If you don't love me, love whom you please
Throw your arms round me, give my heart ease

Throw your arms round me, give my heart ease

Throw your arms round me, feel my heart break
Feel my heart break, dear, feel my heart break
Throw your arms round me, feel my heart break

They say that when you're camping,

the bugs have gone away
But every time you inhale
there's something in your way!
the swimming's mighty fine
You step into the water,
it shrivels up your spine!
the boats are mighty fine
You sail a hundred miles
and swim back ninety nine!
The tents they have for camping,
they say they're mighty neat
But when you go inside them,
they smell like stinky feet!
They say here at camp
the bugs are mighty fine
One flew into the tent last night
and squashed a friend of mine.

My knapsack on my back.
I love to wander by the stream
That dances in the sun,
So joyously it calls to me,
"Come! Join my happy song!"
I wave my hat to all I meet,
And they wave back to me,
And blackbirds call so loud and sweet
From ev'ry green wood tree.
High overhead, the skylarks wing,
They never rest at home
But just like me, they love to sing,
As o'er the world we roam.
Oh, may I go a-wandering
Until the day I die!
Oh, may I always laugh and sing,
Beneath God's clear blue sky!

Oh, give me a land where the bright diamond sand
Flows leisurely down the stream;
Where the graceful white swan goes gliding along
Like a maid in a heavenly dream.
How often at night when the heavens are bright
With the light of the glittering stars,
Have I stood here amazed and asked as I gazed
If their glory exceeds that of ours.
Then I would not exchange my home on the range,
Where the deer and the antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

That's why they call him Smokey, that was how he got his name.
You can take a tip from Smokey that there's nothin' like a tree,
Cause they're good for kids to climb in and they're beautiful to see.
You just have to look around you and you'll find it's not a joke,
To see what you'd be missin' if they all went up in smoke.

You can camp upon his doorstep and he'll make you feel at home,
You can run and hunt and ramble anywhere you care to roam.
He will let you take his honey and pretend he's not so smart,
But don't you harm his trees for he's a ranger in his heart.
If you've ever seen the forest when a fire is running wild,
And you love the things within it like a mother loves her child,
Then you know why Smokey tells you
when he sees you passing through,
"Remember ... please be careful ... it's the least that you can do."
Waltzing With Bears

nowhere in sight,
waltzing at night.
We bought Uncle Walter a new coat to wear,

But when he came back it was covered with hair.
And lately I've noticed there's several new tears,
I think Uncle Walter's been waltzing with bears.
We told Uncle Walter that he should be good,
And do all the things that we said that he should.
But I know that he'd rather be out in the woods
I'm afraid we'll lose Uncle Walter for good.

We begged and we pleaded "oh please don't you stay
And we managed to keep him for almost a day.
But the bears all barged in and they took him away,
Now he's dancing with Pandas
and he can't understand us,
And the bears all demand
at least one dance a day.

Bill Grogan's Goat

There was a man who had a goat

He loved that goat just like a kid.
One

The
And
day that goat felt frisky and fine

three red shirts right off the line
man, he grabbed him by the back
tied him to a railroad track.
Now, when that train rolled into sight

That goat grew pale and green with fright
He heaved a sigh as if in pain
Coughed up those shirts and flagged the train!

Oh, they had a little party down in Newport;
There was Harry, there was Mary, there was Grace.
Oh, they had a little party down in Newport,

And they had to carry Harry from the place.
Oh, they had to carry Harry to the ferry,
And the ferry carried Harry to the shore;
And the reason that they had to
carry Harry to the ferry
Was that Harry couldnt carry any more.
For California, for California,
The hills send back the cry,
Were out to do or die,
For California, for California,
Well win the game
or know the reason why.
And when the game is over,
we will buy a keg of booze,
And drink to California
till we wobble in our shoes.
So drink, tra la la,
Drink, tra la la,
Drink, drank, drunk last night,
Drunk the night before;
Gonna get drunk tonight
Like I never got drunk before;
8a
For when Im drunk, Im as happy as can be
For I am member of the Souse family.
Now the Souse family is the best family
That ever came over from old Germany.
Theres the Highland Dutch, and the Lowland Dutch,
The Rotterdam Dutch, and the Irish.
Sing glorious, victorious,
One keg of beer for the four of us.
Sing glory be to God that there are no more of us,
For one of us could drink it all alone. Damn near.
Heres to the Irish, dead drunk. The lucky stiffs.
Clementine
C
In a cavern, in a canyon
G7
Excavating for a mine
C
Lived a miner, forty-niner
G7
C
And his daughter, Clementine
Chorus:
Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine
Light she was and like a fairy
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes without topses
Sandals were for Clementine
Drove she ducklings to the water
Every morning just at nine
Hit her foot against a splinter
Fell into the foaming brine
Ruby lips above the water
Blowing bubbles soft and fine
But alas, I was no swimmer
So I lost my Clementine
Then the miner, forty-niner
Soon began to peak and pine
Thought he oughta join his daughter
Now he's with his Clementine
There's a churchyard on the hillside
Where the flowers grow and twine
There grow roses, 'mongst the posies
Fertilized by Clementine
8b
In my dreams she still doth haunt me
Robed in garlands soaked in brine
Though in life I used to hug her
Now she's dead, I draw the line
Now you friends may learn the moral
Of this little tale of mine
Artificial respiration
Would have saved my Clementine
How I missed her, how I missed her
How I missed my Clementine
Till I kissed her little sister
And forgot my Clementine

My Grandfather's Clock
D

My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf
D

D
A7
D
G
But it stopped short never to go again
D
A7 D
When the old man died.
In watching its pendulum swing to and fro,
Many hours had he spent as a boy;
And in childhood and manhood the clock seemed to know
And to share both his grief and his joy.
For it struck twenty-four when he entered at the door
With a blooming and beautiful bride.

But it stopped, short, never to go again
My grandfather said that of those he could hire,
Not a servant so faithful he found;
For it wasted no time, and had but one desire:
At the close of each week to be wound.
And it kept in its place, not a frown upon its face,
And its hands never hung by its side.
It rang in alarm in the dead of the night,
An alarm that for years had been dumb.
And we knew that his spirit was plumbing its flight,
That his hour of departure had come.
Still the clock kept the time, with a soft and muffled chime,
As we silently stood by his side

Was the great big feather bed
Chorus
G
C
G
It was nine feet high, six feet wide, Soft as a downy chick
G
C
It was made of the feathers of forty-eleven geese
G
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
G
C
It could hold eight kids, four hound dogs

G
And the piggy that we stole form the shed (oink, oink!)
G
C
Didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
D
G
In Grandma's feather bed
After supper we'd sit around the fire,
The old folks'd spit and chew,
Paw would talk about the farm and the war,
Granny'd sing a ballad or two.
I'd sit and listen and watch the fire
'til the cobwebs filled my head.
Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning
In the middle of the old feather bed.
Well I love my Ma, I love my Pa,
Love Granny and Grandpa too,
Been fishing with my uncle, and rassled with my cousin,
I even kissed Aunt Loo (ooouu!)
But if I ever had to make a choice,
I guess it ought to be said
That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road,
For Grandma's feather bed!

Into a vat of mortar I fell from the 7th floor
In all my life, Ive never been so mortar-fied before

Oh, the kick he gave to me
Between the front door and the tree
Yes Im unlucky, deny it no one can,

Let me tell you of a story 'bout a man named Charlie
C
G7
On a tragic and fateful day.
C
F
He put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his wife and family,
C
G7 C
Went to ride on the M T A.
C
F
But will he ever return? No he'll never return,
C
G7
And his fate is still unlearned.
C
F
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston,
C
G7
C
He's the man who never returned.
Charlie handed in his dime at the Kendall Street Station
With a change for Jamaica Plain,
When he got there the conductor told him, "One more nickel,"
Charlie couldn't get off of that train.
All night long Charlie rides through the station
Crying "What will become of me?"
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea
Or my cousin in Roxbury?"
Charlie's wife goes down to the Scully Square Station
Every day at a quarter past two.
And through the open window she hands Charlie a sandwich
As the train goes rumblin' through.
Oh, ye citizens of Boston, don't you think it a scandal
How the people have to pay and pay?
Fight the fare increase, vote for George O'Brien!
And get Charlie off the M.T.A.

On top of Old Smokey
C
All covered with snow,
G7
I lost my true lover
C
From courting too slow.
Now, courting is a pleasure and parting is grief,
And a false-hearted lover is worse than a thief.
Say, a thief will just rob you and take what you have,
But a false-hearted lover will lead you to the grave.
And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust;
Not one boy in a hundred a poor girl can trust.
They'll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than the cross ties on the railroad or stars in the sky.
So, come all you young maidens and listen to me,
Never place your affection on a green willow tree.
For the leaves they will wither, and the roots they will die,
You'll all be forsaken and never know why.
On top of Old Smoky all covered with snow,
I lost my true lover from courting too slow.

Puff the magic dragon, lived by the sea,
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honna-lee,

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail,
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail.
Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name.
A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys,
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys,
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more,
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.
His head was bent in sorrow; green scales fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the Cherry Lane.
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave.
So, Puff that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave.

Did you ever hear tell of Sweet Betsy from Pike,
A7
D
Who crossed the wide mountains with her lover Ike,
G
C
G
Two yoke of cattle, a large yeller dog,
D
G
A tall Shanghai rooster, and a one-spotted hog.
Singing too-ra-li-oo-ra-li-oo-ra-li-ay
One evening quite early they camped on the Platte,
Twas near by the road on a green shady flat.
Betsy, sore-footed, lay down to repose
With wonder, Ike gazed on that Pike County rose.
Singing too-ra-li-oo-ra-li-oo-ra-li-ay!
They soon reached the desert where Betsy gave out,
And down in the sand she lay rolling about.
Ike in great wonder looked on in surprise,
Saying, "Betsy, get up, you'll get sand in your eyes."
Sweet Betsy got up in a great deal of pain.
She declared she'd go back to Pike County again.
Ike gave a sigh, and they fondly embraced,
And they traveled along with his arm round her waist.
15b
The Shanghai ran off and the cattle all died,
That morning, the last piece of bacon was fried.
Ike got discouraged, and Betsy got mad,
The dog drooped his tail and looked wonderfully sad.
They swam the wide rivers and crossed the tall peaks,
And camped on the prairie for weeks upon weeks.
Starvation and cholera, hard work and slaughter;
They reached California 'spite hell and high water.

A7
Manners that suited a girl of her charms
A7
A girl that he wanted to take in his

They could get married and raise lots of
Chorus
The girl told the farmer that he'd better stop
And she called her father and he called a
Taxi and got there before very long,
'Cause someone was doing his little girl
Right for a change and so that's why he said,
"If you marry her, son, you're better off
Single 'cause it's always been my belief,
Marriage will bring a man nothing but
Chorus
16a
The farmer decided he'd wed any way,
And started in planning for his wedding
Suit, which he purchased for only one buck,
But then he found out he was just out of
Money and so he got left in the lurch,
Standing and waiting in front of the
End of this story which just goes to show,
All a girl wants from a man is his

D
A7
D
They were nearing to the shore, when the water began to pour.
And the rich refused to associate with the poor,
So they sent them down below where they'd be the first to go.
Lady Astor turned around just to see her husband drown,
as the ship Titanic made a gurgling sound.
So she wrapped herself in mink, as the ship began to sink.
It was sad when the great ship when down.
Now the moral of the story is very plain to see,
You should wear a life preserver when you go out to sea.
The Titanic never made it and never more shall be.

Once upon a time in a nursery rhyme, there were three bears.
One was the papa bear, and one was the mama bear,
And one was the wee bear.
They all went a-walkin' in the deep woods a-talkin'
And along came a girl with long golden curls.
She knocked on the door, but no one was home.
Along came those three bears
Someone has eaten my porridge, said the papa bear, Said the papa bear
Someone has eaten my porridge, said the mama bear, Said the mama bear
Hey mama she bear, said the little wee bear, SOMEONE HAS BROKEN MY

Thine alabaster cities gleam undimmed by human tears!
America! America! God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea!

I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps,
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps:
His day is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies He was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.

Land of the noble free,

Thy name I love.
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture fills
Like that above.
Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedoms song.
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.
Our father God to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing.
Long may our land be bright
With freedoms holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King!

Stars and Stripes Forever(John Philip Souza)
Let martial note in triumph float
And liberty extend its mighty hand
A flag appears 'mid thunderous cheers,
The banner of the Western land.
The emblem of the brave and true
Its folds protect no tyrant crew;
The red and white and starry blue
Is freedom's shield and hope.
Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of Freedom's nation.

Hurrah for the flag of the free!
May it wave as our standard forever,
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right.
Let despots remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever.
Let eagle shriek from lofty peak
The never-ending watchword of our land;
Let summer breeze waft through the trees
The echo of the chorus grand.
Sing out for liberty and light,
Sing out for freedom and the right.
Sing out for Union and its might,
O patriotic sons.
Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation,
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of Freedom's nation.

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foes haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, oer the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the mornings first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave

Oer the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore

That the havoc of war and the battles confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand

Between their loved home and the wars desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heavn rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: In God is our trust.
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave

And the wheat fields waving, and the dust clouds rolling,
As the fog was lifting, a voice was chanting,

I started singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
chorus
25a
Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me
Oh, and while the king was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned
And while Lenin read a book on Marx
A quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
We were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
chorus
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass

With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the halftime air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
'Cause the players tried to take the field
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?
We started singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
chorus
Oh, and there we were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
'Cause fire is the devil's only friend
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break that Satan's spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
He was singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
chorus

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
And in the streets, the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
And they were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie

How many years can some mountains exist before they're washed to the

How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head and pretend that he just
doesn't see
How many times must a man look up before he reaches the sky
How many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry
How many deaths will it take till he knows that too many people have
died

See you later, can I have them please"

Don't know the reason, stayed here all season
With nothing to show but this brand new tattoo.
But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie,
how it got here I haven't a clue.
Wasted away again in Margaritaville,
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
Now I think, - hell it could be my fault.
I blew out my flip flop, stepped on a pop top,
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home.
But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.
Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
But I know, it's my own damn fault.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
And I know it's my own damn fault.

On the bloody morning after - one tin soldier rides away.
So the people of the valley sent a message up the hill.

Asking for the buried treasure tons of gold for which theyd kill.
Came and answer from the kingdom With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain, all the riches buried there.
Chorus
Now the valley cried with anger mount your horses, draw your sword.
And they killed the mountain people so they won there just reward.
Now they stood beside the treasure on the mountain, dark and red.
Turned the stone and looked beneath it Peace On Earth was all it
said.

It keeps changing fast, and it don't last for long

mountains, he saw silver clouds below;

far as you can see
got crazy once, and he tried to touch the sun;
but kept the memory
Now he walks in quiet solitude, the forests and the streams;

seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand;
the serenity of a clear blue mountain lake
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high

talk to God and listen to the casual reply
Now his life is full of wonder, but his heart still knows some fear;
of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down, to bring in a couple more;
more people, more scars upon the land
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky Mountain high
Friends around the campfire and every body's high

You its only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dyin'
That never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely

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

And there the world below don't bother me
So when I come home feeling tired and beat,

I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet.
I'll get far away from the hustling crowd
and all the rat-race noise down in the street.
On the roof, that's the only place I know,
Where you just have to wish to make it so,
And at night the stars, they put on a show for free.
And, darling, you can share it all with me,
that's what I said, keep on telling you
That right smack dab in the middle of town,
I found a paradise that's trouble-proof.
And if this old world starts a getting you down,
there's room enough for two up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the
roof.
Everything is all right, everything is all right.
You got the stars above and the city lights below, let's go up on the
roof.

Camelot
A law was made a distant moon ago here: July and August cannot be too
hot.
And there's a legal limit to the snow here in Camelot.
The winter is forbidden till December and exits March the second on
the dot.
By order, summer lingers through September in Camelot.
Camelot! Camelot! I know it sounds a bit bizarre,
But in Camelot, Camelot
that's how conditions are.
The rain may never fall till after sundown.
By eight, the morning fog must disappear.
In short, there's simply not a more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here in Camelot.
Camelot! Camelot! I know it gives a person pause,
But in Camelot, Camelot those are the legal laws.
The snow may never slush upon the hillside.
By nine p.m. the moonlight must appear.
In short, there's simply not a more congenial spot
For happily-ever-aftering than here in Camelot.

and one more leading nowhere, just for show
I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese
And ducks for the town to see and hear
Squawking just as noisily as they can
And each loud "Pa-pa-gee! Pa-pa-gaack!
Pa-pa-gee! Pa-pa-gaack!"
Would land like a trumpet on the ear
As if to say, "Here lives a wealthy man", oy!
Chorus
I see my wife, my Golde, looking like a rich man's wife
With a proper double chin
Supervising meals to her heart's delight
I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock
Oy! What a happy mood she's in
Screaming at the servants day and night
The most important men in town will come to fawn on me

They will ask me to advise them like a Solomon the Wise
"If you please, Reb Tevye, pardon me, Reb Tevye?"
Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes
Ya va voy, ya va voy, voy vum
And it won't make one bit of difference
If I answer right or wrong
When you're rich, they think you really know
If I were rich, I'd have the time that I lack
To sit in the synagogue and pray
And maybe have a seat by the Eastern wall
39a
And I'd discuss the holy books with the learned men
Seven hours every day
That would be the sweetest thing of all, oy!
Chorus (skip last 2 lines)
Lord who made the lion and the lamb
You decreed I should be what I am
Would it spoil some vast, eternal plan
If I were a wealthy man?

With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand
They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuosos
The cream of every famous band

With a hundred and ten cornets right behind

There were more than a thousand reeds springing up like weeds
There were horns of every shape and kind
Seventy-six trombones played the counter part.
while one hundred and ten cornets played the air.

Shall We Dance? (The King and I)

We've just been introduced
I do not know you well
But when the music started
Something drew me to your side
So many men and girls
Are in each others arms
It made me think we might be
Similarly occupied
Shall we dance?
On a bright cloud of music shall we fly?
Shall we dance?
Shall we then say goodnight and mean goodbye
Or perchance
When the last little star has left the sky
Shall we still be together
With our arms around each other
And shall you be my new romance?
On the clear understanding
That this kind of thing can happen
Shall we dance?
Shall we dance?
Shall we dance?

With a little bit of bloomin' luck!

But with my little bit of luck A man can duck!
The Lord above made man to help is neighbor,
No matter where, on land, or sea, or foam.
The Lord above made man to help his neighbor-but
When he comes around you won't be home!
With a little bit of luck, You won't be home.
With a little bit, with a little bit
A man was made to help support his children
Which is the right and proper thing to do
A man was made to help support his children-but
With a little bit of luck, With a little bit of luck
They'll go out and start supporting you!

And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear

Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue?
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
'Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
You're working too hard
And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true

I hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze;
But when I think that God, his Son not sparing,
Sent him to die, I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin;
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, "My God, how great thou art!

But they would not dance and they wouldn't follow me.
I danced for the fishermen, for James and John;
They came with me and the Dance went on.
I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame.
The Holy people said it was a shame.
They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high;
They left me there on a cross to die.
danced on a Friday when the sky turned black;
Its hard to dance with the devil on your back.
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone,
But I am the dance and I still go on.
49b
They cut me down, and I leaped up high,
For I am the life that will never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me,
For I am the Lord of the Dance, said He.

Born of the one light Eden saw play.
Praise with elation, praise every morning,
God's re-creation of the new day.
Cool the gray clouds roll, peaking the mountains,
Gull in her free flight, swooping the skies.
Praise for the mystery, misting the morning,
Behind the shadow, waiting to shine.
I am the sunrise, warming the heavens,
Spilling my warm glow over the earth.
Praise for the brightness of this new morning,
Filling my spirit with Your great love.
Mine is a turning, mine is a new life,
Mine is a journey closer to You.
Praise for the sweet glimpse, caught in a moment,
Joy breathing deeply, dancing in flight.

From afar, Shines a star; in the night.

We shall meet with the morn', so good night.

I really think that dear God above

Created you just for me to love;
He picked you out from all the rest
Because he knew that I'd love you the best.

The Bear Song

Classics & Oldies

Rounds, Elimination, Motions

And the Green Grass Grew All Around

America the Beautiful

Rock & Pop

Broadway & Movies

The Bare Necessities

Spiritual & Religious

You Cant Get to Heaven

Quiet and Lullabies

Good Night, Ladies

Camping & Outdoors

The Bear Went Over the Mountain

All my mem'ries, gather 'round her,

Down in the Valley

Throw your arms round me, before it's too late

Gee Mom, I Wanna Go Home

Oh, I don't want no more of camping life

Gee Mom I want to go

They say that when you're camping,

Happy trails to you keep smiling until then

The Happy Wanderer

Home on the Range

Shenandoah, I love your daughter...

Smokey the Bear

To see what you'd be missin' if they all went up in smoke.

Waltzing With Bears

middle of the night,

We bought Uncle Walter a new coat to wear,

I'm afraid we'll lose Uncle Walter for good.

Classics & Oldies

day that goat felt frisky and fine

Now, when that train rolled into sight

California Drinking Song

Oh, they had a little party down in Newport,

Eddie Cucha Cacha Camma

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

For hed many a mile to go that night

He ran till he came to a great big pen,

he went to the top of the hill,

He ran till he came to his cozy den,

With a blooming and beautiful bride.

Grandma's Feather Bed

It could hold eight kids, four hound dogs

I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters

a bell, I'd ring it in the morning;

a song, I'd sing it in the morning;

Well, I have a hammer, and I've got a bell (to ring),

I've Been Working on the Railroad

The Most Unlucky Man

you did see

Yes Im unlucky, deny it no one can,

My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

(G) over the (D) ocean,

D) Bring back, (G) bring back,

On Top of Old Smokey

Puff the Magic Dragon

And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honna-lee,

The Riddle Song
