Apples an Bananas
Backwards Song
Lyrics:I like to eat, I like to eat, eight apples and bananas
I like to eat, I like to eat, eight apples and bananas
Well I walked up the door and I opened the stairs
Said my pajamas and I put on my prayers.
Turned off the bed and jumped into the light
All because he kissed me (kiss) goodnight!

"i", "o", "u")
For example:
A lAke tA Ate, A lAke tA Ate, Ate Aapples And bAnAnAs ...
Baby Bumble Bee
I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee
Won't my Mommy be so proud of me?
I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee...
Ouch! It stung me!
I'm squashing up my baby bumble bee
Won't my Mommy be so proud of me?
I'm squashing up my baby bumble bee...
Ew! What a mess!
I'm licking up my baby bumble bee
Won't my Mommy be so proud of me?
I'm licking up my baby bumble bee...
Ugh! I feel sick!
I'm barfing up my baby bumble bee
Won't my Mommy be so proud of me?
I'm barfing up my baby bumble bee...
Oh! Another mess!
I'm mopping up my baby bumble bee
Won't my Mommy be so proud of me?
I'm mopping up my baby bumble bee...
Mommy, aren't you proud of me?
Well, I woke up this morning and I scrambled my shoes
Polished up an egg and I toasted the news
Buttered my tie and took another bite
All because he kissed me (kiss) goodnight!
I powdered my hair and pinned up my nose
I hung up my bath and turned on my clothes
I put out the clock and wound the cat up tight
All because he kissed me (kiss) goodnight!
Billy Boy
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy,
Oh, where have you been, charming Billy?
I have been to seek a wife,
she's the joy of my life,
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother.
Did she ask you to come in, Billy Boy, Billy Boy,
Did she ask you to come in, charming Billy?
Yes, she asked me to come in,
there's a dimple in her chin.
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother.
Can she make a cherry pie, Billy Boy, Billy Boy,
Can she make a cherry pie, charming Billy?
She can make a cherry pie,
quick as a cat can wink an eye,
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother.
How old is she, Billy Boy, Billy Boy,
How old is she, charming Billy?
Three times six and four times seven,
twenty-eight and eleven,
She's a young thing and cannot leave her mother.
Bill Grogan’s Goat

Him by the back (Him by the back)
And tied him to (And tied him to)
A railroad track (A railroad track)
Now, when that train (Now, when that train)
Came into sight (Came into sight)
That goat grew pale (That goat grew pale)
And green with fright (And green with fright)
He heaved a sigh (He heaved a sigh)
As if in pain (As if in pain)
Coughed up those shirts (Coughed up those shirts)
And flagged the train! (And flagged the train!)
Bug Juice
Tune: On Top of Old Smokey
At camp with the family,
They gave us a drink.
We thought it was kool-aid
Because it was pink.
But the drink that they gave us
Would have grossed out a moose.
For the good tasting pink drink,
Was really bug juice.
It looks fresh and fruity,
Like tasty koolaid.
But the bugs that are in it,
Were murdered with Raid.
We drank it by gallons
We drank it by tons.
But then the next morning,
We all had the runs.
Next time you drink bug juice
And a fly drives you mad.
He's just getting even
'Cause you swallowed his dad.
Be Kind To Your Web Footed Friends
Sung to "Stars and Stripes Forever,"
Be kind to your web-footed friends

Be kind to your friends in the swamp
Where the weather is very very damp (domp-rhymes with
swamp)
Now you may think that this is the end
Well it is!

Calamine Lotion
(Sing to the tune of "My Bonnie lies over the ocean")
My body needs calamine lotion
My body's all red you can see.
The flowers I picked for my mommy,
turned out to be poison ivy!
Dont' touch, don't touch, don't touch the leaves of three, of three!
Don't touch, don't touch, don't touch the leaves of three!
The Crawdad Song
You get a line and I'll get a pole, Honey,
You get a line and I'll get a pole, Babe.
You get a line and I'll get a pole,
We'll go fishin' in the crawdad hole,
Honey, Baby mine.
Sittin' on the bank 'til my feet get cold, Honey,
Sittin' on the bank 'til my feet get cold, Babe,
Sittin' on the bank 'til my feet get cold,
Lookin' down that crawdad hole,
Honey, Baby mine.
Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back, Honey,
Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back, Babe,
Yonder comes a man with a sack on his back,
Packin' all the crawdads he can pack,
Honey, Baby mine.
The man fell down and he broke that sack, Honey,
The man fell down and he broke that sack, Babe,
The man fell down and he broke that sack,
See those crawdads backing back,
Honey, Baby mine.
Do Your Ears Hang Low 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 over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Can you use them for a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you use them for a swatter?
Can you use them for a blotter?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they droop when they're wet?
Do they stiffen when they're dry?
Can you semaphore your neighbor
With a minimum of labor?
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 elation?
Do your ears hang wide?
I heard the duck say to the drake, Honey,
I heard the duck say to the drake, Babe,
I heard the duck say to the drake,
There ain't no crawdads in this lake,
Honey, Baby mine.

Down by the Banks of the Hanky Panky
Down in the Meadow
Down by the banks of the hanky panky
Where the bullfrogs jump from bank to banky
With an eep ipe ope oop
Ee-sock-a-diddy and a phbbllllt
(Make ‘raspberry’ noise with tongue)
Plop!
Down in the meadow in a little bitty pool
Swam three little fishies and a mama fishie too
"Swim" said the mama fishie, "Swim if you can"
And they swam and they swam all over the dam
Down By the Old Mill Stream
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
And they swam and they swam all over the dam
Down by the old mill stream
Where I first met you
With your eyes so blue
Dressed in gingham too.
It was there I knew
That I loved you true.
You were sixteen,
The village queen,
Down by the old mill stream.
"Stop" said the mama fishie,
"or you will get lost"
The three little fishies didn't wanna be bossed
The three little fishies went off on a spree
And they swam and they swam right out to the sea
(The first verse is sung "straight", but on the second verse silly
interjections are interspersed throughout. The interjections may
be sung by the ladies between the men's straight lines.)
"Whee!" yelled the little fishies,
"Here's a lot of fun
We'll swim in the sea till the day is done"
They swam and they swam, and it was a lark
Till all of a sudden they saw a shark!
Down by the old (not the new, but the old) mill stream (not the
river, but the stream)
Where I first (not second, but first) met you (not me, but you)
With your eyes (not nose, but eyes) so blue (not purple, but blue)
Dressed in gingham (not plaid, but gingham) too (not three, but
too).
It was there (not here, but there) I knew (not old, but knew)
That I loved (not hated, but loved) you true (not false, but true.)
You were sixteen (not seventeen, but sixteen,)
The village queen (not the king, but the queen,)
Down by the old (not the new, but the old) mill stream (not the
river, but the stream.)

Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Till all of a sudden they saw a shark!
"Help!" cried the little fishies,
"Gee! look at all the whales!"
And quick as they could, they turned on their tails
And back to the pool in the meadow they swam
And they swam and they swam back over the dam
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
And they swam and they swam back over the dam.
Danny Boy
Four Leaf Clover
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
I'm looking over a four leaf clover
That I overlooked before
One leaf is sunshine
The second is rain
Third is the roses that grow in the lane
No need explaining, the one remaining
Is somebody I adore
I'm looking over a four leaf clover
That I overlooked before

Got a stomach ache ...
Called the doctor ...
Operation ...
Died anyway...
Was a dream ...
Then I woke up ...
Found a peanut ...

With nothing on at all.
The Whipper Whopper Song (Eener Meener)
WATALIATCHA
I woke up Sunday morning,
I looked up on the wall,
The bedbugs and the skeeters
Were playing a game of ball.
The score was 2 to nothing,
The skeeters were ahead,
The bedbugs hit a homerun
And knocked me out of bed.
Wataliatcha, wataliatcha, doodley doo, doodley doo.
(Repeat )
The simplest thing, there ain't much to it
All you gotta do is doodley do it
I know the rest, but the part I like the best
Goes doodley doodley doo.
Chorus:
I'm singing - Eeners meener and a miner mo
Catch a Whipper Whopper by the toe,
And if he HOLLERS, HOLLERS, HOLLERS, don’t let
him go.
I'm singing - Eeners meener and a miner mo
My Mother is a German
My Father is a spy,
And I'm the little ding bat,
Who told the FBI.
Chorus:
I made myself a snowball,
As perfect as can be,
I thought I'd keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me.
I have myself a turtle,
His name is Tiny Tim,
I put him in the bathtub,
To see if he could swim.
He drank up all the water,

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

and followed my footsteps
O’er the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
While all around me a voice was sounding, saying
This land was made for you and me

You make me happy, when skies are gray.
