Grade 3 Concert Lyrics Sheets 6/6/24
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!
2. O, beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years,
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears.
(Refrain)
1. There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow
There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow
The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye
And it looks like it’s climbing clear up to the sky
Oh, what a beautiful mornin’
Oh, what a beautiful day
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way
2. All the cattle are standin’ like statues
All the cattle are standin’ like statues
They don’t turn their heads as they see me ride by
But a little brown maverick is winkin’ her eye
Oh, what a beautiful mornin’
Oh, what a beautiful day
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way
3. All the sounds of the earth are like music
All the sounds of the earth are like music
The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree
And ol' weepin' willer is laughin' at me
Oh, what a beautiful mornin'
Oh, what a beautiful day
I've got a beautiful feelin'
Everything's goin' my way
Oh, what a beautiful day...
Look for the bare necessities,
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities, or Mother Nature's recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants,
Then maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Quarter notes they get one beat
Double up the timing and it's eighth notes that you meet
Half notes get two beats
Whole notes get four beats.
Somewhere There's A Great Adventure
Somewhere there’s a voice inside me crying to be free.
Somewhere there’s a great adventure waiting just for me.
I don’t know where to look,
Can’t find it in a book,
I only wish that I knew.
I’ll know it right away,
Might even come today,
Just know it’s gon-na come true.
Somewhere there’s a voice inside me crying to be free.
Somewhere there’s a great adventure waiting
And it’s waiting for me! (Repeat)
(Second time) Yes, it’s waiting for me!
1. You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch,
You really are a heel,
You’re as cuddly as a cactus,
You’re as charming as an eel,
Mr. Grinch,
You’re a bad banana
With a greasy black peel!
2. You’re a monster, Mr. Grinch,
Your heart’s an empty hole,
Your brain is full of spiders,
You have garlic in your soul,
Mr. Grinch, I wouldn’t touch you with a Thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!
3. You’re a vile one, Mr. Grinch,
You have termites in your smile,
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch,
Given a choice between the two of you
I’d take the seasick crocodile!
4. You’re a rotter, Mr. Grinch,
You’re the king of sinful sots,
Your heart’s a dead tomato
Splotched with moldy purple spots,
Mr. Grinch, you’re a three-decker Sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich
With arsenic sauce!
5. You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch,
With a nauseous super “naus!”,
You’re a crooked dirty jockey and you
Drive a crooked hoss, Mr. Grinch,
Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful
Assortment of rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled up knots!
6. You’re a foul one, Mr. Grinch,
You’re a nasty wasty skunk,
Your heart is full of unwashed socks,
Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch,
The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote,
“Stink, stank, stunk!”
Colors of the Wind
1. You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature has a life, has a spirit, has a name.
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you,
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You’ll learn things you never
Knew you never knew.
2. Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the Blue corn moon,
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the Mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
3. Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest,
come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all
Around you, and for once never wonder
What they’re worth.
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other in a circle, In a hoop that never ends. (repeat verse 2.)
