Glad to Have a Friend Like You
By: C. Hall
Verse One
Jill told Bill that it was lots of fun to cook.
Bill told Jill that she could bait a real fish-hook.
So they made oo-ey goo-ey chocolate cake
sticky licky sugar top
and they gobbled it and giggled.
And they sat by the river and they fished
in the water and they talked as
The squirmy wormied wiggled.
Refrain
Singin’ Glad to have a friend like you,
fair, and fun, and skippin’ free.
Glad to have a friend like you,
and glad to just be me.
Verse Two
Peg told Greg she liked to make things out of chairs.
Greg told Peg sometimes he still hugged teddy bears.
So they sneaked in the living room and
Piled all the pillows up and
Made it a rocket ship to fly in.
And the bears were their girls and boys
and they were the astronauts
who lived on the moon with one pet lion.
Heigh-Ho
Words by L. Morey, Music by F. Chiurchill
“Heigh – ho, heigh – ho”, to make your troubles go,
Just keep on singing all day long, “Heigh – ho,
heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho”
For if you’re feeling low,
You positively can’t go wrong with a
“heigh, heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho”
It’s home from work we go,
(whistle or hum) “Heigh – ho,
heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho, heigh – ho”
All seven in a row (whistle or hum)
With a “Heigh, heigh – ho” !
Lucy Locket
Traditional
Lucy Locket lost her pocket,
Kitty Fisher found it.
Not a penny was there in it,
Only ribbon ‘round it.
Star Festival
By K. Shimofusa, English words by M. Shamrock
In the sky the stars twinke bright; Bamboo rustling in the night.
Glittering sparks of silver and gold high above us we behold.
Choose your fondest wishes to write on the strips of paper bright.
Then tie your wishes high on the tree, stars will grant them, you will see.
