SING-ALONG SONGS

Hello, DollyHello, Dolly. Well, hello, D911y.It's so nice to have you back where

you belong.You're looking swell, Dolly, we can tell,

Dolly, .You're still glowing, you're still crowin'You're still going strong.We feel the room swayin', for the

band's playin'One of your old fav'rite songs from

way back when.So take her wrap, feUas,Find her an empty lap, fellas, Dolly'll

never go away,Dolly'll never go away, Dolly'll never go

awayagainl

You make the cotton easy to pick, Marne,You give myoid mint julep a kick, Marne,You came, you saw, you conqueredAnd absolutely nothing is the same.

..Your special fascination'lI prove to be,.inspirational,

We think you're just sensational, Marne.

MameYou coax the blues right out of the

horn, Marne,You charm the husk right off of the

corn, Marne,You've got the banjoes strummin'

and plunkin'Out a tune to beat the band.The whole plantation's hummin'Since you brought Dixie back to Dixieland.

Somewhere Over the RainbowSomewhere Over the Rainbow,

way up high,There's a land that I heard of once

in a lullaby.Somewhere Over the Rainbow, skies

are blue,And the dream s that you dare to dream

really do come true.Someday I'll wish upon a starAnd wake up where the clouds are far

behind me.Where troubles melt like lemon dropsAway beyond the chimney tops

. That's where you'll find me.Somewhere Over the Rainbow,

bluebirds fly. ,Birds fly over the rainbow, why then,

oh why can't I?If tiny little' bluebirds fly,beyond the rainbow,Why, oh why can't I?
