Echo: Chorus:
I met a bear The other day
Out in the woods I met a bear
A-way out there Out in the woods
I met a bear A-way out there
He said to me
Why don’t you run?
I see you ain’t
Got any gun
And so I ran
Away from there
But right behind
Me was that bear (Chorus)
Ahead of me
I saw a tree
A great big tree
Oh glory be
The nearest branch
Was 10 feet up
I’d have to jump
And trust my luck (Chorus)
And so I jumped The moral of
Into the air The story is
But I missed that branch Don’t talk to bears
A-way up there In tennis shoes
Now don’t you fret That’s all there is
Now don’t you frown There ain’t no more
Cause I caught that branch So what the heck
On the way back down (Chorus) You singing for?
Black socks, they never get dirty,
The longer you wear them the stronger they get.
Sometimes I think I should wash them,
But something inside me says No, no, not yet.
Not yet, not yet, not yet...

Oh, when I was a little kid I never liked to eat,
Mama’d put things on my plate, I’d dump them on her feet.
But then one day she made this soup, I ate it all in bed.
I asked her what she put in it, and this is what she said:
Chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes,
Monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salamander thighs,
Rabbit rears and camel ears and tasty flat mud pies.
Stir them all together, it’s Mama’s soup surprise!
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 stand high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they droop when they’re wet?
Do they stiffen when they're dry?
Can you wave them at your neighbor, with an element of flavor?
Do your ears stand 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?
Do Your Ears Fall Off?
When You Give a Great Big Cough?
Do They Lie There on the Ground?
Or Bounce Up at Every Sound?
Can You Stick Them in Your Pocket, Just Like Little Davy Crockett?
Do Your Ears Fall Off?
Oh, I ran around the corner and I ran around the block
And I walked right in to a donut shop
Well, I picked up a donut and I wiped off the grease
And I handed the lady a five-cent piece
Oh, she looked at the nickel and she looked at me
And she said, “this money is no good, you see”
“there’s a hole in the middle, and it goes right through”
I said, “there’s a hole in the donut, too”
“Thanks for the donut, bye-bye!”
Refrain:
Down by the bay… Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home… I will not go
For if I do… My mother will say…
“Have you ever seen a goose, kissing a moose?
Down by the bay!”
“Have you ever seen a whale, with a polka-dot tail?
Down by the bay!”
“Have you ever seen a fly, wearing a tie?
Down by the bay!”
“Have you ever seen some llamas, wearing pajamas?
Down by the bay!”
“Have you ever had a time, when you couldn’t make a rhyme?
Down by the bay!”
Five little ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away
Mother Duck said, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack
But only Four little ducks came back… 1, 2, 3, 4
Four / Three / Two
One little duck went out one day,
Over the hill and far away
Mother Duck said, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack
But NONE of the little ducks came back
Sad Mother Duck went out one day,
Over the hill and far away
Mother Duck said, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack
And ALL of the 5 little ducks came back

Oh, in the woods
There was a tree
The prettiest tree
That you ever did see

And on that tree / there was a limb / the prettiest limb / that you ever did see
The limb was on the tree, and the tree was in a hole, and the hole was in the ground, and the green grass grew, all around, all around, and the green grass grew all around
And on that limb / there was a branch…
And on that branch / there was a nest…
And on that nest / there was an egg…
And in that egg / there was a bird…

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
This is a repeat after me song
There’s a Hole, there’s a Hole…

Oh Great Spirit, help me to always speak the truth quietly, to listen with an open mind, and to remember the peace that may be found in silence.
