Amazing Grace (Words by John Newton, Music Traditional)
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds
And drives away his fear
Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for ev'ryone
And there's a cross for me

Do Your Ears Hang Low? (Traditional)
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them o'er your shoulder
Like a Continental Soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they wrinkle when they're wet?
Do they straighten when they're dry?
Can you wave them at your neighbor
With an element of flavor?
Do your ears hang high?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do they flap from side to side?
Do they wave in the breeze
From the slightest little sneeze?
Can you soar above the nation
With a feeling of elevation?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do your ears fall off
When you give a great big cough?
Do they lie there on the ground
Or bounce up at every sound?
Can you stick them in your pocket
Just like Davy Crocket?
Do your ears fall off?
Does your tongue hang down?
Does it flop all around?
Can you tie it in a knot?
Can you tie it in a bow?
Can you throw it o'er your shoulder
Like a Continental Soldier?
Does your tongue hang down?
Does your nose hang low?
Does it wiggle to and fro?
Can you tie it in a knot?
Can you tie it in a bow?
Can you throw it o'er your shoulder
Like a Continental Soldier?
Does your nose hang low?
Do your eyes pop out?
Do they bounce all about?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them o'er your shoulder
Like a Continental Soldier?
Do your eyes pop out?

I Wanna Be a Dog (Barry Polisar)
Oh I wanna be a dog,
I wanna wag my tail
Chase cars, knock over garbage cans
Bite the lady that brings me the mail
Oh I wanna be a dog
I wanna dig big holes
I wanna chase French poodles and basset hounds
And look for telephone poles
Oh I wanna have dog breath
I wanna learn to growl
Scratch fleas and ticks and run after sticks
The moon's gonna make me howl
Oh I wanna be a dog
I wanna big wet nose
I wanna run on the street, get mud on my feet
And put them all over your clothes
Oh I wanna have dog breath
I wanna learn to growl
Scratch fleas and ticks and run after sticks
The moon's gonna make me howl
Oh I wanna be a dog
I wanna lie around
Being human these days is getting a little crazy
I just want to be a hound
Being human these days is getting a little crazy
I just want to be a hound
In My Pocket (Josh Connell)
Oh I bet you can't guess what I've got in my pocket.
I bet you can't guess what I've got.
Oh I bet you'll never guess, oh I know you'll never guess,
So I guess I'll have to tell you what I've got.
I've got keys and a ring for ev'rything,
My lucky rabbit's foot.
A bell and a whistle and a feather and a thistle
And a map of Connecticut.
I've got balls and jacks and a few thumbtacks,
A stick and a paper bag.
Some tapshoe taps and some bottle caps
And a paint encrusted rag.
Oh I bet you can't guess what I've got in my pocket.

Oh I bet you'll never guess, oh I know you'll never guess,
So I guess I'll have to tell you what I've got.
I've got string and a cord and a rope and a board
All tied up in a knot.
Some pieces of metal from a real old kettle
And a pit from an apricot.
Oh why do I carry all this stuff around with me?
It's just that I've become attached to it, you see.
And with all this stuff in my pocket,
There's no need for me to lock it with a key.
So I bet you can't guess what I've got in my pocket.
I bet you can't guess what I've got.
Oh I bet you'll never guess, oh I know you'll never guess,
So I guess I'll have to tell you what I've got.
I've got a bicycle chain and a model airplane
And a bone from an old spare rib.
An umbrella handle and a melted candle
And my baby brother's bib.
I've got piles of sand and a rubber band
And a ruler and a fountain pen.
A jar full of oil, some aluminum foil
Left over from who knows when.
Oh I bet you don't know what I'll do in a minute,
I bet you don't know what I'll do.
Gonna empty out my pockets when we finish up our talk
'Cause with all this stuff, it's really hard to walk.

He goes flip flop, wig wag, zig zag;
I love Rags and he loves me!

On Top of Old Smoky
On top of Old Smoky,
All covered with sand,
I shot my school teacher,
With an old rubber band.
I shot her with pleasure,
I shot her with pride,
For I couldn't miss her,
She was forty feet wide.
She run out and catched me,
Throwed me 'cross her knee,
But in the seat of my britches,
I had my old Geography.
She reached for her ruler,
And took a swipe at me,
She missed old Kentucky,
But she hit Tennessee.
On Top of My Pizza (To the tune of "On Top of Old Smoky")
On top of my pizza
All covered with sauce
Could not find the mushrooms
I think they got lost
I looked in the closet
I looked in the sink
I looked in the cup that
Held my cola drink
I looked in the saucepan
Right under the lid
No matter where I looked
Those mushrooms stayed hid
Next time you make pizza
I知 begging you, please
Do not give me mushrooms
But just plain old cheese
On Top of Spaghetti (Tune: On Top of Old Smokey)
On top of spaghetti
All covered with cheese
I lost my poor meatball
When somebody sneezed.
It rolled on to the table
And down to the floor
And then my poor meatball
Rolled out of the door.
It rolled into the garden
And under a bush
And then my poor meatball
Was nothing but mush.
So when you eat spaghetti
All covered with cheese
Hold on to your meatball
When somebody sneezes.
(Achoo!)
Open, Shut Them
Open, shut them.
Open, shut them.
Give a little clap.
Open, shut them
Put them in your lap.
Creep them, creep them
Slowly creep them
Right up to your chin
Open up your mouth
But do not let them in.
The hand motions are: both hands in front of you, palms facing
away and opening them wide to "open" and close them into
fists on "shut them". Then you clap on "give a little clap", then
fold them and put them in your lap on "put them in your lap".
On creep them creep them, you start at the tummy and make
the fingers crawl up toward the face. On "up to your chin", rest
your hands and start to pull chin down. On "open up your
mouth", open your mouth and, just as it looks like your fingers
are going into your mouth, run your fingers fast down the body.
Peace Like a River (Frey/Cassidy)
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
Peace like a river in my soul
And it flows like a river
And it flows like a river
Flows like a river in my soul
I've got joy like a fountain
I've got joy like a fountain
Joy like a fountain in my soul
And it flows like a fountain
And it flows like a fountain
Flows like a fountain in my soul
I've got love like an ocean
I've got love like an ocean
Love like an ocean in my soul
And it flows like an ocean
And it flows like an ocean
Flows like an ocean in my soul
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
Peace like a river in my soul
And it flows like a river
And it flows like a river
Flows like a river in my soul
Pop Goes the Weasel! (Version 2)
All around the cobbler's bench
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey thought 'twas all in fun
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Johnny's got the whooping cough and
Mary's got the measles
That's the way the money goes
Pop -- goes the weasel!
A penny for a spool of thread
A penny for a needle
That's the way the money goes
Pop -- goes the weasel!
You may try to sew and sew
And never make anything regal
So roll it up and let it go
Pop -- goes the weasel!
A painter would his lover to paint
He stood before the easel
The monkey jumped all over the paint
Pop -- goes the weasel!
When his sweetheart she did laugh
His temper got so lethal
He tore the painting up in half
Pop -- goes the weasel!
My son and I went to the fair
We saw a lot of people
We spent a lot of money there
Pop -- goes the weasel!
I got sick from all the sun
My sonny boy got the measles
Still we had a lot of fun
Pop -- goes the weasel!
I climbed up and down the coast
To find a golden eagle
I climbed the rocks and thought I was close
Pop -- goes the weasel!
But, alas, I lost my way
Saw nothing but a seagull
I tore my pants and killed the day
Pop -- goes the weasel!
I went to the grocery store
I thought a little cheese'll
Be good to catch a mouse on the floor
Pop -- goes the weasel!
But the mouse was very bright
He wasn't a mouse to wheedle
He took the cheese and said "Good night"
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Up and down the City Road
In and out the Eagle
That's the way the money goes
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Half a pound of tuppenny rice
Half a pound of treacle
Mix it up and make it nice
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Every night when I go out
The monkey's on the table
Take a stick and knock it off
Pop -- goes the weasel!
Put some pepper on its nose
And you'll make it sneeze-l
Catch it fast before it snaps --
Pop -- goes the weasel!
A penny for a cotton ball
A penny for a needle
That's the way the money goes
Pop -- goes the weasel!
If you want to buy a pig
Buy a pig with hairs on
Every hair a penny a pair
Pop -- goes the weasel!
All around the cobbler's bench
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey thought 'twas all in fun
Pop -- goes the weasel!
I've no time to wait and sigh
I've no time to tease-l
Kiss me quick -- I'm off -- goodbye!
Pop -- goes the weasel!

The Song That Never Ends (from Lambchop's Play Along)
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people started singing it not knowing what it was
And they'll continue singing it forever just because....
This is the song that never ends...
(Shari Lewis ends it on Lambchop's Play Along
by asking "How do I turn you off?")

Animal Crackers in My Soup
Animal crackers in my soup
Monkeys and rabbits loop da loop
Gosh oh gee but I have fun
Swallowing animals one by one
In every bowl of soup I see
Lions and tigers watching me
I make 'em jump right through a hoop
Those animal crackers in my soup
When I get hold of the big bad wolf
I just push him under to drown
Then I bite him in a million bits
And I gobble him right down
When they're inside me where it's dark
I walk around like Noah's Ark
Stuff my tummy like a goop
With animal crackers in my soup
The Animal Fair (Minstrel Song)
I went to the animal fair,
The birds and the beasts were there,
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair,
The monkey bumped the skunk,
And sat on the elephant's trunk;
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees,
And that was the end of the monk,
The monk, the monk, the monk,
The monk, the monk, the monk.
Arabella Miller
Little Arabella Miller
Found a woolly caterpillar
First it crawled upon her mother
Then upon her little brother
They said, "Arabella Miller,
Take away your caterpillar!"
Arabella did not take it
She decided to forsake it
So it crawled up on the tree
And fell down on you and me
Please, dear Arabella Miller,
Take away your caterpillar!

Bill Grogan's Goat
There was a man (echo each phrase)
Now please take note
There was a man
Who had a goat
He loved that goat
Indeed he did
He loved that goat
Just like a kid. One day that goat
Felt frisk and fine
Ate three red shirts
Right off the line
The man, he grabbed
Him by the back
And tied him to
A railroad track.
Now, when that train
Hove 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!

The Itsy Bitsy (Eensy Weensy) Spider (Version 2) (Iza Trapani)
The itsy bitsy (or eensy weensy) spider
Climbed up the waterspout
Down can the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again
The itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the kitchen wall
Swoosh! went the fan
And made the spider fall
Off went the fan
No longer did it blow
So the itsy bitsy spider
Back up the wall did go
The Itsy Bitsy Spider
Climbed up the yellow pail
In came a mouse
And flicked her with his tail
Down fell the spider
The mouse ran out the door
Then the itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the pail once more
The itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the rocking chair
Up jumped a cat
And knocked her in the air
Down plopped the cat
And when he was asleep
The itsy bitsy spider
Back up the chair did creep
The itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the maple tree
She slipped on some dew
And landed next to me
Out came the sun
And when the tree was dry
The itsy bitsy spider
Gave it one more try
The itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up without a stop
She spun a silky web
Right at the very top
She wove and she spun
And when her web was done
The itsy bitsy spider
Rested in the sun
How Much Is That Doggie in the Window? (Words and Music by Bob Merrill)
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggely tail
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
I do hope that doggie's for sale
I must take a trip to California
And leave my poor sweetheart alone
If he has a dog he won't be lonesome
And he doggie will have a good home
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggely tail
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
I do hope that doggie's for sale
I read in the papers there are robbers
With flashlights that shine in the dark
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark
I don't want a bunny or a kitty,
I don't want a parrot that talks,
I don't want a bowl of little fishies;
He can't take a goldfish for walks.
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggely tail
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
I do hope that doggie's for sale

but shout loudly on the "There goes John..." line)
