!1 Roll Out the Barrel
Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here
Hail, Hail, The Gang’s All Here
Hail, hail, the gang’s all here What the heck do we care, what the heck do we care? Hail, hail, the gang’s all here, What the heck do we care now?
!2 Side by Side Oh, we ain't got a barrel of money Maybe we're ragged and funny But we'll travel along, singin' our song Side by side Don't know what's comin' tomorrow Maybe it's trouble and sorrow But we'll travel the road, sharin' our load Side by side Through all kinds of weather What if the sky should fall Just as long as we're together It doesn't matter at all
!3 The Birds and the Bees Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called 'Love' Let me tell ya 'bout the stars in the sky And a girl and a guy And the way they could kiss On a night like this When I look into your big brown eyes It's so very plain to see That it's time you learned about the facts of life Starting from A to Z Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called 'Love !4 Red, Red Robin When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along, along
There'll be no more sobbin' when he starts throbbin' his old sweet song
Wake up, wake up you sleepy head
Get up, get up, get out of bed
Cheer up, cheer up the sun is red
Live, love, laugh and be happy
What if I were blue, I’d be walking through, walking through fields of flowers
Rain may glisten but still I listen for hours and hours
I'm just a kid again doing what I did again, singing this song
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along
!5 Rockin’ Robin Tweedle-lee-deedle-lee-dee, tweedle-lee-deedle-lee- dee

Verse 2
Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
Flappin' their wings singing go birdy go
Oh rockin' robin, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet
Oh rockin' robin tweet tweet tweet tweet
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
!7 Mockingbird Hill When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses 'round my windowsill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops on Mockin'bird Hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee
There's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers on Mockin'bird Hill
!8 Zip-a-dee-doo-dah Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay My, oh, my, what a wonderful day Plenty of sunshine headin' my way Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay!
Mister Bluebird's on my shoulder It's the truth, it's "actch'll" Everything is "satisfactch'll" Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay Wonderful feeling, wonderful day!
!9 There’s a Bluebird on Your Windowsill
There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry
With every tear you've washed away
All things you've locked inside
You count your joys this lovely day
And you wonder why you cried
!10 White Cliffs of Dover There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see There'll be love and laughter And peace ever after Tomorrow, when the world is free
The shepherd will tend his sheep The valley will bloom again And Jimmy will go to sleep In his own little room again
There'll be bluebirds over The white cliffs of Dover Tomorrow, just you wait and see
!11 Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
there's a land that I’ve heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
and the dreams that you dare to dream really do
come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where
the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops, way above
the chimney tops that's where you'll find me!
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly, birds fly over the rainbow why then oh why can't I?
!12 Snowbird Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean The unborn grass lies waiting For its coat to turn to green The snowbird sings the song he always sings And speaks to me of flowers That will bloom again in spring
When I was young My heart was young then, too Anything that it would tell me That's the thing that I would do But now I feel such emptiness within For the thing that I want most in life's The thing that I can't win
Spread your tiny wings and fly away And take the snow back with you Where it came from on that day The one I love forever is untrue And if I could you know that I would Fly away with you !13 Blackbird Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see All your life You were only waiting for this moment to be free Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of a dark black night
!14 Bye, Bye, Blackbird Pack up all my cares and woe, here I go, singing low,
Bye-bye Blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me, sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye-bye Blackbird.
No one here can love or understand me.
Oh, what hard-luck stories they all hand me.
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, Bye-bye.
!15 Pack Up Your Troubles
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag And smile, smile, smile. While you’ve a lucifer to light your fag, Smile boys, that's the style What's the use of worrying It never was worthwhile So, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag And smile, smile, smile
