Pack Honors

Songbook

Cub Scouts love to sing. Here are some of our Pack favorites and songs that you will sing if you attend Cub Scout day camp, resident camp or Spook-O-Ree. These are not all the songs we sing, just the ones that seem to be sung the most. Be Prepared, you might be asked to sing one on stage at our next Pack meeting!

The Christmas Song list can be found here.
America the Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!

America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

Do, do, do your best,

DO YOUR BEST. DO YOUR BEST

Grand Old Duke of York
The grand old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up the 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 nor down
(Stand up on up, sit down on down, and stand part way up on half way up.)

God Bless America
God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Through the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home
God bless America, My home sweet home.

Little Bunny Fu-Fu
Little bunny Fu-fu, hoppin' though the forest,
Scoopin' up the field mice and boppin' them on the head.
Along came the good fairy, and she said:
"Little bunny Fu-fu, I don't want to see you
Scoopin' up the field mice and boppin' them on the head.
I'll give you three chances to change your ways, and if you
don't obey, I'll turn you into a goon."

So the next day . . . [Repeat-two more chances . . . ]

So the next day . . . [Repeat-one more chance . . . ]

So the next day . . . [Repeat] "I gave you three chances to change your ways and you didn't obey, so now I'm turning you into goon. Poof! You're a goon. And the moral of this story is . . . 'Hare today and goon tomorrow.'

Little Green Frog
Um Ah, went the little green frog one day
Um Ah, went the little green frog
Um Ah, went the little green frog one day
and his eyes went Um Ah, Um Ah, Um Ah Ah Ah

Honk Honk, went the big Mac truck one day
Squish Squash, went the little green frog
His eyes don't go Um Ah, anymore
'Cause they got licked up by a dog, Woof Woof!



Junior Birdman

Up in the air junior birdman
Up in the air upside down
Up in the air junior birdman
Keep your nose off the ground

When you hear the grand announcement
that your wings are made of tin.
Then you know that Junior Birdman,
has turned his box tops in.

For it takes: 5 box tops,
4 bottle bottoms,
3 coupons,
2 wrappers,
and one thin dime!
Pink Pajamas
I wear my pink pajamas, in the summer when it's hot.
I wear my flannel nighties iIn 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 you?
Balmy breezes blowing through ya,
With nothing on at all.

Squirrely

Squirrely Squirrely,  shake your little tail
    (jump up with arms hi, then turn around and shake)
Squirrely Squirrely,  shake your little tail
    (jump up with arms hi, then turn around and shake)
Scrunch up your toes and shove them in your nose
    (grab your foot and act like you are going to shove it in your nose)
Squirrely Squirrely,  shake your little tail
    (jump up with arms hi, then turn around and shake)

Vespers
Softly falls the light of day, as our campfire fades 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 dare, everything to be prepared?

Way Up In the Sky

Way up in the sky
the big birds fly
while down in the nest,
the little birds rest.

With a wing on the right
And a wing on the left
SHHH!!
Be quiet they're sleeping (whisper)

The bright sun comes up, (Loud and Proud)
the dew falls away,
"Good morning, good morning!"
the little birdies say.

Not songs, but just as important are the prayers that we offer up. Here are a few Scouting favorites.

Philmont Grace
For food, for raiment
For life, for opportunity
For friendship and fellowship
We thank thee, O Lord

Living Circle
And now, may the greatest Cubmaster of all times, be with us, until we meet again.
