The Happy Wander

I love to go a-wandering Along the mountain track And as I go I love to sing My knapsack on my back. Chorus: Val-la-re Val-la-ra Val-la-re Val-la-ra-ha-ha-ha-ha- Ha-ha Val-la-re Val-la-ra 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 black birds call so loud and sweet From ev’ry green good tree. High over head the sky larks wing They never rest at home Just like me they love to sing As o’er the world we roam

I’m Looking Over my Dead Dog Rover I’m looking over my dead dog Rover Who I overran with the mower One leg is missing, the other is gone One leg is scattered all over the lawn There’s no need explaining The one remaining is hanging by the kitchen door Oh, I’m looking over my dead dog Rover Who I overran with the mower. (repeat verse with the following ending) Oh, I’m looking over my dead dog Rover Who I overlooked, for grass I mistook Who I overran with the mower

Second Story Window

The window, the window, the second story window. If you can’t make a rhyme and sing it on time. Then through it out the window. (sing your favorite Nursery Rhyme like this) Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jumped over the candlestick and through it out the window. Humptie Dumptie sat on the wall. Humptie Dumptie had a great fall. All the King’s horses and all the king’s men through him out the window.

Leg From Some Ol’ Table You take a leg from some old table You take an arm from some old chair You take a neck from some old bottle And from a horse you take some, you take some hair And then you put them all together With some paste and a little bit of glue And I’ll get more loving from that gosh durn dummy than I’d ever get from you.

Little Rabbit Foo Foo

Little Rabbit Foo Foo Hoping through the forest Scooping up the field mice and smashing them on the head Down came the good fairy and she said, “Little Rabbit Foo Foo I don’t want to see you picking up the field mice and smashing them on the head. *I’ll give you three chances and if you don’t stop picking up the field mice and smashing them on the head I’ll turn you into a BIG HARRY GOON!!! So the next day…(follow pattern of first verse two, then on chance.) The moral of this story is: Hare Today Goon Tomorrow

Pass It On

It only takes a spark to get a fire going And soon all those around can warm up to its glowing That’s how it is with God’s love Once you’ve experienced it You spread His love to everyone You want to pass it on. What a wondrous time is spring When all the trees are budding The birds begin to sing The flower start their blooming That’s how it is with God’s love Once you’ve experienced it You want to sing It’s fresh like spring You want to pass it on. I wish for you my friend This happiness that I have found You can depend on Him It matters not where you’re bound I’ll shout it from the mountain top I want my world to know The Lord of love has come to me I want to pass it on.

Shady Grove

Chorus: Shady Grove my little love Shady Grove my darling Shady Grove my little love I’m going back to Ireland The first time I saw Shady Grove, She was standin’ at the door Shoes and stockings in her hand And her little bare feet on the floor. Cheeks as red as rose in spring Eyes of deepest brown You’re the darling of my life Stay till the sun goes down. I wish I had a big white horse And corn to feed him on All I’d need was my Shady Grove To feed him when I’m gone. Shady Grove my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove my little love I’ll marry you some day.

Tell Me Why

Tell me why the stars do shine Tell me why the ivy twines Tell me why the ocean’s blue And I will tell you just why I love you/ Because God made the stars to shine Because God made the ivy twine Because God made the ocean blue Because God made you, that’s why I love you. I do believe that God above Created you for me to love He picked you out from all the rest Because God made you, that’s why I love you.

There’s a Blue Sky

There’s a blue sky way up yonder There’s a blue sky over my head There’s a blue way up yonder That’s a cover for my bed And wherever I wander And wherever I roam There’s a blue sky way up yonder That is calling me home.

Today

Chorus: Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine A million tomorrows shall all pass away Ere I forget all the joy that is mine Today. I’ll be dandy and I’ll be a rover You’ll know who I am by the song that I sing I’ll feast at your table I’ll sleep in you clover Who cares what tomorrow will bring. I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glories. I can’t live on promises winter to spring Today is my moment and now is my story I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing.

Vive L’amour

Let every good fellow now join in a song Vive la compagnie Success to each other and pass it along Vive la compagnie Chorus: Vive la, vive la, vive L’amour Vive la, vive la, vive L’amour Vive l’amour, vive l’amour Vive la compagnie Now wider and wider our circle expands…

I’m Going Lion Hunting I’m going lion hunting I am not afraid! I’ve got my trusty gun And my bullets by my side. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! What do I see? What do I see? I see a big lake. I see a big lake. Can’t get around it. Can’t get around it. Gotta swim through it. C’mon guys, let’s swim! Phew! I see 2. tall trees 3. tall grass 4. a bridge Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! What do I see? What do I see?
