CHORUS:
Alligator, alligator
Can be your friend, can be your friend,
can be your friend too (2x)

An alligator is my friend, he can be your friend too
But what you gotta understand is he has feelings too

CHORUS

An alligator's always green, he never sings the blues
I'd rather wear him on my shirt than have him for my shoes

CHORUS

An alligator ate my friend, he can eat your friend too
But what you gotta understand is he needs dinner too

Alligator, alligator
Can be your friend, can be your friend
can be your friend too

I went to the animal fair
The birds and the bees were there
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair
The monkey fell out of his bunk (CLAP)
And slid down the elephant's trunk, whee!
The elephant sneezed and fell on his knees
But what became of the monkey, monkey, monkey, monkey

(HALF THE GROUP CONTINUES SINGING "MONKEY MONKEY" WHILE THE OTHER HALF REPEATS THE SONG, THEN THEY SWITCH)

The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah (2x)
The ants go marching one by one
The little one stops to suck his thumb
And they all go marching down to the ground
to get out of the rain... boom boom boom

The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah (2x)
The ants go marching two by two
The little one stops to tie his shoe
And they all go marching down to the ground
to get out of the rain... boom boom boom

There must be bananas in the atmosphere

The other day
I met a bear
Up in the woods
A way out there

He looked at me
I looked at him
He sized up me
I sized up him

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

In front of me
There was a tree
A great big tree
Oh lordy me

The nearest branch
Was ten feet up
I had to jump
And trust my luck

And so I jumped
Into the air
But missed that branch
A way up there

Now don't you fret
Now don't you frown
I caught that branch
On the way back down

This is the end
There ain't no more
Unless I meet
That bear once more

The end the end
The end the end
The end the end
The end the end

There was a bee-i-ee-i-ee
Sat on a wall-i-all-i-all
And there it sat-i-at-i-at
And that was all-i-all-i-all
And so that bee-i-ee-i-ee
Began to sting-i-ing-i-ing
And hurt that boy-i-oy-i-oy
Like anything-i-ing-i-ing
And then that bee-i-ee-i-ee
Gave one big cough-i-ough-i-ough
And one last grin-i-in-i-in
Then he buzzed off-i-off-i-off

Way up in the sky
The little birds fly
While down in the nest
The little birds rest

With a wing on the left
And a wing on the right
The little birds sleep
All through the night

SHHHHHHHHH they're sleeping

The bright sun comes up
The dew falls away
"Good morning! Good morning!" the little birds say

"Bad" version

Way up in the sky
The vultures do fly
While down in the nest
The vultures do rest

With a claw on the left
And a claw on the right
The vultures do sleep
All through the night

SHUT UP! They're sleeping!

The bright sun comes up
The dew falls away
"Bad morning! Bad morning!" the vultures do say.

Black socks they never get dirty
The longer you wear them the blacker they get
Sometimes I think I should wash them
But something inside me keeps saying not yet
Not yet, not yet, not yet

(SING LIKE "Madness")

Way down yonder not far off
A bluejay died of a whooping cough
Well he whooped and he whooped and he whooped so hard
That he whooped his head and his tail right off

Up and down the river on the Ohio (2X)

Have you ever seen where the boatman live
In a house in a hollow with a roof like a sieve

If I got any wetter I would be a fish"

CHORUS

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe
With the moon shining all around

You couldn't even hear a sound
So they talked, and they talked

So whatcha gonna do in a little canoe
With the moon shinin' all a
Boats floatin' all a
Boys swimmin' all around

Some like to play croquet
Embroider a crochet
But I like to participate in my own way

The one that goes up and down
And my sweetie in the rear
Says I ride like Paul Revere
On the merry, the merry-go-round

This is the last time!
On the merry, the merry-go-round
I fooled ya that time

The Brownies ate some marmalade,

Blech went the marmalade

Blech went the corned beef

Blech went the lemonade

Out on a windswept desert
Where nature knows no bounds
A buffalo spied his brother
A-lyin' on the ground
Said the buffalo to his brother
"What makes you lie that way?"

Since way last May

CHORUS:
Chocolate chip cookies, you gotta have more
You can bake 'em in the oven or buy 'em at the store
But whatever you do have 'em ready at the door
And they'll love you forever more

Then you put 'em in the oven for about a quarter-hour
But the thing that gives them their magical power
Is the chocolate chips inside

Once you start chewin' there's nothin' you can do
But lick the plate and eat the crumbs too

Way out West where the bad men are
And the only thing to guide them is the evening star
He's the roughest, toughest man by far
He's the ragtime Cowboy Joe

He always sings
Ragtime music to his cattle as he swings
Back and forth in his saddle
On a horse, a pretty good horse
A syncopated gaiter
And there's such a funny meter to the roar of his repeater

How they run (slap knees five times)
When they hear the fella's comin'
'Cause the Western folks all know
Whadda they know?

He's a high-falootin' rootin' tootin'
Son of a gun from Arizona
Ragtime cowboy
Talk about your cowboy
Ragtime Cowboy Joe (clap)

There's a daisy on my toe
It's not alive, it does not grow
It's just a tattoo of a flow'r
So I'd look purty in the shower
It's on the second toe of my left foot
It's got a stem, ain't got no root
Cuz that wouldn't look good
There's a daisy on my toe
My right foot loves my left foot so

One afternoon it was cloudy and gray
And I wanted someone to come out and play
I heard a knock and I opened the door
And there stood the loveliest big dinosaur

We hop-scotched to Africa quick as a breeze
While leap-frogging over the coconut trees
And when we got thirsty, mile after mile
In one great big gulp we just drank up the Nile

CHORUS

We went to church and then we went to school
My dinosaur, gee he really is cool!
I climbed all the way from his tail to his cheek
Without stopping once it took nearly a week!

CHORUS

Well I trucked around the corner
And I trucked around the block
And I trucked right in to a donut shop
And I picked up a donut and I licked off the grease
And I handed the lady a five cent piece.

Well she looked at the nickel and she looked at me
And she said this nickel is no good to me
There's a hole in the middle I can see right through
Said I there's a hole in the donut too!
Thanks for the donut
So long!

Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie 'em in a knot?
Can you tie 'em in a bow?
Can you throw 'em over your shoulder
Like a U.S. Army soldier?
Do your ears hang low?

Do your ears flip flop?
Can you use 'em for a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly on the top?
Can you use 'em for a swatter?
Can you use 'em for a blotter?
Do your ears flip flop?

Dreaming to be, be on the land that I love,

What can make a hippopotamus smile?
What can make him walk for more than a mile?
It's not the sound of an old violin,
It's not the sound of the whistling wind,

They wade in the water 'til their lips turn blue
That's what hippos do!

They wade in the water 'til their lips turn blue
That's what hippos

With a love as big as the sky
A Running Bear loves a White Dove
With a love that will never die

stood a lovely Indian maid
Little white dove was a'her name
such a lovely site to see
But their tribes fought with one another, PING
so their love could never be

CHORUS

Running Bear dove in the water

As they swam out to one another
through the rolling waves they came
First their eyes met, then their lips touched,
then the river pulled them down
Now they'll always be together
in that happy hunting ground

There's a glory in my heart gonna let it ring
Spirit's movin' over this soul of mine
Gonna open up my heart and let the sun shine

And you do a little giving and you pray to the Lord above
That you'll finally find the happiness to set the world ablaze
If you hear the song I'm singin' send a word of praise

There's a glory in my heart gonna let it ring
Spirit's movin' over this soul of mine
Gonna open up my heart and let the sun shine

Doin' the Tennessee wiggle walk

Put your heels together
And your knees apart
Snap your fingers 'cause we're ready to start
'Cause I walk with a wiggle and a squiggle and a squawk
Doin' the Tennessee wiggle walk

Snap your fingers
Tap your heels in time
Never been so happy in a long long time
'Cause I walk with a wiggle and a squiggle and a squawk
Doin' the Tennessee wiggle walk
Doin' the Tennessee wiggle walk
