top Barges

Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea
And the barges, too, go silently.

Barges, I would like to go with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold.

Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering light
Starboard shines green and
Port is glowing red
You can see them flickering far ahead.

Barges, I would like to go with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?


top California Sea Otter pdf

Diving to the bottom where the food is found
Lying in the kelp bed when the sun goes down
Twisting and turning spinning all around
You know that you're the ocean clown.

California Sea Otter... you're the ocean clown.
California Sea Otter... you're the ocean clown.

And there you are floating on your back
With that rock on your chest
You give that clam a crack.
You spin around, dive back down and then
You're back to your back with a
Whack, smack, snack again.

Night time comes you're fluffing up your fur.
Your pup's on your belly snuggled
Warm and secure
Wrap yourself in kelp and you will be
In the cradle of the rocking sea.

California Sea Otter... you're the ocean clown
California Sea Otter... just foolin' around


top Carol of the Bells pdf
Ukraine

Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, “Throw cares away.”
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold.

Ding dong, ding dong, that is their song
With joyful ring, all caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air.

Oh, how they pound, raising the sound
O’er hill and dale, telling their tale
Gaily they ring, while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here.

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
On, on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home.

(ending: Ding... dong, ding dong...)


top De Colores pdf
Mexico

De colores, de colores
se visten los campos en la primavera.

De colores, de colores
son los pajaritos que vienen de afuera.

De colores, de colores

Y por eso los grandes amores
De muchos colores,
me gustan a mí.

Y por eso los grandes amores
De muchos colores,
me gustan a mí.


top Codfish Ball pdf
by Pollack and Mitchell (listen to Shirley Temple sing)

Come along and follow me
To the bottom of the sea
We'll join in the jamboree
At the Codfish Ball.

Lobsters dancing in a row
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Jellyfish sway to and fro
At the Codfish Ball.

Finnanhaddie leads the eel
Through an Irish Reel.
The catfish is a dancing man,
But he can't can-can
Like the sardine can! (Wait)

Tunas trucking left and right
Minnows mooching, what a night!
There won't be a hook in sight
At the Codfish Ball.

Hello! my honey
Hello! my ragtime gal

top I've Got Rhythm pdf
by George Gershwin
(Lyrics adapted for use with children.)

I've got rhythm. I've got music
I've got my song.
Who could ask for anything more?

I've got daisies in green pastures.
I've got my song.
Who could ask for anything more?

Old man trouble, I don't mind him.
You won't find him 'round my door.

I've got rhythm. I've got music
I've got my song.
Who could ask for anything more?
Who could ask for anything more?


top Jingle Bell Rock jingle

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock,
Jingle bells swing and jingle bell ring.
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun,
Now the jingle hop has begun.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time,
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it’s the right time
To rock the night away.
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh.

Giddy up jingle horse, pick up your feet,
Jingle around the clock.
Mix and mingle in a jingling beat
That’s the jingle bell, that’s the jingle bell,
That’s the jingle bell rock.


top Jingle Bells jingle

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Over the hills we go
laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtail ring
Making spirits bright.
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight. Oh...

Chorus:
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh, Oh...

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh.

A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fannie Bright
was seated by my side.
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
He got into a drifted bank and then we got "upsot!" Oh...

Repeat Chorus


top Jolly Old Saint Nicholas pdf

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,
Lean your ear this way,
Don’t you tell a single soul
What I’m going to say

Christmas Eve is coming soon,
Now you dear old man,
Whisper what you’ll bring to me
Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,
When I’m fast asleep,
Down the chimney, broad and black,
With your pack you’ll creep.

All the stockings you will find,
Hanging in a row,
Mine will be the shortest one,
You’ll be sure to know.

Johnny wants a pair of skates,
Susy wants a sled,
Nellie wants a picture book,
Yellow, blue and red,

Now I think I’ll leave to you,
What to give the rest,
Choose for me dear Santa Claus,
You will know the best.


top My Favorite Things pdf
by Rodgers and Hammerstein (1965)

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
Brown paper packages tied up with strings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels,
Door bells and sleigh bells
and schnitzel with noodles,
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes,
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes,
Silver white winters that melt into springs,
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the dog bites,
When the bee stings,
When I’m feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don’t feel so bad.


top O Hanukahpdf

O Hanukah, O Hanukah,
Come light the menorah,
Let’s have a party,
We’ll all dance the hora,
Gather round the table,
We’ll give you a treat.
Dreidles to play with
And latkes to eat.

And while we... are dancing...
The candles are burning low.
One for each night,
They shed a sweet light,
To remind us of days long ago...

One for each night,
They shed a sweet light,
To remind us of days long ago.


top Octopus' Garden
by the Beatles (1969)

I'd like to be
under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade

He'd let us in.
Knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade.

I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus's garden with me.

I'd like to be
under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade.

We would be warm
below the storm
In our little hide away, beneath the waves.

Resting our head
on the sea bed
In an octopus's garden near a cave.

We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can't be found!

I'd like to be
under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade.


top Ode To Joypdf
(melody from Beethoven's 9th symphony)

Music rings out joyously
In harmony and unity
Offering a gift of love,
A song for all humanity.

A gift of love,
A gift of comfort,
In a world that's full of strife.

Music rings out joyously,
A song for all humanity.


top One Little Candle pdf

One little candle, burning bright,
One little gleam of radiant light,
Shimmering softly in the night
Makes the darkness fade away.

One little song that’s freely sung,
One little bit of good that’s done,
Brightens the world for everyone,
Like a candle’s golden ray.

Keep your light shining bright
Like a torch of hope held high.
Let it glow, let it show,
Keep the flame of love alive.

One little smile for someone new,
One little word of kindness, too,
Kindles the friendship flame anew,
Soon the loneliness is gone.
One little candle flame when shared
Spreads through the darkness everywhere,
Reflecting in hearts of those who care,
And they pass the light along.

Keep your light shining bright
Like a torch of hope held high.
Let it glow, let it show,
Keep the flame of love alive.


top Over the River and Through the Wood pdf

Over the river and through the wood
To Grandmother's house we go.
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through the white and drifted snow.

Over the river and through the wood
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go.

Over the river and through the wood
Trot fast my dappled gray.
Spring over the ground like a hunting hound
For this is Thanksgiving day.

Over the river and through the wood
Now Grandfather's cap I spy.
Hooray for the fun! Is the pudding done?
Hooray for the pumpkin pie!

top Rudolph, the Red-nosed Reindeer pdf

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen.
But do you recall...
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say;
“Rudolph, with your nose so bright,
Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”

Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee.
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer,
You’ll go down in history!

But we'll travel the road, sharin' our load,

What if the sky should fall;
Just as long as we're together,

We'll be the same as we started;
Just travelin' along, singin' a song,

To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed
To turn, turn will be our delight
Till by turning, turning we come round right.

'Tis the gift to be gentle, 'Tis the gift to be fair,
'Tis the gift to wake and Breathe the morning air.
And every day to walk In the path we choose,
'Tis the gift that we pray We may never come to lose.

When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed.

Till by turning, turning we come round right.

'Tis the gift to be loving, 'Tis the best gift of all,
Like a quiet rain, It blesses where it falls,
And if we have the gift. We will truly believe
'Tis better to give Than it is to receive.

When true simplicity is gained,
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed
To turn, turn, will be our delight,
Till by turning, turning we come round right.

top Swimming to the Other Side pdf
©Pat Humphries

Chorus:
We are living 'neath the great Big Dipper
We are washed by the very same rain
We are swimming in the stream together
Some in power and some in pain
We can honor this ground we walk on
Cherishing the beings that we live beside
Loving spirits will live forever
We're all swimming to the other side

I am alive and I am searching
Hungering for answers in my time
I am balanced at the brink of wisdom
I'm impatient to receive a sign
I move forward with my senses open
Imperfection will be my crime
In humility I will listen,
We're all Swimming to the Other Side

Chorus

On this journey through thoughts and feelings
Finding intuition my head, my heart
I am gathering the tools together
I'm preparing to do my part
All of those who have come before me
Band together and be my guide
Loving lessons that I will follow
We're all Swimming to the Other Side

Chorus

When we get there we'll discover
All of the gifts we've been given to share
Have been with us since life's beginning and
We never noticed they were there
We can balance at the brink of wisdom
Never recognizing that we've arrived
Loving spirits will live forever
We're all Swimming to the Other Side

Chorus

Makes winter’s blanket soft and white.

Puddles and rivers on the ground,
Off to oceans I’ve never seen,
Leaves the world so fresh and clean.

top What a Wonderful World

Louis Armstrong

I see trees of green, red roses, too
I see them bloom for me and for you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue, clouds of white,
The bright blessed day and the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, "I love you."

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn more than we'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight

Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, ‘Are you married?’ We'll say, ‘No man
But you can do the job when you're in town’

Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland


top Yellow Submarine
by the Beatles

In the town where I was born,
Lived a man who sailed the seas,
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines.
So we sailed up to the sun,
Till we found a sea of green,
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

Chorus:
We all live in a yellow submarine,
A yellow submarine,
A yellow submarine. (repeat)

And our friends are all on board
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play...

Chorus

And we live our live of ease
Every one of us has all we need
Sky of blue, and sea of green
In our yellow submarine.

Chorus


topYou Are My Sunshine pdf
by Norman Blake (sing along online)

You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are gray.

You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.

Plenty of sunshine heading my way.
Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah, zip-a-dee-ay.

Mr. Bluebird’s on my shoulder.
It’s the truth! It’s actual!
Everything is satisfactual!

Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah, zip-a-dee-ay.
Wonderful feeling, wonderful day.
