Slow Songs

Birdie Song/Good Morning Song

Way up in the sky, the little bird’s fly,

While down in their nests the little birds rest,

With a wind on the left and a wing on the right,

The little birds rest all through the night

Shhhhhhhh, they’re sleeping!

The bright sun comes up, the dew falls away

Good Morning, good morning, the little birds say.

Barges

Out of my window, looking in the night

I can see the barges flickering light

Silently flows the water to the sea and the barges too flow silently.

(Chorus)

Barges I would like to go with you

I would like to sail the ocean blue

Barges have you treasure in your hold

Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?

Out of my window, looking in the night

I can see the barges flickering light

Starboard shines green and porters is flashing red

I can see their signals far ahead. (Chorus)

How my heart longs to sail away with you.

I would like to sail the ocean blue.

But I must stay here by my window dear

As I watch them sail away from here.

Watch the Stars

Watch the stars,

See how they run.

Watch the stars,

See how they run.

You know the stars are gonna run,

When the sun goes down.

Watch the stars,

See how they run.

 

Watch the moon, see how it glows.

Watch the wind, see how it blows.

Watch the stars, see how they run.

 

It’s in every one of us

It's in every one of us,

To be wise.

Find your heart,

Open up both your eyes.

We can all know everything,

Without ever knowing why.

It's in every one of us,

By and by. 

Pull Once More

Oh yo heave ho

Oh yo heave ho

Pull once more boys

Pull once more.

Oh yo heave ho

Oh yo heave ho

Pull once more boys

Pull once more.

See the birches drawing nigh

Burly birches drawing nigh

Hi-dada hi-dada hi-dada hi

Pull once more boys

Pull once more

Oh yo heave ho

Oh yo heave ho

Pull once more boys

Pull once more.

 

The Lion Sleeps Tonight

In the jungle, the mighty jungle,

The lion sleeps tonight.

In the jungle, the mighty jungle,

The lion sleeps tonight.

(Chorus)

Ooh-wee-e-e-e-e-um-bum-buway

Ooh-wee-e-e-e-e-um-bum-buway

Near the village, the peaceful village,

The lion sleeps tonight. 

Near the village, the quiet village,

The lion sleeps tonight. 

(Chorus)

Hush my darling, don't fear my darling,

The lion sleeps tonight.

Hush my darling; don't fear my darling,

The lion sleeps tonight.

(Chorus)

DO-RE-ME

Do a deer, a female deer

Re a drop of golden sun

Me a name I call myself

Fa a long long way to run

So a needle pulling thread

La a note to follow so

Ti a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to Do

 

I Want to Eat Apples And Bananas

I want to eat, I want to eat eight apples and bananas

I want to eat, I want to eat eight apples and bananas

(Go through the vowel sounds a-e-I-o-u)

Happiness

Happiness is two kinds of ice cream

Finding your skate key, telling the time

Happiness is learning to whistle

Tying your shoes for the very first time

Happiness is playing the drum in your school band

And happiness is walking hand in hand

Happiness is five different crayons

Knowing a secret, climbing a tree

Happiness is having a sister

Sharing a sandwich, getting along

Happiness is singing together when the day is through

And happiness is those who sing with you

Happiness is morning and evening

Daytime and nighttime too, for happiness is

Anyone, and anything at all that’s loved by you

I love the Mountains

I love the mountains; I love the rolling hills,

I love the flowers, I love the daffodils,

I love the fireside, when all the lights are low,

Boom de ah da, boom de ah da

Boom de ah da, boom de ah da (repeat for a round

 

If all of the Raindrops

If all of the raindrops

Were lemon drops and gumdrops?

Oh what a rain it would be

I’d stand outside with my mouth open wide

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

If all of the raindrops

Were Hershey bars and milk shakes

Oh what a rain it would be

I’d stand outside with my mouth open wide

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Flicker

Flicker of the campfire,

Wind in the pines.

Stars in the heavens,

And a moon that shines.

A place where people gather,

To make friends of all kinds. 

A place where old men’s troubles are always left behind.

So…

Give me the light of the campfire,

Warm and bright.

And give me some friends to sing with,

I'll be here all night.

For love is for  those who find it,

I found mine right here

Just you and me and the campfire,

And the songs we love to hear.

Da-dum, da da da da da da da da-dum

 

Pink PJ’s

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

And I wear my wooly undies in the winter when it’s not

And sometimes in the spring time

And sometimes in the fall

I jump between the sheets with nothing on at all.

That’s the wat they do it in Utah

Arizona and Hawaii

California and Alaska

They jump between the sheets with NOTHING ON AT ALL

 

Simple Song

It’s a simple song, there isn’t much to it

All you got to do is doodly do it

I like the rest but the part I like best

Goes doodly doodly doodly doodly doodly doodly do

Honk Honk

 

You are my sunshine

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

You’ll never know dear, how much I love you

Please don’t take my sunshine away.

Waddly Ahcha

Waddly  ahcha (repeat)

Doodly do (repeat)

Waddly Ahcha (repet)

Doodle do (repeat)
