Aardvark in the Park The Airplane Song

There’s a large dark aardvark in the park Open your song book to page 13.
They say he’s missing from the zoo If I had the wings of an airplane, airplane
The police are looking high and low, Up in the sky I would fly, would fly
They haven’t seen him, have you? If I had the wings of an airplane, airplane
Oh I’ll tell you the reason, I’d fly till the day I would die, would die
Because it’s aardvark mating season!
When an aardvark makes a date Chorus: Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la, repeat
You know he slips right through that old zoo gate Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la, again
So if you see two aardvarks playing in the park Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la, once more
Don’t upset their apple cart. Ooh la la, ooh la la, la, the end
Why? Close your song book
You are not a spy, you’re not the FBI,
And you should never break an aardvark’s heart!

 Animal Song
Alligator
Animals are lots of fun
*Alligator, alligator They’re big and round and hairy
Can be your friend, can be your friend, can be your friend, Some have teeth and some have claws
too* And some are rather scary.
And I would go to the animal zoo
The alligator is my friend, he can be your friend too
If only you would understand that he has feelings too * With lots of money to buy them
And I would bring one home to you
The alligator laughs and plays, he never sings the blues If I knew how to fly them.
I’d rather have him on my shirt than have him for my shoes * Dum de dum de dum dum dum

The alligator ate my friend, he can eat your friend too, Lions they are lots of fun
If only you would understand that he gets hungry too * They’re big and round and furry
And I would bring one home to you
Bring one home in a hurry
And I would go to the African plain
All My Life’s a Circle And there I’d try to trap him
And I would bring one home to you
All my life’s a circle, If I knew how to wrap him.
Sunrise to sundown. Dum de dum de dum dum dum
The moon rolls through the evening
‘Til the daylight comes around. Elephants are lots of fun
All my life’s a circle, They’re big and round and pleasant
But I can’t tell you why And I would bring one home to you
Seasons spinning ‘round again As an elephant present.
The years keep rolling by. And I would go to the animal zoo
With lots of peanuts to bribe him
And I would bring one home to you
Always If I knew how to hide him.
Dum de dum de dum dum dum.
Oh you are my friend, and I’ll walk with you always
I’ll stay by your side and I’ll walk with you always Polar bears are lots of fun
Always, always, I’ll walk with you always They’re big and round and real white.
Always, always, I’ll walk with you always And I would bring one home to you
 Bring one home on a plane flight. Apple Trees
And I would go to the north pole
And there I’d try to lure him Underneath the rising moon, silver mists are dancing
And I would bring one home to you Soft the lilac’s sweet perfume, fills the night entrancing
If I knew I wouldn’t hurt him. White and ghostly in the gloom,
Dum de dum de dum dum dum. Stands the apple trees in bloom
Apple trees in bloom, apple trees in bloom
Wallabies are lots of fun
They’re big and round and jumpy. (a round to be started after the first line)
And I would bring one home to you
Just so you could have comp’ny
And I would go to Australia The Ash Grove
And there I’d try to tag him.
And I would bring one home to you Down yonder green valley where streamlets meander
If I knew I wouldn’t gag him. When twilight is fading I pensively rove
Dum de dum de dum dum dum Or at the bright noon-tide 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
Announcements The ash grove entrancing spells beauty for me

Announcements, announcements, announcements

Auld Lang Syne
A terrible death to die, a terrible death to die
A terrible death, a terrible death, Should old acquaintance be forgot
A terrible death to die And never brought to mind,
Should old acquaintance be forgot
Make announcements short and sweet, In days of Auld Lang Syne
Short and sweet, short and sweet. For Auld Lang Syne, my dear
Make announcements short and sweet, For Auld Lang Syne
‘Cause they are boring. We’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
In days of Auld Lang Syne
__(name)__ has another one, another one, another one
__(name)__ has another one, she has them all the time. (To be sung with “I Understand”)
 Austrian Yodeling Baby Day

Once an Austrian went yodeling Why sleep when the day has been brought up by the sun?
On a mountain so high. From the night, when the light’s gonna shine on everyone
When along came a cuckoo bird Why sleep when sleep only closes up our eyes?
Interrupting his cry: Why sleep when we can watch the sun arise? *

*Oh, da la, oh da la kiki, oh da la cuckoo cuckoo *We were meant to see the beginning of the day
Oh da la kiki, oh da la cuckoo cuckoo I believe it was planned to lift us this way
Oh… Take you an apple and take you a song,
And watch the baby day be born*
(add other verses with different sounds as desired,
i.e. grizzly bear, etc.) Quite, quite, said I, that’s all very well to say
When I woke at the dawn, to your singing yesterday
I couldn’t see the light ‘cause the dark was in my skies
I couldn’t see the sun ‘cause the sun was in my eyes *

Baby Bumble Bee “Why sleep?” I heard and I followed it today,

To the top of the hill, where the wind-songs play
I’m bringing home my baby bumble bee I know it like I heard it, why I heard it who knows why
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me Why sleep when we can watch the sun arise?
I’m bringing home my baby bumble bee.
Ouch! It stung me! We were meant to see the beginning of the day
I believe it was meant to lift us this way
I’m squishing up my baby bumble bee Take you an apple and take you a song
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me Take back an answer to something gone wrong
I’m squishing up my baby bumble bee Take you some music and take me along
Ewww! It’s all over me! And watch the baby day be born

I’m licking up my baby bumble bee

Won’t my mommy be so proud of me, Baby Duck
I’m licking up my baby bumble bee.
Ugh, I don’t feel so good! Wasn’t it a bit of luck that I was born a baby duck?
With yellow sucks and yellow shoes
So I can go wherever I choose.
Quack! Quack! Quack-quack-quack! Yay Ducks!
 Balloons
Baby Lima
Green and yellow balloons make me happy
I think that I would like to be The red ones they make me feel sad
A baby lima or a pea. But tomorrow the red ones will make me feel silly
Living snuggly in my pod And the next day balloons are just fads *
In my green and tender bod.
*Friends let me cheer you, let me sing you a song
Let me tell you a tale of today
Let me create a moment, let me make the world move on
Let me live life just for today*

Back of the Bread When you see out your window some rain
I’ll ask you to come out and play
In back of the bread is the flour But you’ll stay in your dry house and ask me to come in
In back of the flour is the mill But today I like rainy days
In back of the mill is the wind and the rain
And the creator’s will.

Bamboo
Backwards Song
I walked up the door and opened the stairs You take a stick of bamboo, you take a stick of bamboo,
Said my pajamas and put on my prayers You take a stick of bamboo, and you throw it on the water *
Turned off my bed and jumped into the light
All because you kissed me, goodnight *Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-na
When I woke up in the morning I scrambled my shoes The river, she comes down
Shined up and egg and toasted my shoes The river, she comes down*
Buttered my tie and had another bite
All because you kissed me, never could resist me I travel on the river, I travel on the river,
All because you kissed me, goodnight I travel on the river, and I travel on the water *

My home’s across the river…

and my home’s across the water *

Barges Beans

Out of my window, looking in the night My dog Lima likes to roam

I can see the barges’ flickering lights My dog Lima, she left home
Silently flows the river to the sea She came back, quite unclean
And the barges do go silently * Where, oh where, has Lima bean?

*Barges, I would like to go with you Lima bean, lime bean, where, oh where has Lima bean?
I would like to sail the ocean blue Lima bean, lime bean, where, oh where has Lima bean?
Barges, are there treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates, brave and bold?* (other possible verses: black, Mexican jumping,
human, state of, kidney, lentil, franks and, etc.
Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges’ flickering lights
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red Belly Button Song
I can see the barges dead ahead *
*Me likes to care for me belly button
How my heart longs to sail away with you Me likes to keep it nice and clean
As you sail across the ocean blue Cause if me neglects me belly button
But I must stay beside my window, dear In it grows a fungus green
As I watch you sail away from here Fungus dance!
Do do do do, Do do do do, Do do do do, do do do*

Bazooka Bubblegum When me was a little baby,

My mother looked and she adored
1.) My mom gave me a penny The doctor gave me a belly button,
She said go buy a henny When he cut off the umbilical cord *
But I didn’t buy no henny
 In the winter I wear a sweater, And so I jumped° into the air°,
The one that my aunt Nellie sent
But I missed that branch° away up there° (2x)
And when me takes it off at night time
My belly button, she is full of lint *
Now don’t you fret°, now don’t you frown°
Some people they have an inny ‘Cause I caught that branch° on the way back down° (2x)
Deeper than the Grand Canyon
Some people they have an outty
Larger than the Tacoma Dome * The morale of° the story is°

The Birdie Song

He looked at me°, I looked at him° Way up in the sky, the big birdies fly
He sized up me°, I sized up him° (2x) While down in the nest, the little birds rest
With a wing on the left, and a wing on the right
The little birds sleep, all through the night
He says to me°, “Why don’t you run?° Shhh! They’re sleeping!
Cause I see you ain’t° got any gun?”° (2x)
The bright sun comes up, the dew falls away
And so I ran° away from there° “Good morning! Good morning!” the little birds say

But right behind° me was that bear°(2x)

And on the path° ahead of me° Black Socks

A great big tree°, oh glory me° (2x)
Black socks, they never get dirty
The longer you wear them the blacker they get
The lowest branch° was ten feet up° Sometimes I think I might wash them
I’d have to jump° and trust my luck° (2x) But something inside me says don’t wash them yet
 Blowing in the Wind There’s a bright star way up yonder
There’s a bright star over my head
How many roads must a man walk down There’s a bright star way up yonder
Before they can call him a man? That’s a cover for my bed *
Yes’n how many seas must the white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand? There’s a blue sky over the mountain
And how many times must the cannonballs fly There’s a blue sky over the streams
Before they’re forever banned?* There’s a blue sky over the sunset
That’s a home for my dreams *
*The answer my friends, is blowin’ in the wind
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.*
How many times must a man look up The Boatmen
Before he can see the sky?
Yes’n how many ears must one man have The boatmen dance, and the boatmen sing,
Before he can hear people cry? And the boatmen do most anything
Yes’n how many deaths will it take till he knows, When the boatmen come on ashore
That too many people have died?* They spend their money and they work for more *

How many years can a mountain exist *Hi-ho, the boatmen go

Before it is washed to the sea? Up and down the river on the Ohio (2x)*
Yes’n how many years can some people exist
Before they’re allowed to be free? Have you ever seen where a boatman lives
Yes’n how many times must a man turn his head It’s a house on a hollow and it leaks like a sieve
Pretending that he just doesn’t see?* The boatman says if he gets one wish
If he gets any wetter he’ll soon be a fish *

Blue Sky My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

There’s a blue sky way up yonder My Bonnie lies over the ocean, my bonnie lies over the sea

There’s a blue sky way up yonder Oh bring back my bonnie to me
That’s a cover for my bed *
Bring back, bring back,
*And wherever I wander, and wherever I roam Oh bring back my Bonnie to me, to me
There’s a blue sky way up yonder Bring back, bring back,
That’s calling me home* Oh bring back my Bonnie to me

It’s like singing with a guitar *
*Camp Robbinswold, Camp Robbinswold
Camp Robbinswold, Camp Robbinswold* Once more I want to run barefoot
In the dew sprinkled land I love
We call it fun but some may call it madness, They say we’re too old to be children
So come on along and wipe away your sadness But so are the stars above
Happy campers are we, having fun ‘neath the trees Yes so are the stars above
And when we are gone, we’ll remember our song
Singin’

Sharing out thoughts and feelings

Life was young and so were we Casey’s Song
Talking together with special looks
That only friends can see * *The stars are out tonight
It’s a very lovely sight
Memories of a warm meadow They sparkle and they dance on the dew
Where we laughed and played all day Do they look the very same to you*
That night we both got homesick
And we tried to run away * I’m reminded of a midnight hour
When I talked with you beneath such stars
We vowed we’d be together We spoke of life and magic and love
When we finally could be staff While the stars twinkled softly above *
Making friendship bracelets of leather
Just us sharing a laugh * ‘Twas then that our friendship grew
When I looked at you and then I knew
Some people just don’t understand us Two kindred souls had wandered so far
They can’t accept us for who we are To meet each other here beneath the stars *
 Swimming, sailing ‘neath the sky…
Catch the Wind Feeling the ultimate natural high, Go!
(Donovan Leitch)
Round the campfire warm and bright…
In the chilly hours and minutes Sharing dreams all through the night, Go!
Of uncertainty I long to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind Counting stars and catching “z’s”…
To feel you all around me and to Girl Scout Camp is ecstasy, Go!
Take your hand along the sand
But I may as well try and catch the wind (Repeat first verse)

When the sun has paled the sky I want to

Hide away behind your smile Chairs to Mend
Everywhere I look your eyes I’d find
For me to love you now would be the Chairs to mend, old chairs to mend
Sweetest thing, ‘twould make me sing Mackerel, fresh mackerel,
But I may as well try and catch the wind Any old rags, any old rags

When the rain has hung the leaves with tears I

Want you hear to quell my fears Change the World
Help me chase all my woes away
Standing in your heart is where I *Change the world, come with me
Want to be, I long to be Time to let our dreams fly free
But I may as well try and catch the wind And it comes so easily, that is our way
Every moment we’re alive,
It’s our love that will survive

 Chocolate Chip Cookies The Circle Game
(Joni Mitchell)
Chorus:
Chocolate chip cookies, you gotta have more, Yesterday a child came out to wonder
You can bake ‘em in the oven or Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Buy ‘em at the store Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
But whatever youdo, have ‘em ready at the door And tearful at the falling of a star *
And I’ll love you till I die
*And the seasons, they go round and round
You can’t eat one, you can’t eat two And the painted ponies go up and down
Once you start munching, there’s nothing left to do We’re captive on a carousel of time
But to finish the plate and to eat the crumbs too We can’t return, we can only look
And go and find some more Behind from where we came
Boom boom boom . . . And go round and round and round in the circle game*

Chorus Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
Skated over ten clear frozen ponds
Made of butter, sugar, and flour, Words like “when you’re older” must appease him
You put ‘em in the oven about a half an hour- And promises of someday make his dreams *
But the thing that gives them
Their magical power Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Is the chocolate chips inside Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
Boom boom boom…. And they tell him “Take your time it won’t be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down” *
Chorus
Years spin by and now the child is twenty
When I die, I don’t want wings, Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
A golden halo or a harp that sings There’ll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
Just give me a book, a fire, and Before the last revolving year is through *
Someone to bring me chocolate chip cookies all day.
Boom boom boom . . . .

Chorus
 Cockles and Mussels
Circle the Earth
In Dublin’s fair city, where girls are so pretty
I circle the earth (clap twice) I first set my eyes on sweet Mollie Malone
I circle the earth from the mountains to the sky As she pushed her wheel barrow,
From the mountains to the sky Through streets broad and narrow
Wearing my long wing feathers as I fly Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, oh! *

(This is a round to be started after the first line) *Alive, alive, oh! Alive, alive, oh!
Crying cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!*

Climbing She was a fishmonger, but sure ‘twas no wonder

For so were her father and mother before
The road is rough and the way is often steep, And they each pushed their wheelbarrow
But inside yourself there’s a promise you can keep Through streets broad and narrow
When you reach the top the view is worth the climb Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, oh! *
All the stumbling and the pitfalls seem very far behind
She died of a fever, and no one could save her
Chorus: And that was the end of sweet Mollie Malone
Just keep your eyes looking at the sky Her ghost wheels her barrow
And there’ll never be a night you can’t reach Through streets broad and narrow
Climb to the clouds, raise your voices out loud Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, oh!
And show the world the joy of being free
When you climb

We’ve climbed this far but our climbing’s just begun Come and Go
And now we know that climbing can be fun
There’s a lot to share and it’s time to say goodbye Come and go with me today
But we’ll always have the memory of how we climbed so We will sail across the bay
high
(a round with a high and low part)

Warmth of a fire, Crawdads kinda turn me on, babe
Warmth of a friend Crawdads kinda turn me on,

Crazy Elephant
(a round to be started after the first stanza)
There was a crocodile, an orangutan
And an eagle flying, and a northern pike
A bunny, a beaver, a crazy elephant
Na-na na na na, Na-na na na na
 The Lady and the Crocodile Devoted to You

She sailed away on a sunny summer day Darling you can count on me, Till the sun dries up the sea
On the back of a crocodile Until then I’ll always be, Devoted to you
‘You see,’ said she, ‘he’s as tame as he can be,
and I’ll ride him down the Nile!’ I’ll be yours till endless time, I’ll adore your charms sublime,
The croc winked his eye as she waved them all goodbye Guess by now you know that I’m, Devoted to you
Wearing a happy smile
At the end of the ride, the lady was inside I’ll never hurt you, I’ll never lie, I’ll never be untrue
And the smile was on the crocodile! I’ll never give you reason to cry,
I’d be unhappy if you were blue

Daisy On My Toe Through the years my love will grow, Like a river it will flow
It can’t die because I’m so, Devoted to you
Perty daisy on my toe
It is not real, it does not grow
It’s just a tattoo of a flower
So I look neat taking a shower
It’s on the second toe of my left Dickey Bird
A stem and flower but there’s not root
(‘Cause that wouldn’t look good!) High on a tree a dickey bird
Perty daisy on my toe *Bim-sala-bim-bam-ba-sala-do-sala-dim*
My right foot loves my left foot so High on a tree a dickey bird sat
Below her sat a furry black *
Below her sat a furry black cat
Darling Won’t You Wait She said, “For dinner, I shall have *”
Darling won’t you wait, won’t you wait, won’t you wait She said, “For dinner, I shall have you”
Darling won’t you wait for me (2x) Then all at once the dickey bird *
Then all at once the dickey bird flew, she flew,
Should another love come along, come along She flew, she flew, she flew, She flew!
Simply tell her you’re not free
Send her on her way, on her way, on her way
Darling won’t you wait for me

Oh my love, some of us I know are bound to die

Hold me close, kiss me once again before we say good-bye
 Dona Nobis Pacem Down by the Bay

Dona nobis pacem pacem Down by the bay, where the watermelons grow
Dona nobis pacem Back to my home, I dare not go
For if I do, my mother will say,
Dona nobis pacem “Have you ever seen a whale, with a polka-dotted tail
Dona nobis pacem Down by the bay?”

Dona nobis pacem (a repeat song with such verses as fox wearing some socks,
Dona nobis pacem etc.)

The Doughnut Song

Do Your Ears Hang Low
Well I walked around the corner and I walked around the
block Do your ears hang low, do they wobble to and fro?
And I walked right into a Doughnut shop, Can you tie ‘em in a knot? Can you tie ‘em in a bow?
And I picked up a doughnut and I wiped off the grease, Can you throw them o’er your shoulder like a continental
And I handed the lady a five-cent piece. soldier?
Well, she looked at the nickel and she looked at me and Do your ears hang low?
She said “Kind sir you can plainly see,
There’s a hole in the nickel and it goes right through,” Do your ears stick out, can you waggle them about?
And I said, “There’s a hole in the doughnut too! Can you flap them up and down as you fly around the town?
Thanks for the doughnut, So long!” Can you shut them up for sure when you hear an awful bore?
Do your ears stick out?

Do your ears stand high, do they reach up to the sky?

Down by the Banks Do they hang down when they’re wet,
Do they stand up when they’re dry?
Down by the banks of the hanky-panky Can you semaphore your neighbor with the minimum of
Where the bullfrogs jump from bank to banky labor?
With an eeps, ipes, opes, ops, Do your ears stand high?
And they ease off the lily with the kerplop!
 Dum Dum Da Da
A Duck Can’t Sit on a Log
Oh a duck can’t sit on a log Dum dum da da
Cause he hasn’t got toes on his feet Da dum dum da da
And a fish can’t swim in the sea like a bird Da dum dum da da da dum da dum dum dum
Cause he hasn’t got a waterproof, hasn’t got a waterproof Da dum dum da da da da dum dum da da da dum
Hasn’t got a waterproof seat.

Elephant So Elegant

Duck Girl Have you seen what’s in the sky tonight

It’s something grey and big, it’s riding on a bike
Oh I’m a lone duck rover from out in Montana It is an elephant, she is so elegant
Round up them duckies and drive ‘em along She has a trunk in front, a tail behind
To a flooded corral where they bulldog and brand them
Mosey on home just a-singin’ this song *
Epo
*Singin’ quack-quack-yippee-ay
And quack-quack-yippee-o Oh epo-i-tai-tai-ay
Get along little duckies, get along real slow Oh epo-i-tai-tai-ay
It’s dirty and smelly and it really don’t pay Oh epo-i-tai-tai
But I’ll be a duck girl ‘til the end of my day* Epo-i-tookie-tookie
Epo-i-tookie-tookie-ay
On Saturday nights I ride into town
On a short-legged pony with my hat pulled way down
But the boys don’t like duck girls, Et On Pagaie
And I can’t figure out why
No cowgirl could be more romantic than I * Et on pagaie, on pagaie
Mais ou t’as mis la pagaie?
There’s danger, adventure, and romance I know La-bas, derriere le cocotier
From a wild-duck stampede to a duck rodeo Le crocodile l’a mangee
But there’s loneliness too and it cuts to the bone Et on ne peut plus pagayer
When you smell like duck feathers you’re always alone *
(a repeat song)

 The peacefulness of the silence of night
Fishing On a Bright Sunny Day The sun in the morning shining so bright
The place where campers gather, making friends for all times
Have you ever been fishing on a bright sunny day A place where city troubles are always left behind
With all the little fishies swimmin’ up and down the bay I know a place where no one ever goes
With your hands in your pockets, There’s peace and quiet, beauty and repose
And you pockets in your pants It’s hidden in a valley, beside a mountain stream
And all the little fishies doing the hoochie-coochie dance And lying there beside the stream I find that I can dream
Tra-la-la-la-la, tra-la-la-la Only of things of beauty to the eye
With your hands in your pockets Snow peaked mountains, towering in the sky
And your poc It’s then that I know god made this world for me
kets in your pants
And all the little fishies doing the hoochie-coochie dance

The roses now are blooming, the lake is so blue Beat, went the bug when I sprayed him with the bug spray
The sun above is setting, above our lives so new * Pshhhh

There was a great big moose

I’ve been a courtin’ Mary Jane… He drank his juice with care
Then ye shall thy death of cold… But he spilled some in his hair
Then we shall have to bury thee… He drank his juice with care
Then worms shall come and eat thee oop… But he spilled some in his hair *
Then dukes (ducks) shall come and eat oop worms…

Don’t go a-courtin’ Mary Jane… On the loose *

 Geoduck Song
Gibberish
You can hear the diggers say as they’re headed for the bay
Oh I gotta dig a duck, gotta dig a duck a day Do you dig that crazy gibberish,
For I get a buck a duck if I dig a duck a day Do you dig it? Do you dig it?
So I gotta dig a duck, gotta dig a duck a day * Do you dig that crazy gibberish,
Do you dig it? Do you dig it?
*Dig a duck, dig a duck, dig a geoduck Hey look! There’s a chicken on the barnyard fence
Dig a duck, dig a geoduck, dig a duck a day Hey look! There’s another one coming down the road
Dig a duck, dig a duck, dig a geoduck Ma! Ma! Get that son of a gun off my tractor!
Dig a duck, dig a geoduck, dig a duck a day*
(A round)
Well it takes a lot of luck, and a certain kind of pluck
Just to get around the muck, just to get a geoduck
‘Cause it doesn’t have a front, and it doesn’t have a back
And it doesn’t know a Donald, and it doesn’t go quack * The Gift

I have a little present here for you

Inside this tiny bottle so very small and blue
Please do not uncork it, simply put it on away
For inside there lies a summer’s day
Put it on away
G for Generosity
I’d be pleased if you did not ask me why I gave this gift to
She wears a G for generosity you
She wears an I for interest too I don’t know myself, did it on a whim,
Se wears an R for real live sportsmanship As the thought came running through
She wears an L for loyalty, for loyalty! I just want to make you happy in a summertime sort of way
She wears an S for her sincerity And I thought you might like your own summer’s day
She wears a C for courtesy, for courtesy Put it on away
She wears an OUT for outdoor life, outdoor life!
And that Girl Scout is me! Can you read the writing on this tiny bottle’s walls
I know that it’s quite small, but I can read it all
It says, “She who is a-reading me is a-lookin’ right at my
side,
And might be sort of interested at what lies inside.
There’ll be one breath of a butterfly, and one ray from the sun
And lots and lots of laughter from little children’s fun.”
Please do not uncork it, or everything’ll get away Gnomes are Short
And I want you to have your own summer’s day
Put it on away Hi ho cried the merry gnomes * *
It’s off to the woods we * Are*
We’d like to stay but time is * * short

Good Morning All You Robbinswold Girls Whales sleep in the ocean, zebras sleep on the land
Hippos sleep by the riverside, and camels sleep on sand
Good morning all you Robbinswold girls
With your hair just as messed as mine Coyotes sleep in the canyon, a birdie sleeps in a tree
Good morning all you Robbinswold girls And when it’s time for me to rest, my bed’s the place for me
You’re surely lookin’ fine
Out of your pajamas and into your togs,
Hoppin’ down to breakfast like a bunch of frogs
Good morning all you Robbinswold girls Great Green Gobs
With your hair just as messed as mine
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Little birdies dirty feet
Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning French fried eye balls floating in a pool of blood
And me without my spoon
Good morning, good morning, good morning
It’s time to rise and shine
Good morning, good morning, good morning
I hope you’re feeling fine

 Harriet Tubman Head and Shoulders, Baby

(Walter Robinson) Head and shoulders baby, 1,2,3 (2x)

One night I dreamed I was in slavery Head and shoulders, head and shoulders,
‘Bout 1850 was the time Head and shoulders baby, 1,2,3
Sorrow was the only sign (touch head and shoulders each time)
Nothing around to ease my mind
Out of the night appeared a lady Other verses: Knees and toes (touch knees and toes)
Leading a distant pilgrim band Shoot the stars (pretend to shoot the stars)
“First mate,” she cried pointing her hand, Kick the can (kick and imaginary can)
“Make room aboard for this young woman” * Round the world (make hips go in a circle)

*Saying, Come on up, I’ve got a lifeline (to be sung in a circle with everyone clapping their hands
Come on up to this train of mine then the hands of the person next to them)
Come on up, I’ve got a lifeline
Come on up to this train of mind
She said her name was Harriet Tubman
And she drove for the Underground Railroad* Herman the Worm

Hundreds of miles, we traveled onward Sittin’ on a fence post, chewing my bubblegum

Gathering slaves from town to town (chew, chew, chew, chew)
Seeking every lost and found Playin’ with my yo-yo, Woo-Hoo
Setting those free that once were bound When along came Herman the worm
Somehow my heart was growing weaker, And he was THIS big
I fell by the wayside sinking sand And I said, “Herman, what happened?”
Firmly did this lady stand, And he said, “Duh, I ate my _____”
She lifted me up and took my hand * (Fill in the blank with mother, sister, father, cousin, etc. and
Herman gets bigger each time, until finally, “Duh, I burped.”)
Who are those children dressed in red?
They must be the ones that Moses led.
Who are those children dressed in red? Hey, Ho
They must be the ones that Moses led… * Hey, ho, nobody home
Meat, nor drink, nor money have I none
Yet still I will be merry
Hey, ho, nobody home

(pretty in a round with Rose and Hey Poor Bird)

 Hey, Little Child

*Hey, Little Child, where you gonna run to? Hey Robbin
Ho, Little Child, where you gonna run to? By Meaghan Leferink Summer 2010
Hey, Little Child, where you gonna run to?
All on a summer’s day Hey Robbin, I hear the waves calling your name
Hey, hey, hey…* Hey Robbin, here no day is exactly the same
Hey Robbin, this is a place to stake a claim
I ran to the trees, the trees said grow with me So come out by the water and make your claim to fame
I ran to the trees, the trees said grow with me
I ran to the trees, the trees said grow with me Hey Robbin, I hear the forest singing a song
All on a summer’s day Hey Robbin, I think it want you to sing along
Hey, hey, hey… * Hey Robbin, no song you sing can be wrong
So come out to the forest and find where you belong
Other verses: stars/dance, wind/blow, moon/shine,
clouds/float, etc.) Hey Robbin, I hear the firelight’s call to you
Hey Robbin, nights like this are few
Hey Robbin, look up into that dark deep blue
Then look down around you and see those friendships true
Hey Poor Bird
Hey Robbin, live your life out in the wild
Hey poor bird Hey Robbin, feel the days that are mild
Take thy flight Hey Robbin, look through the eyes of a child
High above the shadows Then look back at out times together and
Of this dark night Remember each time you smiled
Then look back to Camp Robbinswold
And remember each time you smiled

The Hills (a grace)

The hills in their glorious height

Surround us by day and by night
Sing praise to the hills
 Hippopotamus Song If you’re hoping I’ll return
What can make a hippopotamus smile? To your thoughts I’ll soon be listening
What can make him walk for more than a mile? In the road I’ll stop and turn
It’s not a tune on the old violin,
Or listening to the whistling wind Then the wind will set me racing
That’s not what hippos do * As our journey nears its end
In the path I’ll be retracing
*They ooze through the goose without any shoes When I’m homeward bound again *
They wade through the water ‘til their lips turn blue
That’s what hippos do* In the quiet misty morning
When the moon has gone to bed
Shhh! When the sparrows stop their singing
What can make a hippopotamus smile? I’ll be homeward bound again
What can make him walk for more than a mile?
It’s not a party with a paper hat,
Or a bag of candy that’ll make him fat
That’s not what hippos do * Hosea

Come back to me with all your heart

Homeward Bound Don’t let fear keep us apart
Trees do bed though straight and tall
In the quiet, misty morning So must we to others call *
When the moon has gone to bed
When the sparrows stop their singing *Long have I waited for your coming home to me
And the sky is clear and red And living deeply our new life*

When the summer ceased its gleaming The wilderness will lead you
When the corn is past its prime To the place where I will speak
When adventures lost its meaning Integrity and justice
I’ll be homeward bound again * Tenderness you shall know *

*Bind me not to the pasture You shall sleep secure with peace
Chain me not to the plow Faithfulness will be your joy *
Set me free to find my calling
And I’ll return to you somehow*

If you find it’s me you’re missing

 The House at Pooh Corner Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin
Christopher Robin and I walked along Back to the ways of Christopher Robin
Under branches lit up by the moon Back to the days of Pooh
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
As our day disappeared all too soon
But I’ve wandered much further today than I should
And I can’t seem to find my way back to the wood

So help me if you can I’ve got to get

Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
You’d be surprised there’s so much to be done Ho, Young Rider
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky Ho, young rider, apple-cheeked one,
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh Wither riding
On your steed so black and prancing
Winnie the Pooh doesn’t know what to do Wither riding
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose What matters where I ride?
He came to me asking help and advice Slovak mountains are my pride
And from here no one knows where he goes Du-shamoyah, du-shamoyah, hey!
So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he’s there
How to loosen the jar from the nose of a bear Ho, young rider, apple-cheeked one
Wither roaming
Chorus On your steed so black and prancing
Wither roaming
It’s hard to explain how a few precious things What matters where I roam,
Can follow throughout all of our lives Slovak mountains are my home
After all’s said and done, I was watching my son Du-shamoyah, du-shamoyah, hey!
Sleeping there with the bear by his side
So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going
I could swear that old bear whispered
“Boy, welcome home”

Believe me if you can I’ve finally come

Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
What do you know, there’s so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
 The Human Touch
I Don’t Care if I Go Crazy
It’s the human touch in this world that counts
The touch of your hand in mine I don’t care if I go crazy, 1 2 3 4 5 6 switch
It means far more to this fading heart Crazy go I if care don’t I, 6 5 4 3 2 1 switch
Than shelter, bread, or wine
The shelters’ gone when the night is ore
The bread lasts only a day If All the Raindrops
But the touch of hand and the sound of your voice
Rings on in my heart always If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drop
May the road rise up to meet you Oh what a rain it would be
May the wind be always at your back I’d stand outside, with my mouth open wide
May the sun shine warm upon your face Going “AA Aa-aa aa aa-aa aa aa-aa aa”
And the rain fall soft upon your fields If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drops
Until we meet again someday Oh what a rain it would be!
May God hold you in the palm of her hand
May the memories that we have shared If all the snowflakes were candy bars and milkshakes
Linger on and on Oh what a snow it would be!
I’d stand outside, with my mouth open wide
Going “AA Aa-aa aa aa-aa aa aa-aa aa”
Humpty Dumpty If all the snowflakes were candy bars and milkshakes
Oh what a snow it would be!
*Hump-ty Dump, Hump-hump-ty dump-ty dump-ty
Hump-ty Dump, Hump-hump-ty dump-ty dump-ty* If all the sunbeams were jellybeans and ice cream
Oh what a sun it would be!
(Insert first three lines of a nursery rhyme, followed I’d stand outside, with my mouth open wide
by “Ooh, ain’t that funky now…” Going “AA Aa-aa aa aa-aa aa aa-aa aa”
for example: Jack and Jill went up the hill If all the sunbeams were jellybeans and ice cream
to fetch a pail of water, Oh what a sun it would be!
Jack fell down and broke his crown and
Ooh, ain’t that funky now… * If all the hailstones were gummy bears and Sno-Cones
Oh what a hail it would be!
Three dances that accompany the chorus: I’d stand outside, with my mouth open wide
-the lawn mower Going “AA Aa-aa aa aa-aa aa aa-aa aa”
-the sprinkler If all the hailstones were gummy bears and Sno-Cones
-the karate kid (wax on, wax off, paint the fence (2x), catch Oh what a hail it would be!

If I had a hammer, I’d hammer in the morning Plant a rose for me
I’d hammer in the evening, all over this land And if you’ll love me for a long long time
I’d hammer out danger, I’d hammer out warning Plant an apple tree
I’d hammer out love between my brothers
And my sisters all over this land So whether I stay, or whether I go
Ooooooh You’ll have an apple or you’ll have a rose
So if you love me, if you love love love me
If I had a bell, I’d ring it in the morning Plant a rose for me
I’d ring it in the evening, all over this land
I’d ring out danger, I’d rng out warning
I’d ring out love between my brothers I Love the Mountains
And my sisters all over this land
Ooooooh I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills
I love flowers, I love the daffodils
If I had a song, I’d sing it in the morning I like the fire side when all the lights are low
I’d sing it in the evening, all over this land Boom-di-yada, boom-di-yada, boom-di-yada, boom-di-yada
I’d sing out danger, I’d sing out warning
I’d sing out love between my brothers
And my sisters all over this land
Ooooooh I’m a Little Dinosaur

Now I have a hammer, and I have a bell I’m a little dinosaur, I’m a little dinosaur
And I’ve got a song to sing all over this land. I’m a little dinosaur and I’m planning to go away
It’s the hammer of justice
It’s the bell of reedom I am real old don’tcha know
It’s the song of love between my brothers Born ten million years ago/ but the people here
And my sisters all over this land Don’t love me so
Ooooooh I’m planning to go away

The children on their lawns will wake up and wonder

Where I’ve gone
And the flies that buzzed around where I used to pee
Are gonna have to get along without me
They’ll say “where’s that little dinosaur?” (where’d he go?) I’m On My Way
“Where’s that little dinosaur? He must have gone away.”
I’m on my way, to the freedom land (repeat 3x)
Oh no, please don’t go I’m on my way, oh yes, I’m on my way!
Oh no, please don’t go
Don’t go little dinosaur I asked my brother, wontcha come with me (repeat 3x)
Please don’t go away I’m on my way, oh yes, I’m on my way!

Well ok, I’ll come back! I asked my sister, wontcha come with me (repeat 3x)
o-oh you know I’m back to stay I’m on my way, oh yes, I’m on my way!
for I’m just a little dinosaur
and I could never really go (No!) If you can’t come, dontcha hinder me! (repeat 3x)
Never really go (He’s back!) I’m on my way, oh yes, I’m on my way!
Never really go away
(a repeat song)

I’m a Nut I’m Up Right

I’m a little acorn brown I’m up right, in right, out right, down right
Lying on the cold, hard ground Happy all the time
Everybody steps on me,
That is why I’m cracked you see * The birds their songs they sing,
Throughout the woodland green
*I’m a nut (click, click)
I’m a nut (click, click) I’m up right, in right, out right, down right
I’m crazy (click, click)* Happy all the time

Called myself on the telephone,

Just to see if I was home Is There Any Reason
Asked myself out on a date
Set the time for half-past eight * Is there any reason to be in such a mood alone?
Is there ay reason to be in such a mood alone?
Took myself to the picture show Sitting alone on a log on a hill far away
Sat myself in the very last row Sitting alone you don’t find very much left to say
Wrapped my arms around my waist La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (2x)
Got so fresh I slapped my face! Is there any reason to be in such a mood alone?
 I Understand

I understand, just how you feel, my dear

My love for you has been unreal I Won’t Grow Up!
It’s over now, but it was grand, my dear
I understand, I understand I won’t grow up (repeat)
I don’t want to go to school (repeat)
Should you ever change your mind, my dear Just to learn to be a parrot (repeat)
Come back to me, and you will find And recite a silly rule (repeat)
Me waiting there to take your hand, my dear If growing up means it would be
I understand, I understand Beneath my dignity to climb a tree,
(To be sung simultaneously with Auld Lang Syne) I’ll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me! (Not I) Not me, so there! *mlaaah!*

I won’t grow up (repeat)

I don’t want to wear a tie (repeat)
I Want To Be Strong Or a serious expression (repeat)
In the middle of July (repeat)
*Well, I want to be strong And if it means I must prepare
To be, strong as the land around me To shoulder burdens with a worried air,
I want a heart that’s as wide as the sky I’ll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
I want a spirit like a moving mountain stream Not me! (Not I) Not me, so there! *mlaaah!*
I want to look people straight in the eye*
I won’t grow up (repeat)
Walking along beneath a canopy of clouds Not a penny will I pinch (repeat)
Feeling like a stranger in the midst of a crowd I will never grow a mustache (repeat)
I know that something great is calling me out loud Or a fraction of an inch (repeat)
I know that I must choose * Cause growing up is awfuller
Than all the awful things that ever were
I know that in this world there’s hunger and there’s hate I’ll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
But if we care it’s not too late Not me! (Not I) Not me, so there! *mlaaah!*
A loving, laughing world, we’ll be able to create
Underneath the endless sky *
 Sounds of laughter are everywhere

La Haina

John Jacob Jingle Hymer Schmidt I was sitting at a table in an open café, waiting for a drink of
tea
John Jacob Jingle Hymer Schmidt When I asked the water for the time of day
His name is my name too He said, “Look out, there’s a centipede a-comin’ your way!”
Whenever I go out, the people always shout, *
“There goes John Jacob Jingle Hymer Schmidt”
Da na na na na na na *In La Haina, sugar cane grows, in La Haina, livin’ is slow
in La Haina, the mangoes grow sweet,
But the centipede she crawls all over your feet!
Bah-dah-dah-dum bum bum bum bah-dah-dum
Jubilate Deo Bah-dah-dah-dum bum bah-dum! In La Haina! (repeat)*

Jubilate Deo, I was laying by the water in the morning sun, shaded by a
Jubilate Deo, coconut tree,
Alleluia When I turned around it was all I could see,
There was a great big a-centipede a-starin’ at me! *

I had only a second to decide what to do, while staring at it’s

Kookaburra poisonous fangs
When I said I thought it was a beautiful day, he said,
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree “Hey lady don’t ya think you’re pulling my leg?” *
Merry, merry kinig of the bushes, he
Laugh Kookaburra, laugh Kookaburra
Gay your life must be! La, La, La

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Eating all the gum drops he can see La, la, la. La, la, la
Stop, Kookaburra, stop Kookaburra La, la, la
Save some there for me!

Leavin’ On a Jet Plane I said ooh ah-ah-ah, ooh ah-ah-ah, ooh ah-ah (2x)
(replace italicized word Tarzan, John Travolta, etc. with
My bags are packed, I’m ready to go hand motions and act like the character)
I’m standing right outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye
But the dawn is breaking, it’s early morn
The taxi’s waiting, he’s blowing his horn, Like A Ship in the Harbor
Already I’m so lonesome I could die…*
Like a ship in the harbor
*So kiss me and smile for me, Like a mother and child
Tell me that you’ll wait for me Like a light in the darkness
Hold me like you’ll never let me go I’ll hold you awhile
‘Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane, We’ll rock on the water
Don’t know when I’ll be back again I’ll cradle you deep
O babe I hate to go* And hold you while angels
Sing you to sleep
There’s so many times I let you down
So many times I played around
I tell you now that they don’t mean a thing
Every place I go, I’ll think of you Linger
Every song I sing, I’ll sing for you
When I come home, I’ll wear your wedding ring…* Mmmm, I wanna linger
Mmmm, a little longer
Well now the time has come to leave you Mmm, a little longer here with you
One more time, please let me kiss you,
Then close your eyes and I’ll be on my way Mmmm, it’s such a perfect night
Dream about the days to come Mmmm, it doesn’t seem quite right
When I won’t have to leave you alone Mmmm, that it should be my last with you
About the times when I won’t have to say…*
Mmmm, and some September
Mmmm, I will remember
Let Me See Your… Mmmm, our camping days and friendships true

Let me see your Frankenstein Mmmm, and as the years go by

What’s that you say? Mmmm, I’ll think of you and sigh
I said let me see your Frankenstein Mmmm, this is good-night and not good-bye
 Little Canoe Little Drop of Dew

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe (high part and low part)
With the moon shining all around Little drop of dew of dew, like a gem you are,
They paddled their paddles so I believe that you must have been a star
You couldn’t even hear a sound
And they talked and they talked till the moon grew dim When the morn is light, on the grass you lie
He said you better kiss me or get out and swim Tell me then at night are you in the sky?
So what ‘cha gonna do in a little canoe
With the moon shining all a, boy swimming all a, Little drop of dew of dew, like a gem you are,
Girl paddling all around I believe that you must have been a star

Little Green Frog

Little Cottage Mmm-ah went the little green frog one day
Mmm-ah went the little green frog
Little cottage in the woods Mmm-ah went the little green frog one day
Little man by the window stood And they all went mmm-mmm-ah!
Saw a rabbit hopping by
Knocking at his door Now all those frogs go la-dee-da-dee-da
“Help me, help me, Help!” He said La-dee-da-dee-da
“Or the hunter will shoot me dead.” La-dee-da-dee-da
“Come little rabbit, come inside. Now all those frogs go la-dee-da-dee-da
Safely you’ll abide.” Instead of mmm-mmm-ah

Magic

*Magic is the sun the makes the rainbow out of rain

Long John And magic keeps the dream alive, to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays, when good friends have to leave
Well I’m a long john I do believe in magic I believe*
And I’m a long time gone
Like a fish in the canal When I was young I thought the stars were made for wishing
With his long johns on on
And every hole deep in a tree must hide a leprechaun
Glub, glub-glub, glub Houses all had secret rooms, if I could find the key
Glub, glub-glub, glub I do believe in magic, I believe *
Glub, glub, glub, glub
Growin up, the grown-ups said, one day I’d wake to find
(a repeat song) That magic’s just a childhood game, I’d have to leave behind
(other suggested verses: seal/canal/arf, snake/grass/hiss, Like clothes that did no longer fit, or toys that I’d ignore
bear/woods/roar, etc.) I’d not believe in magic anymore *

Now I’ve grown old and learned again that much to my

surprise
 Magic did not fade away, it took a new disguise
A childhood friend, a smile, a song, the courage to stand tall
I do believe in magic after all Make New Friends

Magic is the sun that makes the rainbow out of rain Make new friends, but keep the old
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again One is silver, and the other’s gold
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, A circle’s round, it has no end
For love’s the greatest magic, That’s how long I want to be your friend
I do believe in magic, I believe
(a round, to be started after “Make New Friends”)

Magic Melody
Make Your Own Kind of Music
Here I stand, all alone upon a hill so high
Gazing at the sky as clouds drift by Don’t let anyone tell you
And I hear a melody from my heart There’s only one song worth singin’
Leaves sing too, echoing my lovely melody They make try to tell you
And my longing to be free to roam Cause it hangs them up, to see someone like you
In the sunlight of today and always But you’ve gotta *
Where I choose in the heather by the restless sea
This my magic song my heart sets free *Make your own kind of music
I’m in love with the world Sing your own special song
I’m in love with the world Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along, sings along*
Rain may fall all around me and the sky show gray
Comes again my melody to say You’re gonna be lonely
I will see a rainbow smiling at me The loneliest kind of lonely
Bright hues there, splendor painted on an arc of blue It may be rough goin’
And the morning sun peeks through to say Cause to do your thing is the hardest thing to do
Follow on to find the treasures of life But you’ve gotta *
All the way, yet another path another day
Filled with promise and my magic song So if you cannot take my hand
I’m in love with the world And if you must going
I’m in love with the world I will understand, that you’ve gotta *
I’m in love with the world

1.) If I could be anything I wanted Matilda the Gorilla

Anything under the sun
I think I’d be the old steam-boat captain I had a pet gorilla
On the old Cotton Blossom #1, #1 Her name was Matilda
The old Cotton Blossom #1 Matilda used to sing songs everyday
And I’d go Mark Twain up the river And this is what Matilda the gorilla would say:
I’d go Mark Twain up and down
I’d go Mark Twain up the river Ooh, ooh, aah-aah
And I’d serenade the people back in town, back in town Ooh, ooh aah-aah
I’d serenade the people back in town. Ooh, ooh, aah-aah
Ooh, ooh aah-aah
2.) Same as first verse, except “old steam-boat captain,”
it’s the “old steam boat paddle” that goes “swish”
3.) “Whistle” instead of “captain” that goes “toot-toot” May All Your Dreams
4.) “Calliope” instead of “captain” that goes “who-who-

M-i-c-k-e-y M-o-u-s-e
Me and My Dinosaur Mickey Mouse roll call sound off now…

One day when the weather was cloudy and gray,

And I wished that someone would come out and play! Mississippi Mud
I heard a ‘knock, knock’ and I opened the door,
And there stood the loveliest BIG! Dinosaur * 1.) Sun goes down, moon comes up,
People gather ‘round and they all begin to shout *
*Me and my dinosaur, I’ve never had such a friend before!
Big as a house, twenty times and a half, *Hey, hey, Uncle Dud
And fifty times taller than ANY giraffe! It’s a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi Mud
Legs like sequoia trees, teeth big as piano keys! It’s a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi Mud*
No two people are buddies more than me and my dinosaur!*
2.) What a dance do they do?
I brought out some cookies and we had a snack, Lordy how I’m tellin’ you *
Then she said she’s give me a ride on her back,
I started to climb from her tail to her cheek, 3.) They don’t need no rockin’ band
The whole darn trip took a year and a week! * They keep time by clappin’ their hands *

We hop-scotched to Africa, quick as a breeze Mud, mud, mud, mud, mud

While leap-frogging over the coconut trees! Mississippi Mud
Then we got thirsty after a while,
In one great big gulp we just drank up the Nile! *
 With you my friend, I am there
Mister Moon
(The capitalized words in the second verse are the
Mister Moon, Mister Moon, you’re out too soon names of units at another camp)
The sun is still in the sky
Go back to bed and cover up your head
And wait till the day goes by
Moonshadow
From out the battered elm tree,
The owl cries out, “Who’s there?” *I’m being followed by a moonshadow,
And from the distant forest, the cuckoo answers clear moonshadow, moonshadow
Leaping and hopping on a moonshadow,
Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo! moonshadow, moonshadow*
Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo!
And if I ever lose my eyes,
All my colors, they run dry
‘Cause if I ever lose my eyes
Moon on the Meadow O-wee-ee-ee-wee ee ee ee
I won’t have to cry no more *
Moon on the meadow, bugs in our ears
Smoke in our eyes, wet wood and tears And if I ever lose my hands,
On up the meadow, water somewhere Lose my plow and lose my land,
We were the only ones there ‘Cause if I ever lose my hands
O-wee-ee-ee-wee ee ee ee
Wild horse and Slushy, Dry Lakes, the Peak I won’t have to work no more *
Finding a love that everyone seeks
Hiking to Rainbows, Sunsets and Stars And if I ever lose my legs,
Just finding out who we are I won’t cry and I won’t beg,
‘Cause if I ever lose my legs
We will return here some lucky day O-wee-ee-ee-wee ee ee ee
Our hearts will guide us, they know the way I won’t have to walk no more *
People in cities don’t understand
Falling in love with the land And if I ever lose my mouth
All my teeth, North and South
Moon on the meadow, bugs in our ears ‘Cause if I ever lose my mouth,
Smoke in our eyes, wet wood and tears O-wee-ee-ee-wee ee ee ee
On up the meadow, water somewhere I won’t have to talk—um um *
 City girls they wear that French perfume
But if I ever lose my friends, Country girls, they do the same
All my world comes to an end, Mountain girls just go au naturel
If I ever lose my friends But they get there just the same.
O-wee-ee-ee-wee ee ee ee
I would never love no more. City girls they use those flush toilets
Country girls, they do the same
Mountain girls just find a friendly bush
But they get there just the same
Moses Supposes

Moses supposes his toeses are roses Mountains High

But Moses supposes erroneously
‘Cause nobody’s toeses are poses of roses 1.) Mountains high, reaching for the sky
Like Moses supposes his toeses to be That I can climb and find peace of mind
Moses supposes his toeses are roses
But Moses supposes erroneously 2.) Meadows green, tiny flowing streams
To beautiful it seems, I dream, mountain dream

(Draw a star with your finger)
*Murray the rabbit boy, Murray
Who?
Murray the rabbit boy, Murray?
Mountain Girls What’d he do?
He hops from place to place
City girls, they wear those high heels To save the human race
Country girls, they do the same Murray the rabbit boy, Murray*
Mountain girls just wear their hiking boots,
But they get there just the same. One day the rabbit and the boy were caught in a radiation
storm
 And when the clouds had lifted My girls she plays like summer
The boy had been transformed Like an elf hiding under
The rabbit and the boy had mutated into one The green leaf, distant thunder,
The legend of Murray the rabbit boy has begun * Cannot shake or surprise her

Chorus

My girl she leaves like autumn

Music Alone Shall Live Dressed up in many colors
She reaps the harvest we sowed
All things shall perish from under the sky It seems like so long ago
Music alone shall live
Music alone shall live Chorus
Music alone shall live, never to die

My Babe My Friends

My babe she came in winter *My friends, my friends are good for me
Like a seed sprouting under I like them and they like me
The dark earth’s greeny cover
Deep in the womb of the world. 1.) Together we drink our juice and bread
We’re so happy when everyone’s fed *
Chorus:
Ooh la la ooh la oo la (x3) 2.) A friend can be either short or talk
Oo la la ooo la la A friend can be most anyone at all *

My babe she sees like springtime 3.) Together we dance and play around
Everything wildflowers, Wiggle our toes in the soft green ground *
Blossoming in the morning
she watches nature moving

Chorus
 My Old Mom’s a Farmer
My Summer Friend
My old mom’s a farmer, now whadda you think about that?
She wears her farmer’s raincoat, she wears her farmer’s hat *So many times we’ve cared my summer friend
She wears her farmer’s collar, she wears her farmer’s shoes The secrets that we’ve shared my summer friend
And every Sunday morning she reads the farmer’s news And as surely as the sun will rise, you’re always there for me
And some day, if I can My summer friend I know you’ll always be*
I’m gonna be a farmer, just like my old mom
1.) The first days of my summer were so empty and alone
(other verses: doctor, counselor, I didn’t have a friend to see me through
Chiquita banana sticker licker, etc.) When we first met we hit it off and summer changed it’s tone
And now I know I have a friend in you *

2.) Through summer days we’ve shared our dreams, our

My Paddle secrets, and our fears
And now I see a part of me in you
My paddle’s keen and bright I hope these days would never end because of you my friend
Flashing like silver How strong our love would be we never knew *
Follow the wild goose flight
Dip, dip and swing 3.) Summer’s over and I never knew
How quickly time would fly
Dip, dip and swing and back It seems our days together were so few
Flashing like silver Those happy days, those giving days I’ll always keep in mind
Swift as the wild goose flies With memories that will keep me close to you *
Dip, dip and swing

My Roots Go Down ‘Neath These Tall Green Trees

My roots go down *

 I’d rather have a lemon pie than 47 bucks
No Bananas in the Sky Way down in Barcelonia
They fell into the foamia
There are no bananas in the sky, in the sky (2x) Now that is all bolognia

But there are no bananas in the sky, in the sky! Toot! Toot!

Now All the Woods are Waking

Noodle Soup
Now all the woods are waking
Oh, I was born one night one morn The sun is rising high
When the whistle went too, toot Wake up now, Get up now,
You can bake a steam or fry a cake Before the dew is dry
When the mud pies are in bloom
Does six and six make nine?
Does ice grow on a vine? Oden
Does Uncle Joe eat cheerios
In the good old summer-time? In the land of Oden
Oh, loop the loop in the noodle soup There stands a mountain
Just give your socks a shine Ten thousand miles in the air
I’m the guilty judge, I stole the fudge From edge to edge, this mountain measures
Three cheers for old exsine Ten thousand miles square
I cannot tell a lie, I hocked an apple pie
It’s on a tree, beneath the sea, A little bird comes a-winging
Above the great blue sky Once every million years or so
They call me King Napoleon Sharpens her beak on a stone
But I’m not him at all And then quickly disappears
I come from South Dakota
Way down by old St. Paul And when that mountain
I’ll sue them all for slander Has worn away
I’ll make them all repent This to eternity will be,
For how can I be Bonaparte But one single day
When I’m the president
If Easter eggs don’t shave their legs, In the land of Oden
Their children will have ducks There stands a mountain
Quack, quack, quack Ten thousand miles in the air
 Oh Be Joyful Oh How Lovely Is the Evening

Don’t have to worry where I get my next meal
Cause I’m eating chicken and I don’t have to steal
Everything’s just going my way
Every dog’s gotta have his day Oh, Olay Olay! (The Corn Growing Song)
Well, I’ve had mine and I’m ready to say
Everything, everything, everything, everything, Oh, olay olay
Everything’s going my way! Alla tikka tumba
Maza maza maza
Well, my clothes are tailor made, Olloo olloo olloway!

Take a look at me, and Lordy, Lordy, Lordy!
Everything’s going my way!

Oh be joyful, oh be happy on this day Love each other
Oh be joyful, oh be joyful Find the way home

One day
Forever long
Builds a bond
Old McDonald Forever strong
(a repeat song)
Old McDonald had a farm, eyi-eyi-o
And on that farm he had some chickens
Eyi-eyi-o
With a bock bock here, and a bock bock there One Finger, One Thumb
Here a bock, there a bock, everywhere a bock bock
Old McDonald had a farm, eyi-eyi-o One finger, one thumb keep moving (3x)
We’ll all be merry and bright

One finger, one thumb, one arm keep moving, etc.

Other possible motions to accompany singing: arm, leg, stand
One Day up sit down, nod of the head, etc.

One day
Walking in the sun One Tin Soldier
We laugh
Friendship has begun Listen children to a story
That was written long ago
Same day ‘Bout a kingdom on a mountain
Talkin’ in the sun And the valley folk below
Two there On the mountain was a treasure
Becoming one Buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore
Time past They’d have it for their very own *
 *Go ahead and hate your neighbor, On My Honor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of heaven *On my honor I will try
You can justify it in the end There’s a duty to be done, and I say “aye”
There won’t be any trumpets blowing There’s a reason here for a reason above
Come the judgment day My honor is to try and my duty is to love*
On the bloody morning after…
One tin soldier rides away* People don’t need to know my name
If I hurt someone, then I’m to blame
So the people of the valley If I help someone, then I’ve helped me
Sent a message to the hill And that’s the way that it should be *
Asking for the buried treasure
Tons of gold for which they’d kill I’ve tucked away a song or two
Down the mountain came the answer If you’re feeling low, there’s one for you
“With our neighbors we will share If you need a friend, then I will come
All the secrets of our mountain There’s plenty more where I come from *
All the riches buried there” *
Come with me where a fire burns bright
Now the valley cried with anger You can see much better by its own light
“Mount your horses, draw your swords” You can find more meaning in a campfire’s glow
And they killed the mountain people Than you’ll ever find in a year or so *
So they won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure Friendship is the strangest thing
On the mountain dark and red If you keep it to yourself, no reward will it bring
Turned the stone and looked beneath it But you gave it away, and you give it to me
“Peace on earth” was all it said * And from now on great friends we’ll be *

Now the mountain people’s story We’ve got a promise to always keep
Seems to me so very sad We will sing, “Day is Done” before we sleep
Not because they lost their treasure We are Girl Scouts together, and when we’re gone
But because all others had We’ll still be a-trying and a-singing this song *
Take a look down in the valley
We could be the people there
Seeking riches we abuse
What little peace we still might share *
 On The Loose Oyster Stew

1.) Have you ever a sunrise One day I ordered an oyster stew, alone tee-hee alone
Turn the sky completely red? And only one oyster loomed in view, alone tee-hee alone
Have you slept beneath the moon and stars He winked at me and he blinked at me
A pine bough for your head? “I’ve been in many a stew,” said he
Do you sit and talk with friends “But don’t tell the chef that you saw me, alone tee-hee alone
Though a word is never said? And maybe I’ll go to the junior prom, alone tee-hee alone
Then you’re just like me and you’ve been on the loose * And maybe I’ll sit by the chaperone, alone tee-hee alone
And maybe somebody will wink at me
*On the loose to climb a mountain And I will wink at them, tee-hee
On the loose where I am free And then you’ll know that I’ll not be, alone tee-hee alone”
On the loose to live my life the way I think my life should be
For I’ve only got a moment and a whole world yet to see
I’ll be looking for tomorrow on the loose* Parting Wish

2.) There’s a trail that I’ll be hiking I’d like to share this parting wish with you
Just to see where it might go Treasure all the friendships unto you
Many places yet to visit, Remember all the good times we’ve had here
Many people yet to know And don’t forget them in the coming year
So in following my dreams
I will live and I will grow (a repeat song, repeat two times through, the last time, repeat
On a trail that’s waiting out there on the loose * the last line again)

So in search of love and laughter

I’ll be traveling this land
Never sure of where I’m going Paul’s Lullaby
For I haven’t any plans
So in time when you are ready Sing your lullaby to the world, it’s a happy song to know
Come and join me take my hand For the children need their sleep to grow
And together we’ll share life out on the loose * Softly as the people sleep, the moon drifts through the sky
And she sings to us all her lullaby
 Peace is the World Smiling
Percy the Pale Face Polar Bear
Peace is the world smiling
Peace is a gentle dove, Way up in the land of ice and snow
Peace is sharing, Peace is caring Where the temperature drops to forty below
Peace is filling the world with love! Who’s the happiest one up there?
It’s Percy the pale face polar bear
He sleeps all day and then at night
He catches his fish by the pale moonlight
Has no worries, has no cares
He’s Percy the pale face polar bear
Peace Like a River Then one day the hunters came
They caught poor Percy by the snout
I’ve got peace like a river (3x) Put him in a great big cage
In my soul, in my soul (2x) Percy howled, and he growled
But he couldn’t get out
I’ve got love like a mountain (3x) Now he’s living in the zoo
In my soul, in my soul (2x) Funny thing he likes it too
‘Cause he met his girlfriend there
I’ve got joy like a fountain (3x) And she loves Percy the pale face polar bear
In my soul, in my soul (2x) Who? Percy the pale face polar bear!

I’ve got peace like a river

I’ve got love like a mountain
I’ve got joy like a fountain
In my soul, in my soul (2x) Pink Pajamas

I wear my pink pajamas in the summer when it’s hot

I wear my flannel nighty in the winter when it’s not
And sometimes in the spring and sometimes in the fall
I jump between the sheets with nothing on at all!

Glory, glory hallelujah!

Glory, glory what’s it to ya?
Balmy breezes flowin’ through ya,
With nothing on at all!
 Pickin’ Flowers Pirate Ship

*Pickin’ flowers in the rain and When I was one

laughing with the sun I sucked my thumb
Trying to teach them how to live by themselves The day I went to see
And still get things done * I jumped aboard a pirate ship
And the captain said to me,
Gonna be a counselor at summer camp, “We’re going this way that way
Gonna find out what it’s all about Forward backward
Little eyes will look up to you and Over the Irish Sea
Little hands will reach out * A juicy plum (a bottle of rum)
To warm my tum
The days are long and the nights are short The pirate’s life for me”
And the pay is so small
We really don’t know if what we say
Sinks in at all *

Build a fire, dig a trench, Plea for the World

Sharpen an axe with a wet stone
And maybe next time when we’re not here A plea for on world is heard in many different lands
They can do it all alone * These are the pleas of a world who is hungry for peace
Let us all come together
And sometimes when things don’t work out right Let us live well together
And we think we’re all flops Striving to make the world better
They look up at us and they smile at us Pledging out lives to peace
And ask us not to stop *

When it’s all over and it’s time to leave

We’ll sit and think This Pretty Planet
What parts of us do they take along?
What part of them do they leave? This pretty planet, spinning in space
Your garden, your harbor, your holy place
So that’s why I’m here at this summer camp Golden sun going down
And I hope you feel the same way Gentle blue giants spin us around
There’s a lot to get, but there’s much more to give All through the night
And I hope you’re here to stay * Safe to the morning light
 Prunee
Princess Pat
No matter how young a prune may be
The princess pat She’s always getting wrinkles
Light infantry A baby prune is like her dad
She sailed across But she ain’t wrinkled half as bad
The seven seas Now you have wrinkles on your face
She sailed across But prune has them everyplace!
The channel two No matter how young a prune may be,
And she took with her She’s always getting wrinkles
A rickadandoo *
Little seed inside the pru-in
*A rickadandoo Is it night or is it noo-in
Now what is that? Whatch yo’ name
It’s something made And Whatch yo’ doin’
By the Princess Pat Little seed inside the pru-in
It’s red and gold
And purple too No matter how young a prune may be
That’s why it’s called She’s always getting wrinkles
A rickadandoo*

Now Captain Jack Puff the Magic Dragon

Had a mighty find crew
He sailed across Puff the magic dragon, lived by the sea
The Channel Two And frolicked in the autumn mist
But his ship sank In a land called Honalee
And yours will too Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
If you don’t take And brought him strings and sealing wax
A rickadandoo * And other fancy stuff

(a repeat song) Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched
On Puff’s gigantic bluff
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came
Pirate ships would lower their flags
As Puff roared out his name
 Just my three*
A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys Good companions*
Painted wings and giants’ rings My banjo, my pony, and me, yee-haw!
Make way for other toys Gonna hang*
One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more My sombrero*
And Puff that mighty dragon On a limb*
He ceased his fearless roar Of a tree*
For my three*
His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain Good companions*
Puff no longer went to play My banjo, my pony, and me, yee-haw!
Along the cherry lane
Without his lifelong friend Puff could not be brave
So Puff that might dragon
Sadly slipped into his cave
Purple Soup

We’re makin’ a purple soup ba-doup, ba-doup

Purple Lights Makin’ a purple soup, ba-doup, ba-doup
Purple potatoes, and purple tomatoes
Purple lights* And we want you
In the canyon*
That’s where I*
Long to be* Rain Dance
With my three*
Good companions* Have one person leading the following motions:
My banjo, my pony, and me, yee-haw! 1. Rub hands back and forth (wind)

 Rainbow Connection Raisin Song

Why are there so many songs about rainbows? Lay some happiness on me
And what’s on the other side? Give me raisins and I’ll be
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, So much happier, you’ll see
Rainbows have nothing to hid Lay some happiness on me
So we’ve been told and some choose to believe it
I know they’re wrong, wait and see I think raisins are just dandy
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection A natural energy treat, oh boy!
The lovers, the dreamers and me Raisins are as good as candy
‘Bout as good as fruit, so…
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered (Chorus)
And wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it
And look what it’s done so far
What’s so amazing that keeps us star gazing
And what do we think we might see?
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me A Ram Sam Sam

Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices A ram sam sam, a ram sam sam
When I’ve heard them calling my name? Goolie, goolie, goolie, goolie, goolie, ram sam sam
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors A raja, a raja
The voice might be one and the same Goolie, goolie, goolie, goolie, goolie, ram sam sam
I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it
It’s something that I’m supposed to be
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
La deed a, la dee da doo
The lovers, the dreamers and me
 Reach

*Reach up to the sky, and open up your eyes

Rare Bog And, let your troubles fade away
Dream those dreams today
*(together) Rare bog, the rattlin’ bog And melt your cares away
Way down in the valley-oh And open up your heart and sing*
Rare bog, the rattlin’ bog
Way down in the valley-oh* Live your life for everyday
The old one is gone,
(echo) And in that bog So don’t let this one slip away, and… *
There was a tree
A rare tree
A rattlin’ tree
And the tree’s in the bog
And the bog’s down in the valley, Oh! * Reach for the Sun

And on that tree, there was a limb… Ride on the wind of a summer’s day
And on that limb, there was a branch… Ride on the wind and be a world away
And on that branch, there was a twig… Reach for the sun and touch the moon too
And on that twig, there was a leaf… Reach for the sun and touch the moon
And on that leaf, there was a nest…
And in that nest, there was an egg… Find yourself before you run away
And in that egg, there was a chicken… Stand on the grass and watch the children play
And on that chicken, there was a feather… Their world is really half of yours, too
And on that feather, there was a tick… Their world is really half of yours
And on that tick, there was a speck of dust…
And in that speck of dust, there was a whole new world… Where ‘ere you go be sure to see the sky
And in that whole new world, there was a Girl Scout camp… Don’t let your only chances pass you by
(in the last verse, instead of a “rattlin’ Girl Scout camp,” Reach for the sun and touch the moon, too
it’s a “rockin’ Girl Scout camp”) Reach for the sun and touch the moon

Red Balloon
 1.) Give me a red balloon on a long black string In a world of friendship true
I’ll be richer than any king In a world I share with you *
With my red balloon on a long black string
I can whistle and I can sing *

*Laughs are many and tears are few Red River Valley
Life’s exciting and always new
In a world of girls and boys From this valley they say you are going
In a world of simple joys* We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For they say you are taking the sunshine
2.) Give me a paper kite on a windy day Which has brightened our pathway a while *
Oh I think I’ll fly away

Oh yes, I’ll fly away * Do not hasten to bid me adieu
But remember the Red River Valley
3.) Give me a warm spring day and an apple tree And the one who has loved you so true*
There’s nothing that I can’t see
When I looked out from my apple tree Won’t you think of the valley you’re leaving
Look up there and you’ll see me * Oh, how lonely, how sad will it be?
Oh, think of the fond heart you’re breaking
4.) Give me a blue C-Lark and a windy day And the grief you are causing to me *
And I think I’ll sail away
In my blue C-Lark on a windy day As you go to your home by the ocean
Oh yes, I’ll sail away * May you never forget those sweet hours
That we spent in the Red River Valley
5.) Give me friends to love and a place to go And the love we exchanged ‘mid the flowers *
With these friends there’s joy I know
That when they’re gone and far apart
There’s still joy beneath our hearts *

6.) Give me a summer camp and the campers there Red Wagon
We’ll explore with friends who care You can’t ride my little red wagon
On the rocky shores of Robbinswold Front wheel’s broken
Memories in my heart I’ll hold * And the back wheel’s dragging
Slug! Slug! Slug, slug, slug!
7.) Skies are blue and the trails are long
Joy and love ring in our song Rover
 And you wonder where you’re going
See the clouds rolling on their way Where’s the rhyme and where’s the
See the stars shining so gay Reason, and it’s you who can’t accept
Hear the wind in the tall pine trees It is here we must begin
And you’ll know exactly why I’m free To seek the wisdom of the children
And the graceful way of flowers in the wind
Chorus: For the children and the flowers are our sisters and
I am a rover rolling along Our brothers, their laughter and
Rover, singing a song Their loveliness could clear a cloudy
I am a rover until the day I die Day. Like the music of the mountains
And the colors of the rainbow they’re
Have few friends but they are true A promise of the future and a blessing
A mountain, flower and a sky so blue For today.
I am a wanderer, never standing still
And I must go onward to those hills

Chorus
Rice Crispies
Through this land I’m bound to roam
Without a friend, a fire or a home, Snap now, snap now, snap’s the sound
But I have a friend that is true, You gotta have snap or the world’s not round
And that, my comrade, that is you I snap, you snap, we snap, they snap
Snap! (pause, pause) Makes the world go round
Chorus
Crackle, crackle, the crispy sound
You gotta have crackle or the clock’s not wound
Geese cackle, feathers tickle, boys are fickle, have a pickle
Rhymes and Reasons (pause) Crackle! (pause) Makes the world go round

So you speak to me of sadness I insist that pop’s the sound

And the coming of the winter, the You’ve gotta have pop or the world’s not round
Fear that is within you now, it Orange pop, grape pop, lemon pop, lime pop
Seems to never end. And the (pause, pause) Pop! Makes the world go round
Dreams that have escaped you
And the hopes that you’ve forgotten Snap, crackle, pop rice krispie
And you tell me that you need me now
And you want to be my friend Ride on the Wind
 (echo) From the rising of the sun
1.) Ride on the wind of a summer’s day (together) To the going down of the same
Ride on the wind and be a world away (echo) Mother Earth
Reach for the sun and touch the moon too (echo) Is to be praised
Reach for the sun and touch the moon

2.) Find yourself before you run away

Stand in the grass and watch the children play
Their world is really half of yours too Riverboat
Their world is really half of yours
*No, I ain’t gonna step down off that riverboat
3.) Where ‘ere you go be sure to see the sky No, I ain’t gonna step down off that riverboat
Don’t let your only chances pass you by ‘Cause if I step down off that riverboat
Reach for the sun and touch the moon too Oh, I don’t think that I’m gonna float
Reach for the sun and touch the moon ‘Cause there’s mud just below that sparkling water
Yes, there’s mud just below that sparkling water
4.) Repeat verse 1 And it’s soft, soft, deep and warm
Settled ‘neath the river once in a storm
Mud just below that sparkling water*

Once had a daughter strong and fine

Riggidy Jig Grew up said she didn’t wanna be mine
Said I understood and felt the same (2,3,4)
Riggidy Jig and away we go Now she runs a school for girls
Away we go, away we go Each one tougher than a redwood burl
Riggidy jig and away we go Growing up stronger than the world into which they came *
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho
When, oh when, will I ever learn
We were starved as starved could be It’s not just fire that makes me burn
But now we’ve had enough to eat It’s not just ice that cools my flaming skin (2,3,4)
Riggidy jig and away we go But if I get caught it’ll cook me good
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho And that’s not the road to sisterhood
Where I’m going is the same as where I’ve been *

Rising of the Sun River of Life

 I’ve got a river of life flowing out of me Taps sounding softly
Makes the lame to walk and the blind to sea Hearts beating true
Opens prison doors, sets the captives free As we all sing, good night to you
I’ve got a river of life flowing out of me
Good night:
Spring forth well inside my soul Good night, good night
Spring forth a well, and make me whole As the evening shadows creep into the night
Spring forth well, and let me see With each living glowing ember
That life, which shines in me There’s a friendship to remember
As we sing

Her name was Sarah and when she smiled
You could see her teeth for miles and miles
And her tonsils… and her adenoids

Or you toothbrush, or your counselor? Look out! Look out!

That may not be denied And take it with you on your way,

With the white clouds flying You’re the one I won’t forget,
And the flung spray and the blown spume Hope some kind of wind blows you back my way.
And the seagulls crying
Chorus:
I must go down to the sea again And I was thinking maybe somewhere later down the road,
To the lonely sea and sky After all out stories have been told,
And all I ask is a tall ship I’ll sit and think of you,
And a star to steep her by You’re the dear friend I once knew,
And the wheel’s kick and the winds’ song Shot through my life like a shooting star.
And the white sails shaking
And a gray mist on they seas’ face You are my dears, you’re my bright and shining stars,
And a gray dawn breaking You brighten each and every day,
You are so near, yet soon you’ll be so far,
So why not hold my hand today?

Shangy Mama Chorus

 Sometimes I know that a part of you will show, Something happens when I’m near you
Somewhere in my eyes or in my smile, And I just can’t wait to hear you… *
They’ll always be some part of you deep inside my heart,
And I know just when to let it show.

Sing Me a Rainbow

*Sing me a rainbow, paint me a dream Sing With Joy

Show me a world that I’ve never seen
Whisper a sunset, and when you do Sing, sing with joy,
You’ll know how I feel, I say you’ll know how I feel Sing with joy that knows no end
You’ll know how I feel when I’m with you* Sing, sing with love
Welcome home my dearest friend
…Walked into my life on such an ordinary day Round, and round, and round, and round we go
But it’s been extraordinary since you’ve come my way The love and laughter set your face a-glowing dear
There’s nothing in this world that I can’t do
As long as you continue to… * (a round to be started after the first line)

…Brought something special to a life that was so plain Sisters Around the World
Feelings that you’ve turned me onto I just can’t explain
 Sisters around the world, friendship across the sea I’ve got a dog, skinny as a rail
We raise our voices high in harmony He’s got fleas all over his tail
The world lies just ahead, the sun will shine Every time his tail goes pop
In each and ever land, for all to find The fleas on the bottom all hop to the top

There’ll be many a road to travel, many a hill to climb

I’m gonna reach that mountain top Slap, Bang!
If it takes till the end of time!
Boom, boom, boom Slap! Bang! Here we go again,
Here we go again, here we go again
(repeat first verse) Slap! Bang! Here we go again,
Jolly good friends are we!
We laugh, we sing
We laugh, Ha! Ha! We sing, Tra la!
Slap! Bang! Here we go again,
Skeeters and the Bedbugs Jolly good friends are we!

I woke up Sunday morning (can also be sung Bang, Slap!)

I looked up on the wall
The skeeters and the bedbugs were having a game of ball
The score was 6 to nothing, the skeeters were ahead
The bedbugs hit a homerun and knocked me out of bed * Slick Chick

*Singin’ ee-ner, mea-ner and a min-er mo Oh I once had a chicken that wouldn’t lay an egg
Catch a wiper wopperby the toe So I poured hot water up and down her leg
And if he hollers, hollers, hollers And the little chicken cried, and the little chicken begged
Don’t let him go And the gosh darn chicken laid a hard boiled egg!
Singin’ ee-ner, mea-ner, and a mi-ner mo* Boom diddly-ada, slick chick!

I went downstairs for breakfast (colored dye/Easter egg, hot chocolate/Cadbury egg,
I ordered ham and eggs DNA/dinosaur egg, etc.)
I ate so many pickles,
The juice ran down my leg *

Skinny Dog Smile Awhile

 Smile awhile, and give your face a rest To be alive, to be your friend
Raise your hand to the one you love the best Now I know we all have stormy weather
Then shake hands with the one nearby The sun shines through when we’re together
And greet them with a smile awhile I’ll be your friend right through the end

Song of the Soul

Song for Judith
Open mine eyes that I might see
Sometimes I remember the old days, Glimpses of truth thou hast for me
When the world was filled with sorrow Open mine eyes illumin me
You might have thought that I was living Spirit Divine
But I was all alone
In my heart the rain was falling Love of my life, I am crying
The wind blew, the night was calling I am not dying, I am dancing
Come back, come back Dancing along in the madness
I’m all you’ve ever known * There is no sadness
Only a song of the soul *
*Open the door and come on in *And we’ll sing this song, why don’t you sing along
I’m so glad to see you my friend And we can sing for a long time
You’re like the rainbow Why don’t you sing this song
Coming around the bend Why don’t you sing along
And when I see you happy And we can sing for a long time*
Well, it sets my heart free
I’d like to be as good a friend to you What do you do for a living,
As you are to me* Are you forgiving, giving shelter
Follow your heart, love will find you
There are friends who could always see me Truth will unbind you
Through the haze their smiles would reach me Sin gout the song of the soul *
Saying okay, saying good-bye, saying hello
Soon I knew what I was after Come to your life like a warrior
Was life and love, tears and laughter Nothing will bore, you can be happy
Hello my good friend, hello my darling, what do you know? Let in the light it will heal you
* And you can feel you
And sing out a song of the soul *
I used to think it was only me
Living alone, not feeling free Southerly Wind
 Five little speckled frogs, sitting on a hallow log
Oh a southerly wind and a cloudy sky, Eating some most delicious bugs, yum yum!
Proclaiming a hunting morning Once jumped into the pool, where it was nice and cool
It’s over the hills and away we fly Now there are four little speckled frogs, ribbit ribbit!
No sleep my downy bed scorning (Repeat counting down)
To horse, my friend, and away
Great Phoebus the hills adorning
The face of all nature is gay
It’s a beautiful hunting morning
Hark, hark follow! Tally-ho, tally-ho, tally-ho Spider’s Web
Hark, hark follow! Tally-ho, tally-ho, tally-ho
It’s a web like a spider’s web
Made of silk and light and shadow
Spun by the moon in my room at night
Sparrow Song It’s a web made to catch some dreams
Hold them fast till I awaken
(echo) Do you love me? As if to tell me my dreams are all right
Said the sparrow to the tree
I will always
Let you be what you must be *
Spirit Springing
*(together) In the autumn
In the spring What a spirit, spirit, springing round my head
I will give you Makes me feel glad that I’m not dead
Songs to sing* What a spirit, spirit, springing round my head
Makes me feel glad that I’m not dead
(echo) Will you take me?
Underneath your hallowed light A-witchi-tie-tie-kee-mo-rye
And protect me Ow-a-nicka, ow-a-nicka
Even through the darkest night * Hey-nay, hey-nay, noah (2x)

Speckled Frogs Squirrel, Squirrel

 Squirrel, squirrel, shake your bushy tail
Squirrel, squirrel, shake your bushy tail
Wrinkle up your little nose, stick it in between your toes
Squirrel, squirrel, shake your bushy tail
Super California Surfer

Starfish and Coffee Because I was afraid to surf when I was just a lad,
My father took away my board and told me I was bad
7:45, we stood in line for our teacher, Miss Kathleen (you’re bad!)
First came Kevin, then came Lucy, third in line was me. And then one day I heard the word that ever surfer knows,
All of us were ordinary, except for Cynthia Rose The longest word I ever heard and this is how it goes!
She always stood at the back of the line
With a smile beneath her nose Oh! SuperCaliforniaSurferExpertOnTheOcean
Her favorite number was 20, and every single day Even though the most of them do not wear suntan lotion
If you asked her what she’d had for breakfast, If you hit a wave too hard, you’re always in a motion
This is what she’d say: she’d say SuperCaliforniaSurferExpertOnTheOcean!
Hum-diddle-diddle-diddle Umm-diddle-aye
Chorus: Hum-diddle-diddle-diddle Umm-diddle-aye
Starfish and coffee, (clap) maple syrup and jam (clap clap)
Butterscotch clouds, and tangerines,
and a side order of ham (clap clap)
and if you set your mind free, baby, maybe you’ll understand
starfish and coffee (clap), maple syrup and jam. (clap clap) Superman Grace

Cynthia wore a pretty dress with different colored socks We thank the earth for giving us food
Sometimes I wondered what was in her lunchbox. We thank the earth for giving us food
Lucy and I opened it when Cynthia wasn’t around For the friends we meet, and the food we eat
Lucy cried – I almost died! Do you know what we found? We thank the earth for giving us food

Chorus

Cynthia wore a happy face just like the one she draws
On every wall, of every school - but that’s all right ,
It’s for a worthy cause!

Sweet Baby James

Chorus (last line 2x, 2 time slow) (James Taylor)
 (high part) Swinging along the open road
There is a young cowboy who lives on the range Swinging along under a sky that’s clear
His horse and his cattle are his only companions Swinging along the open road
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons All in the fall, in the fall of the year
Waiting for summer his pastures to change Swinging along, swinging along
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire Swinging along the open road
Thinking about women and glasses of beer All the in the fall of the year
Closing his eyes as the doggies retire
Sings out a song which is soft but is clear Take Me Back
As if maybe someone could hear *
Take me back to the happy land
*Goodnight you moonlight ladies Where the cotton candy grows
Rock-a-bye Sweet Baby James Where the little marshmallows grow on the ground
Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose And the lollipops grow on the ground
Won’t you let me go down in my dreams What? The lollipops grow on the ground?
And rock-a-bye Sweet Baby James* Yes, the lollipops grow on the ground!

The first of December was covered with snow

So was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
The Berkshires seemed dreamlike on account of that frosting Taps
Ten miles behind me, and ten thousand more to go
There’s a song that they sing when they take to the highway Day is done, gone the sun
A song that they sing when they take to the sea From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep All is well, safely rest
But singing works just fine for me And good-night

Swinging Along
Tarzan
(low part) Swinging along, the open road
Under a sky that’s clear Tarzan, swinging on a rubberband
Swinging along, the open road Tarzan, fell into a frying pan
In the fall of the year Ooh, that hurt
Swinging along, swinging along, Now Tarzan has a tan
Swinging along the open road
All in the fall of the year Jane, cruisin’ in her jet plane
Jane, crashed into a traffic lane
 Ooh, that hurt
Now, Jane has a pain, Thank you my friend
Now Tarzan has a tan For sharing with me
Your love and your warmth
(a repeat song, to the tune of Tongo) I’m grateful you see
For all of your wealth
I never could find
Best wishes in life
Tennessee Wiggle Walk Are born in the mind
They grow ‘til they light
I’m a bowlegged chicken, I’m a knock-kneed hen N some one in time
Haven’t been so happy since I don’t know when And I’ve been made warm
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk For friendship is mine
Doin’ the Tennesse Wiggle Walk For friendship is mine

Put your heels together and your knees apart

Snap your fingers, ready and start
Flap your elbows just for luck This Land is Your Land
And you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck
Come dance with me, Baby, keep your toes in time *This land is your land, this land is my land,
From California, to the New York Island
Haven’t been so happy in a long, long time From the Redwood forest, to the Gulf Stream waters
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk This land was made for you and me*
Doin’ the Tennessee Wiggle Walk
Doin’ the Tennessee Wiggle Walk As I was 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 *

Thank You Mother Earth (descant over chorus)

This land is your land, this land is my land
Thank you Mother Earth This land goes from the river to he sea
Thank you sister water I’m singin’ this land is your land, this land is my land
Thank you for our births This land was made for you and me!
Thank you from your daughters

Thank You My Friend Third Fence Post

 I can’t live on promises winter to spring
I’ve been sitting here thinking about leaving For now is my moment, today is my story
When I wanted to stay the most I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing *
So I went outside and left a piece of my heart
Buried ‘neath the third fence post

*So when tomorrow morning comes I’ll be smiling

Though I might be a little down Tomorrow Today
Though my body’s leaving, I’ll still be around*
Haven’t known each other long for time has just begun
I was sitting here thinking about smiling I’m discovering you and you’re discovering me
And the warmth and the love that you give And, I like what I see
So I went inside your little house I see two people laughing and sharing
And felt glad this is how you live * And giving up their time
Risking their love, their pride their own
I’ve been sitting here thinking about flowers and sunshine But becoming much more whole inside *
And the happiness of being alive
Which means I’m thinking of you and the waters and the *And when I think of you my heart sings with joy
mountains And laughter fills my mind
And the plenty of warm open skies * You’re the smile in my heart I’ve got a running start
Though my body’s leaving, I’ll still be around On the road to happiness
One thing’s for certain: I’ll remember you
My time with you will never end my friend
For I’ve got you now as well as yesterday
Today I promise you a piece of my tomorrow today
Tomorrow today*
*Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine You see yourself I ask nothing else I love true honesty
A million tomorrows will all pass away I’ll give you room to grow so that you’re able to know
Ere I forget all the joys that are mine today* You’re special to me
And when I see you change I won’t rearrange
I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover Your life to be like mine
You’ll know who I am by the song that I sing You’re one of a kind and like fruit on the vine
I’ll feast at your table, and sleep in your clover You’ve opened up the world for me *
Who knows what tomorrow shall bring *
I’m so proud to have you as my friend
I can’t be contented by yesterday’s glories And I’m so thankful that you’ve chosen me
 Chosen me (echo) Too ollay-lay mao mao
Gee-o lay lay mao mao
And when it’s time to leave there will be a tear Too ollay-lay mao mao
But it’s one of gratefulness Gee-o lay lay mao mao
I’ll be singing with joy that you’ve opened the door (together) Austen gee-lee, gwinzop gwin-zollay
And opened me Agua lay-lay mao mao lay mao mao
And some people say that our time is short Too ollay-lay mao mao
And all good things must end
But that isn’t true because I’m giving to you
A piece of my tomorrow too *

Tony Chestnut True Blue Billy

Tony Chestnut, I grew up in the mountains

Chest got back from the frong Up where the snakes have legs,
He shouldered his arms to face defeat Where the hoot owls speak in English
Hip, hip, hooray! And the roosters lay square eggs.
I shaved my beard and moustache,
The morning I was born,
Too Ollay-lay Mao Mao And then I wrestled my old man
And I ate his rye and corn.
 Sunshine dancing on mountain tops
*Oh, I’m a truthful fellow, Morning shadows seem to run away
They call me True Blue Bill Music echoes from trees and rocks
I never told false said “no” The whole world smiles ‘cause it’s Tuesday
And I bet I never will. Doo doo doo, do do do do
Oh true-oo, blue-oo, Bill-ee* Do do do do do do do do do do do
Doo doo doo, do do do do
One day when I was flying The whole world smiles ‘cause it’s Tuesday
In my aeroplane,
I flew across to Paris
And I started home again.
When I got halfway back over Turn, Turn, Turn
The gosh darn motor balked (Pete Seeger)
So I let it just right sit up there
And I got right out and walked. * *To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
One day when I was shipwrecked And a time for every purpose under heaven*
In Islands in the seas,
I was captured by some cannibals A time to be born, a time to die
And tied up to the trees. A time to plant, a time to reap
Oh they danced and beat their tom-toms A time to kill, a time to heal
(Do-do do do do, beat chest) A time to laugh, a time to weep *
And it got rather rough,
But they said I would not make good steak A time to build up, a time to break down
Cause I was too gosh darn tough. A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
Oh the father of our country A time to gather stones together *
Could never tell a lie,
And he was my great-uncle soooooo A time of love, a time of hate
I ask you why should I? A time of war, a time of peace
Oh, True-oo, Blue-oo, Bill-ee A time you may embrace
Oh-oh-oh True-oo, Blue-oo, Bill-ee A time to refrain from embracing *

A time to gain, a time to lose

A time to rend, a time to sew
Tuesday Song A time to love, a time to hate
A time of peace, I swear it’s not too late *
 Tzena “I think it ought to be twenty-two.”
“Just what I think myself,” said Pooh
Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, “It wasn’t an easy sum to do,
Can’t you hear the music playing But that’s what it is,” said Pooh, said he.
In the village square? (2x) “That’s what it is,” said Pooh.

Tzena, Tzena, join the celebration “Let’s look for dragons,” I said to Pooh.
There’ll be people there from every nation “Yes, let’s,” said Pooh to me.
Dawn will find us dancing in the sunlight We crossed the river and found a few
Dancing in the village square “Yes, those are the dragons all right,” said Pooh.
As soon as I saw their beaks I knew
“That’s what they are,” said Pooh, says he.
“That’s what they are,” said Pooh.
Under the Full Moonlight
“Let’s frighten the dragons,” I said to Pooh.
Under the full moonlight “That’s right,” said Pooh to me.
We danced, spirits “I’m not afraid,” I said to Pooh
Danced we danced joining And held his paw and I shouted “Shoo!”
Hands we danced joining Silly old dragons—and off they flew.
Souls, rejoice! “I wasn’t afraid,” said Pooh, said he
“I’m never afraid with you.”
(a round to be started after “moon”)
So wherever I am, there’s always Pooh.
There’s always Pooh and me
“What would I do?” I said to Pooh
Us Two “If it wasn’t for you,” and Pooh said, “True,
It isn’t much fun for one, but two
Wherever I am, there’s always Pooh Can stick together,” says Pooh, says he,
There’s always Pooh and me “That’s how it is,” says Pooh.
Whatever I do, he wants to do,
“Where are you going today?” says Pooh
“Well, that’s very odd ‘cause I was too.
Let’s go together,” says Pooh, says he.
“Let’s go together,” says Pooh.

“What’s twice eleven?” I said to Pooh

“Twice what?” said Pooh to me
