Patsy Orey Orey Aye

    REFRAIN:
    Patsy Orey Orey Aye, Patsy Orey Orey Aye,
    Patsy Orey Orey Aye, Workin on the railroad!

    In eighteen hundred and ninety one, my life on the railroad just begun
    (everybody) My Life on the Railroad just begun, workin on the railroad!

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety two, I found myself with nothing to do
    (everybody) I found myself with nothing to do, workin on the railroad!

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety three, the American railroad hired me..
    (By now, you should know to have the people repeat the last phrase of the
    verse, and conclude with "workin on the railroad" and the refrain)

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety four, I found my back was mighty sore..

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety five, I found myself more dead than alive...

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety six, I dropped a box of dynamite sticks

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety seven, I found myself on the way to heaven...

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety eight, I found myself at the pearly gates...

    REFRAIN

    In eighteen hundred and ninety nine, I found myself at the end of the line...

    REFRAIN

    THEN SING:

    I’ve been working on the railroad, All the live long day.
    I’ve been working on the railroad, Just to pass the time away.
    Can’t you hear the whistle blowing, Rise up so early in the morn’?
    Can’t you hear the captain shouting, “Dinah blow your horn!”

    Dina won’t you blow, Dina won’t you blow,
    Dinah won’t you blow your horn!
    Dina won’t you blow, Dina won’t you blow,
    Dinah won’t you blow your horn!

    Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah.
    Someone’s in the kitchen I know.
    Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah,
    Strumming on the old banjo and singing

    “Fee, fe fiddley eye oh!”
    “Fee, fe fiddley eye oh!”
    “Fee, fe fiddley eye oh! Strumming on the old banjo.”

    Special thanks to Jon Sawicki for suggesting this song.

    Chorus:
        Peanut, peanut butter, jelly
        Peanut, peanut butter, jelly

    First you take the bread and you kneed it, you kneed it,

    Then you slice it, you slice it,
    you slice it, slice it, slice it.

    Chorus

    Then you take the peanuts and you dig ‘em, you dig ‘em,
    you dig ‘em, dig ‘em, dig ‘em;

Pink Pajamas
(Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic)

    I wear my pink pajamas in the summer when it's hot.
    I wear my flannel nighties 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.

    Glory, glory, Hallelujah;
    Glory, glory, what's it to ya?
    Balmy breezes blowing through ya,
    With nothing on at all.

    I wake up in the morning with sheets upon my head,
    My little tootsie wootsies are a hangin’ out of bed,
    Three times out of four times, I am lying on the floor.
    I ain’t gonna drink that milk no more!

Puff The Magic Dragon

    Chorus:
        Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
        And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honalee

    Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
    And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff
    Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
    And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honalee
    Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
    ackie kept a lookout perched on Puff’s gigantic tail
    Noble kings and princes would bow when e’er they came
    Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name

    Chorus

    A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
    Painted wings and giants’ rings make way for other toys
    One grey night it happened - Jackie Paper came no more
    And Puff, that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar
    His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
    Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane
    Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
    So Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave

Scout Vespers

    Softly falls the light of day,
    While our campfires fade away.
    Silently each Scout should ask:
    Have I done my daily task?
    Have I kept my honor bright?
    Can I guiltless sleep tonight?
    Have I done and have I dared,
    Everything to be prepared?

    Listen Lord, O listen Lord,
    As I whisper soft and low.
    Bless my mom and bless my dad,
    There is something they ought to know.
    I will keep my honor bright,
    The oath and law will be my guide.
    Mom and dad this you should know,
    Deep in my heart I love you so.

Scout WETspers

    Softly falls the rain today
    As our campsite floats away

    Learned to swim so I won't drown,
    Have I done, and will I try
    Everything to keep me dry?

The Grand Old Duke Of York

    The Grand Old Duke of York, he had ten thousand men,
    He marched them up a hill and then he marched them down again.
    And when you’re up you’re up, and when you’re down you’re down,
    And when you’re only half way up you’re neither up or down.

The Lumberjack Song

      I never wanted to do this job in the first place!
      I...  I wanted to be...

      A LUMBERJACK!

      (piano vamp)

      Leaping from tree to tree!  As they float down the mighty rivers of
      British Columbia!
      The Larch!
      The Pine!
      The Giant Redwood tree!
      The Sequoia!
      The Little Whopping Rule Tree!
      With my best girl by my side!  We'd sing!  Sing!  Sing!
 

      Oh, I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay,
      I sleep all night and I work all day.

      Mounties:  He's a lumberjack, and he's okay,
                       He sleeps all night and he works all day.

      I cut down trees, I eat my lunch,
      I go to the lava-try.
      On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
      And have buttered scones for tea.

      Mounties: He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch,
                He goes to the lava-try.
                On Wednesdays 'e goes shoppin'
                And has buttered scones for tea.

      I sleep all night and I work all day.

      Mounties:  He's a lumberjack, and he's okay,
                       He sleeps all night and he works all day.

      I like to press wild flowers.
      I put on women's clothing,
      And hang around in bars.

      Mounties: He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps,
                He likes to press wild flowers.
                He puts on women's clothing

      Mounties:  He's a lumberjack, and he's okay,
                       He sleeps all night and he works all day.

      I chop down trees, I wear high heels,
      Suspendies and a bra.
      I wish I'd been a girlie
      Just like my dear papa.

      Mounties: He cuts down trees, he wears high heels
                Suspendies?? and a .... a Bra????
                (spoken, raggedly)  What's this?  Wants to be a *girlie*?  Oh, My!
                And I thought you were so rugged!  Poofter!

      I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay,

The Unicorn Song

    A long time ago when the earth was green
    There was more kinds of animals than you'd ever seen
    They'd run around free while the earth was being born
    But the loveliest of them all was the unicorn

    There was green alligators
    And long necked geese
    Some humpy back camels
    And some chimpanzees
    Some cats and rats and elephants
    but sure as you're born, the loveliest of all was the unicorn

    Now God seen some sinnin'
    And it gave Him a pain
    And He says, "Stand back!  I'm gone to make it rain."
    He says, "Hey, Brother Noah, I'll tell you what to do,
    Build me a floating zoo.

    And take some of them
    Green alligators and long necked geese
    Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
    Some cats and rats and elephants
    But sure as you're born
    Don't you forget my unicorns."

    Old Noah was there to answer the call
    He finished up making the ark
    Just as the rain started falling
    He marched in the animals two by two
    And he called out as they went through,
    "Hey, Lord, I've got your green alligators,
    And long necked geese
    Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
    Some Cats and rats and elephants
    But, Lord, so forlorn, I just can't see no unicorns."

    Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
    Them unicorns were hiding, playing silly games
    Kicking and splashing while the rain was pouring
    Oh them silly unicorns

    There was green alligators and long necked geese
    Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
    And Noah cried, "Close the door cause the rain is pouring
    And we just can't wait for them old unicorns."

    The ark started moving, a drifting with the tides
    Them unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried
    And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
    And that's why you'll never see a unicorn to this very day

    You'll see green alligators and long necked geese
    Some humpy back camels and some chimpanzees
    Some cats and rats and elephants
    But sure as you're born, You're never gonna see no unicorns.

There Was An Old Woman

    1.  There was an old woman
        Who swallowed a fly.
        I don't know why she swallowed that fly.
        Perhaps she'll die.

     2.  There was an old woman
        Who swallowed a spider,
        Who wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her.
        She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
        I don't know why she swallowed that fly.
        Perhaps she'll die.

    3.  There was an old woman
        Who swallowed a bird.
        How absurd! to swallow a bird.
        She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
        Who wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her.
        She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
        I don't know why she swallowed that fly.
        Perhaps she'll die.

    4.  There was an old woman
        Who swallowed a cat.
        Imagine that! to swallow a cat.
        She swallowed the cat to catch the bird.
        She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
        Who wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her.
        She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
        I don't know why she swallowed that fly
        Perhaps she'll die

This Land is Your Land

    Chorus:
        This land is your land, this land is my land,
        From California, to the New Your island,
        From the redwood forest, to the Gulf stream waters,
        This land was made for your and me.

    As I was walking that ribbon of highway,
    I saw above me that endless skyway,
    I saw below me that golden valley,
    This land was made for you and me.

    I roamed and rambled, and I followed my footsteps,
    To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts,
    All around me a voice was sounding,
    This land was made for you and me.

    When he sun came shining, then I was strolling,
    And the wheat fields waving, and the dust clouds rolling,
    As the fog was lifting, a voice was chanting,
    This land was made for you and me.

    I followed your low hills, and I followed your cliff rims,
    Your marble canyons and sunny bright waters,
    This voice came calling as the fog was lifting,
    This land was made for you and me.

    Nobody living, can ever stop me,
    As I go walking down freedom's highway,
    Nobody living can make me turn back.
    This land was made for you and me.

    As I went walking, I saw a sign there,
    And on that sign it said "no trespassing"
    But on the other side, it didn't say nothing,
    This side was made for you and me.

    Why did you jump into the road?
    Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad
    Why did you jump into the road?
    You were so big and green and fat
    But now you're small and red and flat.
    Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad
    Why did you jump into the road?

    Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad
    Why are you lying in the road?
    Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad

    And you were flattened by the tread.

    Arm'dillo Tex, Arm'dillo Tex,

    A ten-ton truck ran up your snout!
    Oh Froggie Fred, Oh Froggie Fred,
    Why do you lie there stone-cold dead?

    Oh Swallow Sam, Oh Swallow Sam,
    What turned your body into jam?

    An eighteen-wheeler made you bleed.

    What turned your body into jam?

    Oh Doggie Spot, Oh Doggie Spot,
    Upon the road you're such a blot.

    Upon the road you're such a blot.

    Oh Bunny Ben, Oh Bunny Ben,
    Why is your body flat and thin?
    Oh Bunny Ben, Oh Bunny Ben,

    Out on the road you quickly jumped,
    You didn't count on getting bumped.
    Oh Bunny Ben, Oh Bunny Ben,
    Why is your body flat and thin?

    Oh Billy Bat, Oh Billy Bat,
    Why are you lying still like that?
    Oh Billy Bat, Oh Billy Bat,
    Why are you lying still like that?
    Along the road you swooped and flapped,
    But a trucker's windshield got you zapped!
    Oh Billy Bat, Oh Billy Bat,
    Why are you lying still like that?

    Oh Turtle Ted, Oh turtle Ted,
    Your shell's all broken - so's your head.
    Oh Turtle Ted, Oh turtle Ted,
    Your shell's all broken - so's your head.
    In the road you thought you'd travel,
    Now you're ground into the gravel.
    Oh Turtle Ted, Oh turtle Ted,
    Your shell's all broken - so's your head.

Tongue Twister Song

    One flea fly flew up the flue, the other flea fly flew down,

    One flea fly flew up the flue, the other flea fly flew down.
    Oh glory, glory how peculiar.

    Chorus:
        Glory, glory how peculiar
        Glory, glory how peculiar
        Glory, glory how peculiar
        While one flea fly flew up the flue, the other flea fly flew down.
