bring a woodland song to the cities


Bring the gleam of stars to tired eyes
Bring home the pathways to tomorrow

Lose all plumage gay
Young men who breathe its air

Heavy my heart with woe
Ever will be yearning
Cursed be your beauty rare

Cursed be the men you lure
Our love to doom

There is a mission
Down by the old oak tree Chorus:
Down by the mission There’s a web like a spider’s web
There is a fountain Made of silk and light and shadow
Where my love told me Spun by the moon in my room at night
It’s a web made to catch a dream
Chorus: And hold it tight till I awaken
There’s a web like a spider’s web As if to tell me that dreaming’s all right
Made of silver light and shadows
Spun by the moon in my room at night Down in the valley there is a mission
It’s a web made to catch a dream By that old oak tree near the mission
Hold it tight ’til I awaken There’s a fountain where my love told me
As if to tell me my dream is all right
Chorus
On the evening
I was leaving In the evening she was sleeping
My love dreamed of me My love dreamt of me; I was leaving
I was sleeping She was weeping as she said to me
She was weeping
When she said to me Chorus

Chorus I met a stranger, his name was Danger


We rode side by side down in Santa Fe
I met a stranger I killed a man they say, Danger told me to ride
His name was Danger
We rode side by side Chorus
Way down in Santa Fe
I killed a man they say Now if I return, they will hang me
Danger told me, “Ride!” By the old oak tree
By that mission where my love told me

Springfield Mountain Songs .
Oh Springfield Mountain there did dwell
A handsome youth we all knew well
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

One Friday morning he did go


Down to the meadow for to mow
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

And as he mowed across the field


A pizen sarpent bit his heel
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

They took him to his Molly dear


Because he looked so ver-aye queer
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

His Moll-aye had two rub-aye lips


With which the pizen she did sip
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

But Moll-aye had a rotten tooth


Which the pizen struck and killed them both
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

And all their friends both far and near


Did cry and howl, they were so dear
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

The moral is, I’m sure you know


When grass is tall you must not mow
Ta da dee day, tad a dee day

Star-Spangled Banner Francis Scott Key Songs .
Oh, say can you see
By the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Thro’ the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watch’d
Were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof thro’ the night
That our flag was still there
Oh, say, does the star spangled
Banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free
And the home of the brave?

Oh, thus be it ever


When free men shall stand
Between their lov’d homes
And war’s desolation
Blest with vict’ry and peace
May the heav’n rescued land
Praise the pow’r that hath made
And preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must
When our cause it is just
And this be our motto
‘In God is our trust.’
And the star spangled banner
In triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free
And the home of the brave

Stars and Stripes Forever John Philip Sousa Songs .
Let martial note in triumph float
And liberty extend its mighty hand
A flag appears ‘mid thunderous cheers
The banner of the Western land
The emblem of the brave and true
Its folds protect no tyrant crew
The red and white and starry blue
Is freedom’s shield and hope
Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of freedom’s nation

Hurrah for the flag of the free!


May it wave as our standard forever
The gem of the land and the sea
The banner of the right
Let despots remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever

Let eagle shriek from lofty peak


The never-ending watchword of our land
Let summer breeze waft through the trees
The echo of the chorus grand
Sing out for liberty and light
Sing out for freedom and the right
Sing out for Union and its might
O patriotic sons
Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of freedom’s nation

Hurrah for the flag of the free


May it wave as our standard forever
The gem of the land and the sea
The banner of the right
Let despots remember the day
When our fathers with might endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray
That by their might and by their right

Have you seen the old man in the closed down market
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride hand held
loosely by his side
Yesterday papers telling yesterday’s news

Chorus:
So how can you tell me you’re lonely and
Say for you that the sun don’t shine
Let me take you by the hand and lead you
through the streets of London
I’ll show you something to make you
change your mind

Have you seen the old girl who walks


the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She’s no time for talkin’ she just keeps on walkin’
Carrying her home in two carrier bags

Chorus

In the all-night café at a quarter past eleven


Same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
And each tea lasts an hour and wanders home alone

Chorus

Have you seen the old man outside the seaman’s mission
Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears?
And in our winter city the rain cries a little pity
for one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn’t care

Game:
To start, the girls have a partner and form two lines fac-
ing their partner, one in each line. Leave about four feet
between the lines.

For the first stanza, when the girls start to sing, one of
the girls on the end does an action between the lines of
girls. She can dance, skip, twirl, crawl, etc. When this
stanza ends, she should be at the other end of her line.

For the second stanza, her partner does the same thing
as the first girl did between the two lines. She takes her
place at the end of the stanza at the other end of her
line.

On the final stanza, the partners take each other’s


hands and do a “Mexican Hat Dance” while singing
the verse.

Continue singing the song until each pair of girls has


gone.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Songs .
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You’ll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay


Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay

Because I was afraid to speak


When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes

Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You’ll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay


Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay

So when the cat has got your tongue


There’s no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you’ve got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl’s my wife!
She’s supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Sweet Betsy from Pike Songs .
Did you ever hear tell of sweet Betsy from Pike A miner asked, “Betsy, will you dance with me?”
Who crossed the wide prairie with old Uncle Ike “I will that, old hoss, if you don’t make too free;
With two yoke of cattle and one spotted hog But don’t dance me hard, do you want to know why?
A tall Shanghai rooster and a large yellow dog Dog on, but I’m chock full of strong alkali.”

Chorus: Chorus
Singin’ toora-li, loora-li, loora-li, ay
Singin’ toora-li, loora-li, loora-li, ay
Alternate Version
One evening quite early they camped on the Platte
‘Twas near by the road on a green shady flat Did you ever hear of sweet Betsy from Pike
Where Betsy sore-footed lay down to repose Who crossed the wide prairies with her husband, Ike
There was no sounder sleeper than that Pike County rose With two yoke of cattle and one spotted hog
A tall Shanghai rooster and an old yeller dog?
Chorus
Chorus:
They soon reached the desert, where Betsy gave out Sing toorali, oorali, oorali ay
And down in the sand she lay rolling about Sing toorali, oorali, oorali ay
But she got up again with a great deal of pain Sing toorali, oorali, oorali ay
And declared she’d go back to Pike County again Sing toorali, oorali, oorali ay

Chorus The alkali desert was burning and bare


And Ike cried in fear, “We are lost, I declare!
The Shanghai ran off and their cattle all died My dear old Pike County, I’ll go back to you.”
That morning the last piece of bacon was fried Said Betsy, “You’ll go by yourself, if you do.”
Poor Ike was discouraged and Betsy got mad
The dog drooped his tail and looked wondrously sad Chorus

Chorus They swam the wide rivers and crossed the tall peaks
They camped on the prairie for weeks upon weeks
They finally stopped on a very high hill They fought off the Indians with musket and ball
And with wonder looked down upon old Placerville And reached California in spite of it all
Ike sighed when he said as he looked all around
“Well, Betsy, my sweet, we might as well go down.” Chorus

Chorus

Old Ike and sweet Betsy attended a dance


Ike wore a pair of his Pike County pants
Sweet Betsy was covered with ribbons and rings
Says Ike, “You’re an angel, but where are your wings?”

Sweet Violets Songs .
Chorus:
Sweet violets, sweeter than the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
Covered all over with sweet violets

There once was a farmer who took a young miss


In back of the barn where he gave her a
Lecture on horses and chickens and eggs
And told her that she had such beautiful
Manners that suited a girl of her charms
A girl that he wanted to take in his
Washing and ironing and then, if she did
They could get married and raise lots of . . .

Chorus

The girl told the farmer that he’d better stop


And she called her father and he called a
Taxi and got there before very long
‘Cause someone was doing his little girl
Right for a change and so that’s why he said
“If you marry her, son, you’re better off
Single ‘cause it’s always been my belief
Marriage will bring a man nothing but . . .

Chorus

The farmer decided he’d wed any way


And started in planning for his wedding
Suit, which he purchased for only one buck
But then he found out he was just out of
Money and so he got left in the lurch
Standing and waiting in front of the
End of this story which just goes to show
All a girl wants from a man is his . . .

Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay! Henry J. Sayers Songs .
A smart and stylish girl you see You should see me out with Pa
Belle of good society Prim, and most particular
Not too strict, but rather free The young men say, “Ah, there you are!”
Yet as right as right can be! And Pa says, “That’s peculiar!”

Never forward, never bold— “It’s like their cheek!” I say, and so
Not too hot and not too cold Off again with Pa I go—
But the very thing, I’m told He’s quite satisfied—although
That in your arms you’d like to hold! When his back’s turned— ell, you know—

Chorus: Chorus
Ta-ra-ra boom-de-ay!
Ta-ra-ra boom-de-ay! When with swells I’m out to dine
Ta-ra-ra boom-de-ay! All my hunger I resign
Ta-ra-ra boom-de-ay! Taste the food, and sip the wine—
[Repeat] No such daintiness as mine!

I’m not extravagantly shy But when I am all alone


And when a nice young man is nigh For shortcomings I atone!
For his heart I have a try— No old frumps to stare like stone—
And faint away with fearful cry! Chops and chicken on my own!

When the good young man, in haste Chorus


Will support me ’round the waist
I don’t come to, while thus embraced Sometimes Pa says, with a frown
Till of my lips he steals a taste! “Soon you’ll have to settle down—
Have to wear your wedding gown—
Chorus Be the strictest wife in town!”

I’m a timid flow’r of innocence Well, it must come by-and-by—


Pa says that I have no sense— When wed, to keep quiet I’ll try
I’m one eternal big expense But till then I shall not sigh
But men say that I’m just immense! I shall still go in for my—

Ere my verses I conclude Chorus


I’d like it known and understood
Tho’ free as air, I’m never rude—
I’m not too bad and not too good!

Take Me Out of This Camp Songs .
Tune: Take Me Out To The Ballgame

Take me out of this camp, please


Take me out of this zoo
I’m sick and tired of arts and crafts
And diving off all the same crummy rafts
All we do in crafts is make ashtrays
No one I know even smokes
So its smash, mash, bash all the ashtrays
In three quick strokes

When I first came here I liked it


That was two days ago
Since then I’ve made macaroni beads
Bracelets and rings out of dried pumpkin seeds
I’ve made earrings carved out of leather
Brooches and pins, what a joy
But these jewels mean nothing to me
Because I’m a boy!

Alternate Version

Take me out of this camp, please


Take me out of this zoo

Is not my way to have fun

But I wish there were only one!

Take what?
What they think is fair you givin’ your share

Max is talking taxes


Hey, I kept you awake!
For the things your town may need
For the things a country lacks
All good things take green backs
We hear you callin’ Uncle and we’re paying our tax
People do complain
Say their taxes are high
What am I to get in return?

Look around you friend,Max is showin’ you why


With your taxes you support
How we live and how we learn
Now here’s the good news
Many things are tax deductible

Telegraph Line Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Dit dittle dittle dit Your peripheral nerves
Dit dittle dittle dit They go all out
Dittle dittle dit dit! Delivering those messages
Your senses send out
There’s a telegram for you, ma’am From your hearing and touch
And the message is clear To your sight and taste and smell
It says there’s something bugging you They let your brain react
And buzzing in your ear To all the messages they tell
The results can be quite itchy
So what is your reply? Dit dittle dittle dit
Tell your arm to swat that fly! Dit dittle dittle dit
Dit dittle dittle dit
Hey, there’s a telegraph line
You got yours and I got mine There’s a telegram for you, kid
It’s called the nervous system And it’s at an awful time
And everybody understands It says you’ve got to go on stage
Those telegram commands And you forgot your lines
And you know that everybody better listen! You’re gonna be embarassed
‘Cause this telegram’s a rush
The central nervous system Your heart starts beatin’ faster and you blush!
Is the brain and the spine
The brain controls the system Hey, there’s a telegraph line
And the spine is the line You got yours and I got mine
Telegrams come in It’s called the nervous system
To tell what’s happening to you And everybody understands
Then telegrams go out Those telegram commands
To tell your body what to do And you know that everybody better listen!

Dit dittle dittle dit The autonomic system


Dit dittle dittle dit Has a hold of you
Dit dittle dittle dit Controlling automatically
Some things that you do
There’s a telegram for you, sir Your breathing and your heartbeat
Better read it on the spot Just go on naturally
It says your hand is near a stove And when you’re scared, you’re nerves
That’s very, very hot Rev up the speed!
The results can be quite painful
And there’s no time to think Dit dittle dittle dit
Quick! Pull that hand away, and get it to the sink! Dit dittle dittle dit
Dit dittle dittle dit
There’s a telegraph line
You got yours and I got mine Hey, there’s a telegraph line
It’s called the nervous system You got yours and I got mine

Snap your fingers, ready to start
Flap your elbows just for luck
And you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck

Doin’ the Tennessee wiggle walk

Them Not-So-Dry Bones Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Them bones, them bones, them dry bones Now there’s a lot of skeleton
Now they’re the working of the Lord We never get to see
But it holds other little parts
Bones are heard of, but seldom seen That show quite obviously
‘Cept each year ‘round Hallowe’en I’m talkin’ ‘bout those thirty-two
But I’ve got a shockeroo That we all call our teeth
Right now there’s a skeleton locked up inside of you! We gotta feed ‘em right and keep ‘em clean
Ha-ha-ha Or they can come to grief
OUCH! Ow!
Minus bones you’re just a blob
Being framework’s their main job So please remember
All your organs, muscles, too You’ve got to do it while you’re young
They need your bones to hold them safe Feed your bones some good old calcuim
and sound inside for you Drinking milk — a glass or two —
Your heart and lungs are tucked away Will help your bones to stay in shape
In there behind your ribs and do their job for you
Those bones have been protecting them
Since we were little kids Your skeleton
It’s a framework
Look out! Here comes a bonehead play! Yes, yes
Birdin’ his brain Holding you together
Tweet, tweet, tweet Shielding organs, yeah, that’s its job, too!
What a day!

Don’t take much to overwhelm it


But luckily those bones up there work
like a built-in helmet!

Shin bone connected to the knee bone


That means the tibia connects to the patella
Knee bone connected to the thigh bone
That means the patella connects to the femur
And here’s how they really fit together

Ligaments are what link bone to bone


Cartilage that cushions in between
Muscles hook on, by the tendons
So here’s what’s happenin’ in your knees
most ev’rytime you bend ‘em

There is a Tavern in the Town F. J. Adams Songs .
There is a tavern in the town, in the town
And there my dear love sits him down, sits him down
And drinks his wine ‘mid laughter free
And never, never thinks of me

Chorus:
Fare thee well, for I must leave thee
Do not let the parting grieve thee
And remember that the best of friends
must part, must part
Adieu, adieu, kind friends adieu, adieu, adieu
I can no longer stay with you, stay with you
I’ll hang my harp on a weeping willow tree
And may the world go well with thee

He left me for a damsel dark, damsel dark


Each Friday night they used to spark, used to spark
And now my love once true to me
Takes that dark damsel on his knee

Chorus

Oh! dig my grave both wide and deep


wide and deep
Put tombstones at my head and feet, head and feet
And on my breast carve a turtle dove
To signify I died of love

There Was an Old Lady Songs .
There was an old lady who swallowed a fly There was an old lady who swallowed a goat
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly Just opened her throat and swallowed a goat!
Perhaps she’ll die She swallowed the goat to catch the dog
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
There was an old lady who swallowed a spider She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
Perhaps she’ll die I don’t know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she’ll die
There was an old lady who swallowed a bird
How absurd, to swallow a bird! There was an old lady who swallowed a horse
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider She’s dead, of course
That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she’ll die

There was an old lady who swallowed a cat


Imagine that, to swallow a cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she’ll die

There was an old lady who swallowed a dog


What a hog! To swallow a dog!
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wriggled and jiggled and wiggled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don’t know why she swallowed the fly

There Was Once a Little Ship Songs .
There once was a little ship
Took a long, long, long trip
Which had ne- ne- never put to sea
Which had ne- ne- never put to sea

When the crew’s food would not last


For a victim lots were cast
The poor ca- ca- cabin boy was “it”
The poor ca- ca- cabin boy was “it”

To the heavens he made a plea


That he might not eaten be—
Neither fri- fri- fricasseed nor fried
Neither fri- fri- fricasseed nor fried

As the cook made a fire hasty


For that morsel young and tasty
Fish by the thou- thou- thousands jumped on deck
Fish by the thou- thou- thousands jumped on deck

So this timely visitation


Saved a horrid situation
Shall we s- s- sing it all again?
Shall we s- s- sing it all again?

Note:
This song was originally French.

The repeating the last two lines is supposed to sound


like the rocking of a ship.

There We Would Be Kathryn J. Allen Songs .
Where a campfire’s brightly burning
And the land is wide and free
Where the trail is upward turning
There we would be

Where a friendship stands the testing


Building bridges across the sea
Where the goal is worth the questing
There we would be

Where the pairs are gayly swinging


Dancing by with a one-two-and-three
Where the job is done to singing
There we would be

Where there’s youth and life and laughter


Worlds beyond to serve and see
Making dream for ever after
There we would be

Note:
This song may be sung as a four-verse song
or as a four-part round.

Tune: It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

There’s a Santa who looks a lot like Elvis


The King of rock and roll
Take a look at the double chin
He’s weighing about 310
With golden chains and sequined belt below

There’s a Santa who looks a lot like Elvis


Down at the K-mart store
But the scariest sight to see
Is that jolly VIP
In a pompadour

A pair of blue suede boots and a beard with black roots


And a face you knew way back when
A drawl in his talk and a swaggering walk
And the hips that wiggled back then
My mom and dad can barely wait to see the King again

He’s a Santa who looks a lot like Elvis


With every ho ho ho
There’s that faint peanut butter smell
Whenever he says Noel
Those lips are always twitching to and fro

There’s a Santa who looks a lot like Elvis


Soon the band will start
And the thing that would pleasure Bing
Is a carol by the King
Right here in K-mart

With flame of freedom in their souls
And light of science in their eyes

They shall be gentle, brave, and strong


To spill no drop of blood, but dare
All that may plant man’s lordship firm
On earth and fire and sea and air

Nation with nation, land with land


Inarmed shall live as comrades free
In every heart and brain shall throb
The pulse of one fraternity

New arts shall bloom of loftier mould


And mightier music thrill the skies
And every life shall be a song
When all the earth is paradise

Thing Songs .
While I was walking down the beach one I wandered on for many years a victim of my fate
bright and sunny day Until, one day, I came upon St. Peter at the gate
I saw a great big wooden box a floating in the bay And when I tried to take it inside
I pulled it in and opened it up and much to my surprise he told me where to go
Oooh, I discovered a (stomp - stomp - stomp) Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp)

Oooh, I discovered a (stomp - stomp - stomp) Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp)

I picked it up and ran to town as happy as a king The moral of this story is if you’re out on the beach
I took it to a guy I knew who’d buy most anything. And you should see a great big box
But this is what he hollered at me as and it’s within’ my reach
I walked in his shop Don’t ever stop and open it up, that’s my advice to you
Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp) ‘Cause you’ll never get rid of that
before I call a cop (stomp - stomp - stomp) no matter what you do
Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp) ‘Cause you’ll never get rid of that

And then I took it home to give it to my wife
But this is what she hollered at me as
I wallied in the door
Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp)
and don’t come back no more
Oooh, get out of here with that (stomp - stomp - stomp)
and don’t come back no more

I wandered all around the town until I chanced to meet

He said he’d take most anything —

This for That Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
When we lived in caves Then China made money even more desirous
There were no shopping malls Printing it on paper made of crushed papyrus
And people’s manners were Neanderthal Take one from Column A and one from Column B
No bodegas, no delis, no corner stores The Chinese paid their checks in paper currency
Shopping trips turned into tugs of war When Columbus set out on that famous charter
When not having pull got this man mangled He had no paper money, so he had to barter
He thought he’d try an easier angle He took along some beads for currency
I’ll give you this for that So barter played a part in our discovery
That for this Balboa and Pisarro and Sebastian Cabot
We’ll make a trade called “barter” Even Coronado had the trading habit
I’ll give you this for that
That for this I’ll give you this for that
We’ll have it made with barter That for this
They loaded up with gold, then parted
Now, barter worked well I’ll give you this for that
At least in theory That for this
But a wallet full of yaks And soon the whole world was charted
Could make you weary
Making change for a cow Today we use cash and spend with ardor
Wasn’t easy to master But that doesn’t mean we don’t still barter
Unless you were ready When a football team needs a pulling guard
For an “udder” disaster Or a kid like you is into trading cards
Shiny shells were far more portable
Why not use them for what’s affordable? Take this for that
That for this
I’ll give you this for that Bills and coins are smarter
That for this But when you pay for that
With shiny shells, why barter? Remember this
I’ll give you this for that It all started out with barter
That for this
Shelling out shells is smarter

For farmers in ancient Mesopotamia


The barley they grew was the money mania
When hauling big sacks put their backs in traction
They invented coins to lighten transactions
Now, when a man had a debt to settle
He’d dig out some coins made of precious metal

I’ll give you this for that


That for this
Silver or gold or copper
I’ll give you this for that
That for this
With coins you’re a smarter shopper

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the redwood forest
to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and me

As I went walking that ribbon of highway


I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me

Chorus

I roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps


To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
All around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me

Chorus

When the sun came shining then I was strolling


And the wheat field waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice was chanting as the fog was lifting
This land was made for you and me

Three Bears Songs .
Once upon a time in a wee little forest
there were three bears
Cha, cha

One was the papa bear


One was the mama bear
One was the wee bear
Cha, cha

One day they were walking in the deep woods a-talking


When along came a little girl and
her name was Goldilocks
And upon the door she knocked
but no one was there, no no one was there
So she walked right in, had herself a ball
She didn’t care, no she didn’t care
And when she got tired she went upstairs
Home, home, home came the three bears
Cha, cha

Someone’s been eating my porridge


said the papa bear, hunh
Someone’s been eating my porridge
said the mama bear, woo
Hey-bobba-ree-bear said the little wee bear
someone has broken my chair
Just then Goldilocks woke up
and broke up the story and beat it out of there

Goodbye-bye-bye said the papa bear


Goodbye-bye-bye said the mama bear
Hey-bobba-ree-bear said the little wee bear
And that’s the story of the three little bears
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Three times six is 18, three times five is 15

Every triangle has three corners They had three in the family
Every triangle has three sides That’s a magic number
No more, no less

Titanic Songs .
Oh, they built the ship Titanic to sail the ocean blue Alternate Version
And they thought they had a ship that
the water wouldn’t go through Oh, they sailed away from England
But the good Lord raised his hand, said And were almost to the shore
“The ship would never land.” When the rich refused to associate with the poor
It was sad when the great ship went So they put them down below
down, down, down Where they’d be the first to go. . .
It was sad when the great ship went down
Chorus:
It was sad so sad, it was sad, alleluia Chorus:
It was sad when the great ship went down Oh it was sad
to the bottom of the sea Oh it was sad—
Uncles and aunts, little children lost their parents
It was sad when the great ship went Spoken:
down, down, down TOO BAD

They were nearing to the shore, when It was sad when


the water began to pour The great ship went down
And the rich refused to associate with the poor To the bottom of the sea
So they sent them down below where Husbands and wives, little children lost their lives
they’d be the first to go Or uncles and aunts little children lost their pants
It was sad when the great ship went It was sad when the great ship went down
down, down, down
Oh the moral of the story as you can plainly see
Chorus Is to wear a life preserver when you go out to sea
The Titanic never made it across the raging sea
Lady Astor turned around just to see
It was sad when the great ship went down
her husband drown
As the ship Titanic made a gurgling sound
Chorus
So she wraped herself in mink
as the ship began to sink
It was sad when the great ship when
down, down, down

Chorus

Now the moral of the story is very plain to see


You should wear a life preserver when
you go out to sea
The Titanic never made it and never more shall be
It was sad when the great ship went
down, down, down
Kerplunk, it sunk to the bottom of the sea

And baby is sleeping so cozy and sweet
Oh, baby, don’t cry now, but be very goot
And when papa comes home he’ll bring you cigaroot

When four o’clock comes, and the child sleeps no more
Then papa stays up all night pacing the floor!

Travels Songs .
As I have traveled all over this world
There’s one sad thing that I find
When the wide road calls you must leave friends and all
Leaving a song behind, for a while
Leaving a song behind

Chorus:
One for the money, sing for a penny
Two for the show, any song that I know
Three to get ready, the wide road is calling
And four to go, well it’s been good to know you
And four to go, I’ve a long way to go

Some value money and some value fame


Some value women and wine
But a song and a friend at the turn of the bend
Are riches I’d rather were mine, anytime
Riches I’d rather were mine.

When I am gone, may my wish linger on


And its echo fall soft on your ears
May you all live in peace, may your wisdom increase
And your happiness grow through the years, my friends
May your happiness grow through the years

Tree Toad Songs .
Tune: Auld Lang Syne

A tree toad loved a fair she toad


That lived up in a tree
She was a fair three-toed tree toad
But a two-toed toad was he

The two-toed tree toad tried to win


The she toad’s friendly nod
For the two-toed tree toad loved the ground
That the three-toed tree toad trod

Now three-toed tree toads have no care


For two-toed tree toad love
But the two-toed tree toad fain would share
A tree home up above

In vain the two-toed tree toad tried


He couldn’t please her whim
In her tree toad bower with veto power
The she toad vetoed him

And get some food tonight

Try to get the treats before
The ghost takes us away!

It’s Thanksgiving time again
Still you strut around with pride
When you should take off and hide
Nice big bird we have a date

Turkey in the Straw Songs .
As I was a-goin’ Did you ever go fishin’
On down the road On a warm summer day
With a tired team When all the fish
And a heavy load Were swimmin’ in the bay
I cracked my whip With their hands in their pockets
And the leader sprung And their pockets in their pants
I says day-day Did you ever see a fishie
To the wagon tongue Do the hootchy-kootchy dance?

Roll ‘em up and twist ‘em up
A high tuck a-haw
And hit ‘em up a tune called
Turkey in the straw

Went out to milk


And I didn’t know how
I milked the goat
Instead of the cow
A monkey sittin’
On a pile of straw
A-winkin’ at
His mother-in-law

Chorus

I came to the river


And I couldn’t get across
So I paid five dollars
For a big bay hoss
Well, he wouldn’t go ahead
And he wouldn’t stand still
So he went up and down
Like an old saw mill

Turn Ye to Me Songs .
The stars are burning cheerily, cheerily
Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me
The seamew is moaning drearily, drearily
Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me
Cold is the stormwind that ruffles his breast
But warm are the downy plumes lining his next
Cold blows the storm there, soft falls the snow there
Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me

The waves are dancing merrily, merrily


Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me
The seabirds are wailing wearily, wearily
Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me
Hushed be thy moaning, lone bird of the sea
Thy home on the rocks is a shelter to thee
Thy house the angry wave, mine but the lonely grave
Horo Mhairidhu, turn ye to me

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

When the blazing sun is gone


When he nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

Then the trav’ller in the dark


Thanks you for your tiny spark
He could not see where to go
If you did not twinkle so
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

In the dark blue sky you keep


While you through my window peep
And you never shut your eye
Till the sun is in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are

Looked in the pool but no elf did I see


Gazing at me from the water I saw just me!

Two little fleas together sat


They cried when one flea said

And farther will I roam
But the next old dog that shows his face
Will be my home sweet home.”

Tyrannosaurus Debt Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Tour Guide: Tour Guide:
To your left, folks, is the Washington Monument, to your The Civil War ran up a debt of almost three billion dollars
right, the White House. And over there, just beyond the that still wasn’t paid off by World War One.
Capitol, is the National Debt!
We’re spending money we don’t have
Tourists: Or so it would appear
Oooo! Wow! The deficit is that amount we overspend each year
Though congressmen and senators
There’s something huge Make vows to cut its size
Red, white, and blue Despite their honest efforts
That’s grazing in D.C. The debt just seems to rise
It’s gobbling up the taxes
That are paid by you and me Tour Guide:
It doesn’t seem to notice Now the debt’s over 4 trillion dollars and still growing . . .
We really can’t afford
The billions that it’s costing us A balanced budget would be great
To pay its room and board To spend within our means
To stop the monster in its tracks
It doesn’t roam Before we bust our seams
But seems content It feeds on just the interest
To dwell on Capitol Hill Its appetite is whet
As long as trucks keep pulling up It never, ever stops to rest
With tons of green-back bills Tyrannosaurus Debt
We’ve got to feed the big guy
We really can’t forget Tour Guide:
It has an awesome appetite And this is the U.S. Treasury. It sells Treasury Bonds, bills,
Tyrannosaurus Debt and notes, and savings bonds to finance the debt. The U.S.
government promises to pay the owner interest plus the value
Tour Guide: of each bond at a future date.
The debt was born in 1790 when our new government took
over 75 million the colonies spent in the Revolutionary War. We’ve got to try to tame the debt
And bring it down to size
We’ve got to feed the monster To let it grow unchecked like this
So it doesn’t get upset Is certainly unwise
It’s got an awesome appetite The debt’s a monster problem
Tyrannosaurus Debt That we really can’t ignore
I guess we should be grateful
Tour Guide: That it’s not a carnivore
Alexander Hamilton, our first Secretary of the Treasury (he’s We’ve got to keep on servicing
on the 10, you know), wanted a federal debt to provide a Our trillion dollar pet
reason to establish taxes to support our new nation. It’s got a monster appetite
Tyrannosaurus Debt
The debt was young, they kept it small
They didn’t know back then A fiscal misadventure
In 1812 another war would make it grow again With trillion dollar dentures
By ‘66 the Civil War had cost the nation millions Tyrannosaurus Debt
The government in Washington now had a debt of billions
Tour Guide:
Feeding time is ALL the time

Unicorn Song Songs .
A long time ago when the earth was green Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
There was more kinds of animals than you’d ever seen Them unicorns were hiding, playing silly games
They’d run around free while the earth was being born Kicking and splashing while the rain was pouring
But the loveliest of them all was the unicorn Oh, them silly unicorns

There was green alligators There was green alligators and long-necked geese
And long-necked geese Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
Some humpy back camels And Noah cried, “Close the door cause
And some chimpanzees the rain is pouring
Some cats and rats and elephants but sure as you’re born And we just can’t wait for them old unicorns.”
The loveliest of all was the unicorn
The ark started moving, a-drifting with the tides
Now God seen some sinnin’ Them unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried
And it gave Him a pain And the waters came down and sort
And He says, “Stand back! I’m gone to make it rain.” of floated them away
He says, “Hey, Brother Noah, I’ll tell you what to do And that’s why you’ll never see a unicorn to this very day
Build me a floating zoo. And take some of them . . .
You’ll see green alligators and long-necked geese
Green alligators and long-necked geese Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees Some cats and rats and elephants
Some cats and rats and elephants But sure as you’re born
But sure as you’re born You’re never gonna see no unicorns
Don’t you forget my unicorns.”

Old Noah was there to answer the call


He finished up making the ark
Just as the rain started falling
He marched in the animals two by two
And he called out as they went through

“Hey, Lord, I’ve got your green alligators


And long-necked geese
Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants
But, Lord, so forlorn
I just can’t see no unicorns.”

United Nations Hymn Angela Morgan Songs .
Thou whose breathing fills our bodies
Thou whose pulse the worlds obey
Tune our mind to heed Thy rhythm
Known along the starry way
Swing the nations to Thy measure
Bid men’s hatreds turn to song
Fill us, thrill us with Thy music
End earth’s bitterness and wrong

Thou whose order rules the atom


Thou whose low propels the sea
Bring, oh, bring Thy warring peoples
Close within Thy harmony
God of beauty, heal our madness
God of love, our battles end
Show the unity that binds us
Foe to foe, or friend to friend

Thou who lightest with Thy glory


Leaf and lake and cloud and star
Light the hearts of man to justice
Show us kindred as we are
Pour Thy mighty joy upon us
Thou whose grandeur filleth space
Claim Thy cosmic sons and daughters
Unify the human race

Unpack Your Adjectives Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Got home from camping last spring
Saw people, places and things
We barely had arrived
Friends asked us to describe
The people, places and every last thing
So we unpacked our adjectives

I unpacked “frustrating” first


Reached in and found the word “worst.”
Then I picked “soggy” and
Next I picked “foggy” and
Then I was ready to tell them my tale
‘Cause I’d unpacked my adjectives

Adjectives are words you use to really describe things


Handy words to carry around
Days are sunny or they’re rainy
Boys are dumb or else they’re brainy
Adjectives can show you which way

Adjectives are often used to help us compare things


To say how thin, how fat, how short, how tall
Girls who are tall can get taller
Boys who are small can get smaller
Till one is the tallest
And the other’s the smallest of all

We hiked along without care


Then we ran into a bear
He was a hairy bear
He was a scary bear
We beat a hasty retreat from his lair
And described him with adjectives

Next time you go on a trip


Remember this little tip
The minute you get back
They’ll ask you this and that
You can describe people, places and things . . .
Simply unpack your adjectives
You can do it with adjectives
Tell them ‘bout it with adjectives
You can shout it with adjectives

The milkman and the postman
And policeman I did meet
There is ev’ry window
At ev’ry single door
I recognized people
I’d never noticed before

Up, up with people
You meet ‘em wherever you go
Up, up with people
They’re the best kind of folks we know
If more people were for people
All people ev’rywhere
There’d be a lot less people to worry about
And a lot more people who care!

People from the southland


And people from the north
Like a mighty army
I saw them coming forth
‘Twas a great reunion
Befitting of a king
Then, I realized people
Were more important than things
Da da da da da

Chorus

Inside ev’rybody there’s some bad and there’s some good


But don’t let anybody
Start attacking peoplehood
Love them as they are
But fight for them to be
Great men and great women

Walkin’ ‘Round in Frozen Underwear Songs .
Tune: Winter Wonderland

Weather news
Wasn’t list’nin
Storm came through
Room is glist’nin
My window was up
Got covered in fluff
Walkin’ round in frozen underwear

I can hardly climb the stairs for breakfast


The frosting makes me walk like Frankenstein
Mom and dad are saying you’ll be late, hon
But they don’t understand
There’s ice on my behind

Later on, they’ll be thawin’


Think I’ll freeze a couple more then
When the troop meets tonight
I look cool alright
Walkin’ ‘round in frozen underwear!

Walkin’ on Wall Street Schoolhouse Rock Songs .
Newsboy: You gotta be smart
Extra! Extra! Latest Wall Street prices! When you’re walkin’ on Wall Street
So just for a start
Lester: I check the paper each day
Here’s a quarter. Keep the change! First, I read the comics
Then I check the sports
You gotta be cool And then I take a look at the market reports
When you’re walkin’ on Wall Street To see if my stock is riding low or high
Like goin’ to school So I know when to sell, and I know when to buy
You learn a lot every day
And this is the rule Lester:
When you’re walkin’ on Wall Street Oh, oh! Here’s a dime. Keep the change. Stock prices
Buy low, sell high go up and down so smart investors like me buy a little at
Take a piece of the pie a time every month. That way, we can watch the ups
That’s the Wall Street way and downs average out in the long run. Leroy calls that
“dollar cost averaging.”
Lester:
When you use your money to make more money, that’s I don’t wanna get hurt
called an investment. When you invest in a corporation, When I’m walkin’ on Wall Street
that means you own your own share of it. I could lose my shirt
Not to mention my cash
The companies that manufacture things we use So I stay alert
Like telescopes and videos and high-top shoes When I’m walkin’ on Wall Street
Are looking for investors such as me and you Buy low, sell high
So we can own shares in the company too Take my piece of the pie

Lester: Newsboy:
That’s called “stock.” Smart investors look to buy stock Read all about it! Latest Wall Street flash: Whiz Bang
in a company that's going up in value. Cola is on the rise!

Here’s a stock that’s looking mighty good, I think Well, I came out ahead
Whiz Bang Cola — that’s my favorite drink And I’m swingin’ on Wall Street
Looks as if their sales are going up sky-high And just like I said
Better call my broker and tell him to buy I’m learning more every day
So remember the rule
Lester: When you’re walkin’ on Wall Street
Hello, Leroy? This is Lester the Investor. Whiz Bang Buy low, sell high
Cola’s going up. Buy some stock for me! Take your piece of the pie

Leroy: Lester:
OK, Lester! Confirming your order: buy Whiz Bang Here’s a dollar. Keep the change.
Cola at eight and a quarter.
That’s the Wall Street way
Lester:
All right!

Warner’s Lot Animaniacs Songs .
Tune: Gilligan’s Island

Just listen up and you’ll hear a tale


A tale of the Warner three
Went on the water tower
They did try to flee

They shot into the puffy clouds


Some seeds to make it rain
And rain it did, so much in fact
The tower floated away
All around L.A.

When the rain dried up


The tower was aground
On the Burbank lot
The Warner Brothers then escaped
With their sister Dot
And they took off like a shot

Now they’re being chased around


The Warner studio
By Scratchansniff
And Hello Nurse
The CEO
Ralph the Guard
Some movie stars
The Professor and Mary Ann

Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent word is pleading

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh


Come, peasant, king to own him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him

Scooping honey from two bowls Two white mice unrav’ling string

Two young monkeys up a tree
Scraping carrots—one, two, three

When Irish Eyes are Smiling Chauncey Olcott and George Graff, Jr. Songs .
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure it’s like a morning spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, they steal your heart away

There’s a tear in your eye


And I’m wondering why
For it never should be there at all
With such power in your smile
Sure a stone you’d beguile
So there’s never a teardrop should fall
When your sweet lilting laughter’s like some fairy song
And your eyes twinkle bright as can be
You should laugh all the while and all other times smile
And now smile a smile for me

Chorus:
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure it’s like a morning spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, they steal your heart away

Dad: What could I do?
We can stop buying groceries
But that might be a mistake Dad:
‘Cause eating is a habit I be loath to try and break We could really lower the phone bill
If you’d limit the length of your calls. Bye
We can stop paying income tax You could probably put some money in your savings bank
But they might send me to jail If you skip one trip to the mall
And if we don’t pay the mortgage We’d spend a little less on electricity
Then they’ll take our house If you turn off the light when you leave
Then where would we get our mail? And we could save a lot on our laundry bills
If you’d watch where you put your sleeve!
If not for all these bills and taxes You could bring a little in with a part time job
Our income would more than suffice All we ask is you do your best
I feel like a real big cheese
Until everybody takes a slice! If you earn a little here
And save a little there
I don’t want to bore you We’ll try to come up with the rest
With my troubles or my woes We can’t stop the money from trickling out
Still you’re old enough to know But we can control how it flows
where all the money goes
And we can start by being aware of
We don’t have to pay for furniture Where the money goes
If you want to learn upholstering
We don’t really need to pay the phone bill Where is my money?
We can use tin cans and a string. It’s bedtime My money!

If we went off and lived in a cave It’s gone
And if you’re planning on inheriting a million bucks

Once a mighty soldier
beloved by his fellow men
Under the shade of the flag of the free
Took some youth and trained them
Taught them to be brave and true

Keep on a-working, never a-shirking


Carry out the rules as you know them to be
And we’ll sing as we put our shoulders
and our brains to work
Who’ll come a-Scouting, a-Scouting with me
Soon the little band grew, swelling to great number
Through other countries, one, two, three
Then around the world it spread, stronger, ever stronger
Who’ll come a-Scouting, a-Scouting with me

Winter Wonderland Dick Smith, Felix Bernard Songs .
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird


Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman


Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He’ll say: Are you married?
We’ll say: No man
But you can do the job
When you’re in town

Later on, we’ll conspire


As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we’ve made
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman


And pretend that he’s a circus clown
We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down

When it snows, ain’t it thrilling


Though your nose gets a chilling
We’ll frolic and play, the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland

Walking in a winter wonderland


Walking in a winter wonderland

Our way is clear as we march on
And see our flag on high
Is never furled throughout the world
For hope shall never die!
We must unite for what is right
In friendship true and strong
Until the earth
In its rebirth
Shall sing our song!
Shall sing our song!

Whose promises were kept
With humble minds, whose acts were kind
Whose honor never slept
These were the free!
And we must be
Prepared like them to live
To give to all
Both great and small
All we can give!

Worm Song Songs .
The earth was wet with the dew of the dawn
As the warm scented air swept over the lawn
A big fat worm came out of the ground
To see the world and to look around
And as he gazed at the azure sky
Another little worm came up nearby
Said he, with a wiggle, “You’re a cute little worm
Let’s you and I go out for a squirm
I could easily fall in love with you
If you’ll condescend to a rendezvous.”
But the cute little worm just shook its head
And to the big fat worm it said
“No rendezvous between us two
‘Cause I’m the other end of you.”

Worms Crawl In, The Songs .
If you should see a hearse go by Alternate Version
You’ll know that you are the next to die
They wrap you up in a big white sheet Did you ever think
And bury you down about six feet deep As the hearse rolls by
That sooner or later
It all goes well for about a week You’re goin’ to die
And then the coffin begins to leak With your boots a-swingin’
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out From the back of a roan
The mice play pinochle on your snout And the undertaking
Inscribin’ your stone?
One little worm that isn’t so shy
Craws in your ear and out your eye The men with shovels
Your eyes they turn a gushy green All stand around
Your stomach turns to whipped ice-cream They shovel you in
You spread it all on a piece of bread To that cold, wet ground
And that’s what you eat when you’re dead They shovel in dirt
Then they throw in rocks
They don’t give a hoot
If they break the box

Oh, the worms crawl in


And the worms crawl out
They give a little squirm
And they turn about
Then each one takes
A bite or two
Of an arm or a leg
Or another part of you!

Oh, your eyes drop out


And your teeth fall in
And the worms crawl over
Your mouth and chin
They bring all their friends
And their friends’ friends, too
And you’re chewed all to bits
When they’re through with you!

Would You Like to Swing on a Star? Songs .
Would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams in a jar?
Or be better of than you are?
Or would you rather be a mule?
A mule?
A mule is an animal with long funny ears
He kicks up at everything he hears
His back is brawny and his brain is weak
He’s just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
But by the way you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a mule

Would you like to swing on a star?


Carry moonbeams in a jar?
Or be better of than you are?
Or would you rather be a pig?
A pig?
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
He’s got no manners when he eats his food
He’s fat and lazy and extremely rude
But if you don’t give a feather or a fig
You may grow up to be a pig

Would you like to swing on a star?


Carry moonbeams in a jar?
Or be better of than you are?
Or would you rather be a fish?
A fish?
A fish is an animal who swims in a brook
He can’t write his name or read a book
To fool people is his only thought
And though he’s slippery he still gets caught
But if that sort of life is what you wish
You may grow up to be a fish

And all the monkeys aren’t in the zoo


Everyday you see quite a few
So you see it’s all up to you
You could be better off than you are
You could be swinging on a star

Stuck a feather in his cap

Yellow Bird Songs .
I saw a bird with a yellow bill
It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in with a piece of bread
And then I whacked it on the head

I saw a bird with a yellow bill


It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in with a piece of cheese
And then I whacked it on the knees

I saw a bird with a yellow bill


It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in with a plate of spaghetti
Then I cut off its wings with my machete

I saw a bird with a yellow bill


It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in with a bottle of Tizer
And then I put it in the liquidiser

I saw a bird with a yellow bill


It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in Spice Girls poster
And then I put it in the pop-up toaster

I saw a bird with a yellow bill


It landed on my window sill
I coaxed it in chicken chow mein
Put a straw up its nose and sucked out its brain

Yellow Submarine Lennon / McCartney Songs .
In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine


Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all on board

Many more of them live next door


And the band begins to play

We all live in our yellow submarine


Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
As we live a life of ease

Everyone of us has all we need


Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine


Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine

Pail in her hand
All is well planed

Hear her bracelets sing a tune

But up on a rainy morning


Down she slid without a warning
Down in the well
How she did yell

To the well the people hurried


And wih them I also scurried
But what to do
I only knew

Lower’d then by the stoutest cord


Saved her whom I’ve long adored
Dear Yerakina
Now is my own

Yonder lies the world before us
Land and sea and lofty mountains

Though the sky be dark with storm clouds
We will put our trust in Heaven

Chorus:
Our noble standard, the golden trefoil
We’ll proudly raise to heav’n above
We’ll face the future with joy and courage
And build a new world with our love

Glorious songs awake and banish


Sleep, for we too long have slumbered
Right shall triumph, wrong shall vanish
And the days of wrath are numbered
Sister Guides, ours is now the task to greet it
Greet the day now to us so fast returning
O’er the earth’s dark rim the rays strike
In the east the clouds are burning

Chorus

Truth alone shall be our duty


And with joy our hearts are ringing
We will fill the world with beauty
We will fill the world with singing

To go forth joyfully to build His dwelling
Let us rouse the weary hearted
To a glory past all telling

It helps keep your insides in

And inside it you put lemon meringue
And outside you hang your clothes

Skin is what you feel at home in

Oo-oo-oo-oo
