The More We Get Together

The more we get together, 
Together, together, 
The more we get together, 
The happier we'll be.

For your friends are my friends, 
And my friends are your friends.
The more we get together, 
The happier we'll be!

Skip To My Lou

Lost my partner! What'll I do?
Lost my partner! What'll I do?
Lost my partner! What'll I do?
Skip to my Lou, my darling.

Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou!
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou!
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou!
Skip to my Lou, my darling.

I'll get another, a better one too!

Skip to my Lou, my darling.

Skip to my Lou, my darling.


Everywhere We Go

Everywhere we go
People stop and ask us
Who we are
Where we come from
So we tell them
We're from (the place you come from)
Mighty mighty (the place you come from)
If they can't hear us
We shout as loud as we can.

(singing louder and louder)


A Tisket, a Tasket

A-tisket, a-tasket, a green and yellow basket. 
I wrote a letter to my love and on the way I dropped it. 
I dropped it, I dropped it, and on the way I dropped it. 
A little boy picked it up and put it in his pocket. 

A-tisket, a-tasket, a green and yellow basket. 
I wrote a letter to my love and on the way I dropped it. 
I dropped it, I dropped it, and on the way I dropped it. 
A little girl picked it up and put it in her pocket.

London Bridge is Falling Down


London Bridge is falling down, 
Falling down, falling down. 
London Bridge is falling down, 
My fair lady!

Build it up with iron bars,
Iron bars, iron bars.

Iron bars will bend and break, 
Bend and break, bend and break.

The Grand Old Duke of York


Oh, The grand old Duke of York,
He had ten thousand men;
He marched them up to the top of the hill,
And he marched them down again.

And when they were up, they were up,
And when they were down, they were down,
And when they were only half-way up,
They were neither up nor down.


Oh, Susanna


I come from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee,
I'm going to Louisiana there
My true love for to see.

Oh, Susanna,
Oh, don't you cry for me,
For I come from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee.


Jack and Jill

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.


Did you ever see a lassie?

Did you ever see a lassie
A lassie, a lassie
Did you ever see a lassie
Go this way and that?
Go this way and that way
Go this way and that way
Did you ever see a lassie
Go this way and that?

Did you ever see a laddie
A laddie, a laddie
Did you ever see a laddie
Go this way and that?
Go this way and that way
Go this way and that way
Did you ever see a laddie
Go this way and that?


Simple Simon

Simple Simon met a pie man going to the fair. 
Said Simple Simon to the pie man, 
"Let me taste your ware." 

Says the man to Simple Simon, 
"Do you mean to pay?" 
Says Simon, "Yes, of course I do," 
And then he ran away.

The Farmer Plants the Seeds

The farmer plants the seeds, 
[Stoop and pretend to plant seeds.]
The farmer plants the seeds
Hi, Ho, the dairy-o,
The farmer plants the seeds.

The sun comes out to shine 
[Make a large circle with arms.] 
The sun comes out to shine
Hi- Ho the dairy-O
The sun comes out to shine

The rain begins to fall 
[Hands flutter up and down.]
The rain begins to fall
Hi Ho the dairy-O
The rain begins to fall

The seeds begin to grow 
The seeds begin to grow
[Stand up slowly.]
Hi Ho the dairy-O
The seeds begin to grow

The vegetables are here
The vegetables are here
Hi ho the dairy-O
The vegetables are here

The farmer digs them up
The farmer digs them up
Hi ho the dairy-O
The farmer digs them up

Now, it's time to eat
Now it's time to eat
Hi Ho the dairy-O
Now it's time to eat

Oats, Peas, Beans and Barley Grow


Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
Do you, or I, or anyone know
How oats, peas, beans, and barley grow?

First the farmer plants the seed
Stands up tall and takes his ease
Stamps his feet and claps his hands
And turns around to view the land.
