The Ash Grove Down Yonder Green Valley Where Streamlet Meander

The Ash Grove

Down yonder green valley where streamlet meander, When twilight is fading I pensively rove, Or at the bright noontide in solitude wander Amid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove. It’s there that the blackbird is cheerfully singing Each warbler enchants with his notes from the tree. Ah, then little think I of sorrow or sadness The ash grove entrancing spells beauty for me.

I’m a Nut Song

I’m a nut that’s big and round, Lying on the cold, cold ground. People come and stomp on me, That is why I’m cracked, you see.

Chorus: I’m a nut (clap, clap), I’m a nut (clap, clap), I’m a nut, I’m a nut, I’m a nut (clap, clap).

Called myself on the telephone, Just to see if I was home. Asked myself out on a date; Picked me up at half past eight. CHORUS

Took myself to the picture show, Sat right down in the very third row. Wrapped my arms around my waist, Got so fresh, I slapped my face. CHORUS

Birdie, birdie in the sky, Dropped some whitewash in my eye. I’m a big girl, I won’t cry, Just as long as you know why. CHORUS

Coca Cola went to town, Pepsi Cola shot him down. Dr. Pepper fixed him up, Now he looks like 7-Up. CHORUS

Bug Juice Song (Tune: On Top of Old Smokey)

At camp with the Girl Scouts They gave us a drink. We thought it was Kool-Aid Because it was pink.

But the thing that they told us Would gross out a moose, For the good-tasting pink drink Was really bug juice.

It looks fresh and fruity Like tasty Kool-Aid. But the bugs that are in it Were murdered with Raid.

We drank it by gallons, We drank it by tons, But then the next morning, We all had the runs.

Next time you drink bug juice And a fly drives you mad, He’s just getting even ‘Cause you swallowed his dad.

Do as many nursery rhymes as anyone can remember. More fun to sing in a large group where one half of the group sings and verse and then it’s the other half’s turn. No nursery rhyme can be repeated which makes it into a contest because each group has to think quickly.

Can also sing (instead of Humpty-dump): And threw it out the window, the window, The second story window, Give me a rhyme and I’ll sing it in time And throw it out the window.

Moose Song

There was a great big moose. (There was a great big moose.) Who liked to drink a lot of juice (Who liked to drink a lot of juice) There was a great big moose. (There was a great big moose.) Who liked to drink a lot of juice (Who liked to drink a lot of juice)

CHORUS: Singing way-oh, way-oh (Singing way-oh, way-oh!) Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh (Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh) Way-oh, way-oh (Way-oh, Way-oh) Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh (Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh)

The moose’s name was Fred……. He like to drink his juice in bed.

He drank his juice with care……. But he spilled some in his hair.

All his hair went stiff……. So he combed it in a quaff (coif)

His friends began to laugh……. So he had to take a bath

As the water went down……. Fred the moose began to drown Chorus this time ONLY: Singing glug-glug-glug-glug-glug, etc.

Now let’s all count to five……. Fred the moose is back alive

Singing way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, etc.

My Bonnie Note: Every time a word with the letter “B” is sung, bend your knees and stand up straight alternatively.

My Bonnie lies over the ocean, My Bonnie lies over the sea. My Bonnie lies over the ocean, Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Chorus: Bring back, bring back, Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me, to me. Bring back, bring back, Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Last night as I lay on my pillow, Last night as I lay on my bed, I stuck my feet out of the window, Next morning my neighbors were dead.

Chorus: Bring back, bring back, bring back My neighbors to me, to me Bring back, bring back, bring back My neighbors to me.

My breakfast lies over the ocean, My luncheon lies over the rail. My supper lies in great commotion, Will someone please bring me a pail?

Chorus: Please bring, please bring, please bring A pail to me, to me. Please bring, please bring, please bring A pail to me.

Sarasponda

Sarasponda, Sarasponda, Sarasponda, ret set set. Sarasponda, Sarasponda, Sarasponda, ret set set. Ah doray oh, ah doray boom day oh, Ah doray boom day ret set set Ah say ah say oh.

Sara’s Honda, Sara’s Honda, Sara’s Honda goes put put, Sara’s Honda, Sara’s Honda, Sara’s Honda goes put put, An Oreo, a chocolate Oreo, I love the creamy filling in a chocolate Oreo.

On My Honor

CHORUS: On my honor, I will try, there’s a duty to be done and aye say I. There’s a reason here for a reason above. My honor is to try and my duty is to love.

People don’t need to know my name, if I’ve done any harm, then I’m to blame. If I’ve helped someone, then I’ve helped me; and I’ve opened up my eyes to see. I’ve tucked away a song or two, if you’re feeling low, there’s one for you. If you need a friend, then I will come, and there’s plenty more where I come from. CHORUS

Come with me where a fire burns bright, we can even see better than by candlelight. And we’ll find more meaning in a campfire’s glow, than we’d ever learn in a year or so. We’ve made a promise to always keep, and we’ll pray softly falls before we sleep. We’ll be Girl Scouts together and when we’re gone, We’ll still be together and singing this song. CHORUS

On Top of Spaghetti

On top of spaghetti, all covered with cheese, I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed. It rolled off the table and on to the floor And then my poor meatball rolled out of the door. It rolled in the garden and under a bush And then my poor meatball was nothing but mush. The mush was as tasty as tasty could be And early next summer, it grew into a tree. The tree was all covered with beautiful balls. It grew lovely meatballs and tomato sauce. So when you eat spaghetti all covered with cheese, Hold onto your meatball and don’t ever sneeze. AH CHOO!

ROUNDS

Black Socks Black socks, they never get dirty, The longer you wear them the blacker they get. Someday I think I should wash them but something keeps telling me Don’t do it yet…not yet…not yet…

Music Alone Shall Live All things shall perish from under the sky. Music alone shall live. Music alone shall live. Music alone shall live, never to die.

White Coral Bells White coral bells upon a slender stalk, Lilies of the valley deck my garden walk.

Oh, don’t you wish that you could hear them ring? That will happen only when the fairies sing.

Whene’er You Make a Promise Whene’er you make a promise, Consider well it’s importance. Then when made, Engrave it upon your heart.

Make New Friends Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold.

A circle’s round, it has no end. That’s how long I want to be your friend.

I have a hand and you have another. Put them together and we have each other.

FOUR SONG ROUND

Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose, Will I ever see thee wed? I will marry at thy will, sire, At thy will.

Ding dong, ding dong, Wedding bells on an April morn, Carve your name on a moss-covered stone, On a moss-covered stone.

Hey, Ho, Nobody Home Hey, Ho, nobody home, Meat nor drink nor money have I none, Yet will I be merry Hey, ho.

Chairs to Mend Mackerel, fresh mackerel, Chairs to mend, old chairs to mend, Any old rags? Any old rags?

Ah, Poor Bird Ah, poor bird, Take they flight, High above the sorrows Of this sad night.

I’ve Got the Girl Scout Spirit I’ve got the Girl Scout spirit Up in my head (where?) Up in my head (where?) Up in my head. I’ve got the Girl Scout spirit Up in my head Up in my head to stay.

2. Deep in my heart. 3. Down in my feet 4. All over me

The Hippopotamus Song What can make a hippopotamus smile? What can make him walk for more than a mile? It’s not a party with paper hats Or cake and candy that make him fat. That’s not what hippos do.

That’s what makes a hippopotamus, That’s what makes a hippopotamus, That’s what makes a hippopotamus, SMILE! What can make a hippopotamus smile? What can make him walk for more than a mile? It’s not a tune on the old violin Or listening to the whistling wind. That’s not what hippos do. CHORUS
