After the Ball Was Over<\/h1>\n

After the ball was over, after the break of morn,
\nAfter the dancers\u2019 leaving, after the stars are gone;
\nMany a heart is aching, if you could read them all;
\nMany the hopes that have vanished, after the ball.
\nAfter the ball was over, she took out her glass eye,
\nPut her false teeth in the water, hung up her wig to dry;
\nPlaced her false arm on the table, laid her false leg on the chair;
\nAfter the party was over, she was only half there!<\/p>\n

<\/a>All Together Again<\/h1>\n

We\u2019re all together again, we\u2019re here, we\u2019re here,
\nWe\u2019re all together again, we\u2019re here, we\u2019re here.
\nAnd who knows when, we\u2019ll be all together again?
\nSinging all together again, we\u2019re here!

<\/a>Ba, Ba, Boom<\/h1>\n

We break the boys up between the younger and older. The oldest boys sing the ba,ba,ba, boom with deep voices.
\nOn a pad in a forest green
\nba,ba,ba boom
\nCrazy Herman was surveying the scene
\nba,ba,ba boom
\nSaw a farmer truck\u2019n by, a rapping at his door.
\nLike help, like help me please
\nba,ba,ba boom
\nThese\u2019s a farmer go\u2019n to exterminate me

<\/a>Pack 100 is the Best<\/p>\n

This is a nice closing song that could be modified easily with your den or pack number:<\/p>\n

Tune:Tannenbaum<\/p>\n

Pack 100 is the best
\nheads above all the rest
\nleaders, scouts and akelas know
\nboys need guidence, love and show
\nPack 100 is my pack
\nproud am I to be a scout
\npack 100 light my fire
\nburning bright forever<\/p>\n

<\/a>Black Socks<\/h1>\n

Black socks, they never get dirty.
\nThe more that you wear them, the stronger they get.
\nSomeday, I think I will change them;
\nBut something inside me keeps saying not yet, not yet, not yet . . .
\n[Typically sung as a round.]<\/p>\n

<\/a>By the Light of my Scout Flashlight<\/h1>\n

[Tune: By the Light of the Silvery Moon]
\nBy the light of my Scout flashlight,
\nWish I could see, what it was that just bit my knee.
\nBatteries, why-y did you fail me?
\nThe chance is slim, the chance is slight,
\nI can last through the night, with my Scout flashlight.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Each Campfire Lights Anew<\/h1>\n

Each campfire lights anew, the flame of friendship true.
\nThe joy we\u2019ve had in knowing you, will last our whole life through.
\nAnd as the embers die away, we wish that we might always stay.
\nBut since we cannot have our way, we\u2019ll come again some other day.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Great Green Gobs<\/h1>\n

(Tune: Old Gray Mare, except the line in caps which is the melody to \u201cGood Evening Friends\u201d)
\nGreat green gobs
\nOf greasy, grimy, gopher guts,
\nMutilated monkey meat,
\nDirty, little birdie feet!
\nGreat green gobs
\nOf greasy, grimy gopher guts,
\nAnd me without my spoon!

I\u2019m happy when I\u2019m hiking, pack upon my back.
\nI\u2019m happy when I\u2019m hiking, on(off) the beaten track.
\nOut in the open country, that\u2019s the place for me,
\nWith a true Scout friend, to the journey\u2019s end,
\nTen, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty miles a day.

<\/a>Just a Boy and a Girl<\/h1>\n

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe with the moon shining all around.
\nAnd he paddled and he paddled so slow and easy that you couldn\u2019t even hear a sound.
\nAnd they talked and they talked \u2018til the moon grew dim,
\nHe said, \u201cYou better kiss me or get out and swim.\u201d
\nSo, what ya gonna do in a little canoe,
\nWith the moon shining all a . . . , boats floating all a . . ., GIRL swimming all around.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Mules<\/h1>\n

[Tune: Auld Lang Syne]
\nOn mules we find two legs behind, and two we find before;
\nWe stand behind before we find, what the two behind be for.
\nWhen we\u2019re behind the two behind, we find what these be for;
\nSo stand before the two behind, and behind the two before.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Sandwich Song<\/h1>\n

(Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic)

\n\u201cI want a chicken sandwich,
\nCup of coffee, piece of pie.\u201d
\nOh, you will surely hear me

<\/a>The Corporation Muck Cart<\/h1>\n

(Tune; There\u2019s no place like home)
\nThe corporation muck cart was loaded to the brim,
\nThe driver fell in backwards and found he could not swim,
\nHe sank right to the bottom just like a little stone,
\nAnd as he sank he gurgled there\u2019s no place like home.<\/p>\n

<\/a>The Weekend<\/h1>\n

[Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic]
\nI have seen the sky in darkness, I have seen it in the sun,
\nI have felt the rain upon me, I\u2019ve enjoyed the snowy fun.
\nWhen the weather isn\u2019t cloudy or the wind it doesn\u2019t blow.
\nIt isn\u2019t only raining, it\u2019s the weekend too, you know.
\nGlory, glory, it\u2019s the weekend! [Repeat.]
\nI can tell because it\u2019s raining and it\u2019s 42 below,

<\/a>Tell Me Why-silly verses<\/h1>\n

Tell me why the bugs do bite,
\nTell me why the campfire won\u2019t light,
\nTell me why the tent fell down,
\nTell me why we slept on the ground.
\nBecause they\u2019re hungry, the bugs do bite,
\nBecause the wood\u2019s wet, the campfire won\u2019t light,
\nBecause we\u2019re sloppy, the tent fell down,
\nBecause we\u2019re crazy, we slept on the ground.<\/p>\n

<\/a>It\u2019s a Scouting World<\/h1>\n

It\u2019s a world of laughter, a world of tears.
\nIt\u2019s a world of hopes and a world of fears.
\nThere\u2019s so much that we share that it\u2019s time we\u2019re aware
\nIt\u2019s a Scouting world.
\nChorus
\nIt\u2019s a Scouting world for all. [repeat 2 more times.]
\nIt\u2019s a Scouting world.
\nThere is just one moon and a golden sun.
\nAnd Scouting means friendship for everyone.
\nThough the mountains divide and the oceans are wide,
\nIt\u2019s a Scouting world.<\/p>\n

[Tune: Auld Lang Syne]
\nWe\u2019re here for fun right from the start, so drop your dignity;
\nJust laugh and sing with all your heart, and show your loyalty.
\nMay all your troubles be forgot, let this night be the best;
\nJoin in the songs we sing tonight, be happy with the rest.
\nWhenever You Make A Promise (round)
\nWhenever you make a promise, consider well its importance;
\nAnd when made, engrave it upon your heart.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Little Rabbit<\/h1>\n

In a cabin in the woods, little old man by the window stood. Saw a rabbit hopping by, frightened as can be.

\nWhat is a friend? A friend is here indeed.
\nSitting all around me, listening to my need.
\nA friend is always there, a friend will always care.
\nThere\u2019s one important thing that I want you to know,

Now the day is over, night is drawing nigh,

\nBirds and beasts and flowers soon will be asleep.
\nGrant to all the weary, calm and sweet repose,
\nWith the kindest blessing, may our eyelids close.

<\/a>Simple Gifts<\/h1>\n

\u2018Tis a gift to be simple, \u2018tis a gift to be free,
\n\u2018Tis a gift to come down where we ought to be,
\nAnd when we find ourselves in the place just right,
\nWe will live in the valley of love and delight.
\nWhen true simplicity is gained.
\nTo bow and to bend we shall not be ashamed.
\nTo turn and to turn will be our delight,
\n\u2018Til by turning and turning we come round right.
\nThe earth is the Lord\u2019s and the fullness thereof,
\nIts streets, its streams, as well as stars above,
\nSalvation is here where we laugh, where we cry,
\nWhere we seek and love, where we live and die.
\nWhen true liberty is found
\nBy fear and by hate we will no more be bound,
\nIn love and in life we will find a new birth,
\nIn peace and in freedom redeem the earth.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Sunday School<\/h1>\n

Chorus
\nYoung folks, old folks, everybody come,
\nJoin our happy Sunday School, and have a lot of fun,
\nPlease check your chewing gum and raisins at the door,
\nAnd you\u2019ll hear some Bible stories that you\u2019ve never heard before.
\nShadrak, Meshak, and Abednigo
\nWouldn\u2019t obey the king, so they had to go.
\nPut \u2018em in a furnace to burn \u2018em up like chaff,
\nBut their asbestos B.V.D.s gave the king a laugh.
\nThe world was made in six days and finished on the seventh,
\nAccording to the contract it should have been the eleventh;
\nBut the union called a strike and workers wouldn\u2019t work.
\nSo the only thing that they could do was fill it up with dirt.
\nAdam was the first man that ever was invented,
\nHe lived all his life and never was contented;
\nHe was made of clay in the days gone by,
\nAnd hung on a fence in the sun to dry.
\nAdam was a gardener and Eve was his spouse,
\nThey got the sack for stealing fruit and took to keeping house.
\nThey lived a very quiet life and peaceful in the main,
\n\u2018Til Eve had a baby and they started raising Cain.
\nNoah was a mariner who sailed around the sea
\nWith half a dozen relatives and a big menagerie.
\nHe failed the first season when it rained for forty days,
\nFor in that kind of weather no circus ever pays.
\nJoseph was a shepherd, too, he kept his father\u2019s goats,
\nHis father used to dress him in the very loudest coats.
\nHis brothers they got jealous and threw him in a well,
\nJoseph went to heaven and others went to hell.
\nJosua played the trumpet, so runs the ancient rhyme.
\nHe taught the Israelites to play in syncopated time,
\nBut when they played in Jericho, their music raised a frown,
\nSo he set the boys a\u2019swinging, and the walls come tumbling down.
\nPharaoh had a daughter, she had a winsome smile,
\nShe found the infant Moses a-floating in the Nile.
\nShe took him to her father, said \u201cI\u2019ve found him on the shore.\u201d
\nPharaoh winked his eye and said \u201cI\u2019ve heard that tale before.\u201d
\nJonah was an landsman, so runs the Bible tale;
\nHe took a steerage passage on a transatlantic whale;
\nJonah in the belly of the whale felt quite compressed,
\nSo he pushed a little button and the whale did the rest.
\nSamson was a husky guy as everyone should know,
\nHe used to lift five-hundred pounds as strongman on the show,
\nOne week the bill was rotten and the actors had a souse,
\nBut the strongman act of Samson\u2019s, still brought down the house.
\nDavid was a shepherd boy, a plucky little cuss;
\nAlong came Goliath a-looking for a fuss;
\nDavid took a slinky and socked him on the crust,
\nGoliath reeled a couple a times and then he bit the dust.
\nGod made Satan, Satan made sin,
\nGod made a hot place to keep Satan in,
\nSatan didn\u2019t like it so he said he wouldn\u2019t stay,
\nHe\u2019s been acting like the devil ever since that day.
\nDaniel was a prophet, he wouldn\u2019t obey the king,
\nThe king said to Daniel, \u201cThis is a naughty thing.\u201d
\nPut him in a lion\u2019s den with lions down beneath,
\nBut Daniel was an artist so he drew the lions\u2019 teeth.
\nSalomi was a dancer and she danced before the king,
\nShe wiggled and she waggled and she shook most everything.
\nThe king tells Salomi, \u201cWe\u2019ll have no scandal here!\u201d
\n\u201cThe hell we won\u2019t!\u201d Salomi said, and she kicked the chandelier.<\/p>\n

<\/a>There\u2019s One Wide River to Cross<\/h1>\n

Old Noah he build himself an Ark;
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nHe thatched it up with hickory bark,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nChorus
\nThere\u2019s one wide river, and that\u2019s the river of Jordan;
\nThere\u2019s one wide river, one wide river to cross.
\nHe built long, and wide and tall,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nPlenty of room for the large and small,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nHe anchored the ark to a great big rock,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nAnd then he began to load his stock,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in one by one,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nThe elephant munching a caraway bun,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in two by two,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nThe monkey and the kangaroo,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in three by three,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nThe lion and the chimpanzee,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in four by four,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nOld Noah got mad and hollered for more,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in five by five,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nWith wardrobe trunks they did arrive,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in six by six,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nThe leopard laughed at the monkey\u2019s tricks,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross.
\nThe animals came in seven by seven,
\nThere\u2019s one wide river to cross;
\nNow you may think there\u2019s at least eleven
\nBUT THERE AIN\u2019T!<\/p>\n

<\/a>Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight<\/h1>\n

Late last night when we were all in bed,
\nMrs. O\u2019Leary left her lantern in the shed.
\nWell, the cow kicked it over, and this is what they said:
\n\u201cThere\u2019ll be a hot time in the old town tonight!\u201d
\nWhen you hear those bells go ding-a-ling,
\nAll join \u2018round and sweetly you must sing.
\nAnd when the verse is through, in the chorus all join in:
\n\u201cThere\u2019ll be a hot time in the old town tonight!\u201d
\nFor dramatic effect, shout out \u201cFIRE, FIRE, FIRE\u201d at the end of the first verse.
\nSilly variant:
\nTen nights dark when bed we all were in,
\nOld Leary lady hung the shed her lantern in,
\nAnd when the kick cowed it over, she eyed her wink and said
\n\u201cThere\u2019ll be town hot in the time old tonight!\u201d<\/p>\n

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed.
\nSome say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
\nSome say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
\nI say love, it is a flower and you its only seed.
\nIt\u2019s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance.
\nIt\u2019s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance.
\nIt\u2019s the one who won\u2019t be taken who cannot seem to give,
\nAnd the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.
\nWhen the night has been too lonely, and the road has been too long,
\nAnd you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
\nJust remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows,
\nLies the seed that with the sun\u2019s love in the spring becomes the rose.<\/p>\n
