Pink Pajamas

Tune; Battle Hymn of the Republic

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

I wear my flannel nightie in the winter when it’s not.

And sometimes in the springtime and sometimes in the fall,

I jump right in between the sheets with nothing on at all.

Chorus: Glory, Glory, Hallelujah. Glory, Glory what’s it to you

Balmy breezes blowing thru you

With nothing on at all.

Do Your Ears Hang Low?

Do your ears hang low? Do they wobble to and fro?

Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie then in a bow?

Can you fling them over your shoulder like a continental soldier?

Do your ears hang low?

Hump-ty Dump

CHORUS:

Hump-ty Dump,

Hump-Hump-ty Dumpty Dumpty,

Hump-ty Dump,

Hump-Hump-ty Dumpty Dumpty.

SAY:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

Ooo! Ain’t that funky?

CHORUS:

SAY: Little Miss Muffett sat on a tuffet. Eating her curds and whey.

Along came a spider & sat down beside her.

Ooo! Ain't that funky?

CHORUS:

SAY: (Any nursery rhyme should work)

Linger

Mm mm I want to linger

Mm mm a little longer

Mm mm a little longer here with you.

Mm mm its such a perfect night

Mm mm it doesn’t seem quite right

Mm mm that this should be my last with you.

Mm mm and come September

Mm mm I will remember

Mm mm the campfires bright and friendships true.

Mm mm and as the years go by

Mm mm I’ll think of you and sigh

Mm mm it was a good night and not good bye.

Mm mm I want to linger

Mm mm a little longer

Mm mm a little longer here with you.

God our Father

Tune—Frere Jacques

God, our Father

Once again

WE will ask Thy blessing

We will ask Thy blessing

Amen

Amen.

The Window
Mary had a little lamb. Its fleece was white as snow,

And everywhere that Mary went, she threw it out the window, the window, the window, the second story window,

And, if you don’t know your nursery rhymes, we’ll throw you out the window.

The Green Grass Grows All Around

There was a tree, in my back yard, the prettiest tree that you ever did see.

The tree in a hole and the hole in the ground, and the green grass grew all around, all a round, and the green grass grew all around.

And on that tree was a limb, the prettiest limb that you ever did see.

And on that limb there was a branch,

Branch-Twig Twig-Leaf

Leaf-Bug

Swimming Hole

Swimming, swimming in the swimming pool when days are hot when days are cold, in the swimming pool.

Breast stroke, side stroke, fancy diving too, oh don’t you wish you never had anything else to do. But...

Sarah the Whale

Tune-Dixie (verse)

In Frisco town there lived a whale. They fed her peanuts by the pail, and washtubs and bathtubs, and sailboats, and schooners.

Her name is Sarah and she’s a peach. But don’t put food within her reach, or babies, or nursemaids, or chocolate ice-cream sodas.

She loves to smile and when she smiles, you can see her teeth for miles and miles. And her tonsils and her spare ribs, and other things too fierce to mention.

Now what can you do in a case like that? There’s nothing to do but sit on your hat, or your toothbrush, or your best friend. Or anything that’s helpless.

Princess Pat

(tune-The Other Day I Met a Bear)

The Princess Pat, Light infantry

She sailed across the seven seas

She sailed across the channel too

And she took with her a

Ric-a-dam-do

Chorus:

A ric-a-dam-do

Now what is that? It’s somethin’ made

by the Princess Pat. It’s red and gold,

and purple too that’s why it’s called a Ric-a-dam-do

Now Captain Jack, had a mighty fine crew he sailed across the channel too.

His ship did sink, and yours will too.

Unless you take a

Ric-a-dam-do

Pile of Tin

I’m a little pile of tin

Nobody knows what shape I’m in

I’ve got four wheels and a runnin’ board

I’m a four door, I’m a Ford.

Chorus:

Honk, honk, rattle, rattle, rattle, crash, beep, beep

Honk, honk

Got no bottom, got no top,

Throw out the anchor when you want to stop

Got no windows, got no brakes

All I’ve got are small earthquakes

Camel Song

Tramp, tramp, heavily laden camels

Tramp, tramp, camels heavy laden.

Swinging, swaying on the road to Bagdad,

Heavy go the caravans.

Last line sung together

Sippin Cider

Tune-(The Other Day I Met a Bear)

Each verse is sung twice, the first time echoes on each line, the second time yodels the word “cider”.

The cutest boy, I ever saw, was sippin’ cider through a straw. The cutest boy I ever saw was sippin’ c-i-d-e-r through a straw.

I asked him if he’s show me how, to sip some cider through a straw… He said of course, he’d show me how to sip some cider thru a straw.

First cheek to cheek, then jaw to jaw, we sipped that cider through a straw.

And bit by bit that straw did slip, and we sipped cider lip to lip.

That’s how I got, my mother-in-law, and forty-nine kids to call me Ma…The moral of this little tale is don’t sip cider through a straw.

The moral of this little tale is don’t sip ci-de-i-de-ider through a straw. Drink ginger-ale!

Crocodile Song

She sailed away on a bright and sunny day. (Flutter hands)

On the back of a crocodile. (Make crocodile mouth)

“You see,” said she, “he’s as tame as he can be,” (Pat back of hand)

“I’ll ride him down the Nile.” (Flutter fingers)

The croc’ winked his eye as she waved them all goodbye, (Point to wink, wave good-bye)

Wearing a happy smile. (Outline smile)

At the end of the ride, (Look sad and whirl hands)

The lady was inside, (Snap arms like a croc’s mouth)

And the smile was on the crocodile. (Outline smile and make a crocodile mouth).

Strut Miss Lucy

Strut Miss Lucy, Strut Miss Lucy, Strut Miss Lucy all the way home.

Here comes another one, just like the other one.

Strut Miss Lucy, all the way home.

This-a-way Valerie, That-a-way Valerie.

Strut Miss Lucy, all the way home.

Boom-Chick-A-Boom (chant)

I said a boom-chick-a-boom.

I said a boom- a- chick-a-rock-a-chick-a-rock-a-chick-a-boom!

Oh Yeah?

Okay!

One more time….

Alice’s Camel

Alice’s camel has ten humps,

Go, Alice, go. Boom, Boom, Boom.

(Repeat in descending numbers, nine, eight, seven, etc. singing faster than the one before.)

Alice’s camel has no humps. (repeat as above)

Alice’s camel is a horse,

Go, Alice, Go. Boom, Boom, Boom.
