Daisy Bell A Bicycle Built for Two

1

There is a flowerWithin my heart,

Daisy, Daisy!Planted one day

By a glancing dart,Planted by Daisy Bell!Whether she loves me

Or loves me not,Sometimes it's hard to tell;

Yet I am longing to share the lot -Of beautiful Daisy Bell!

Chorus:Daisy, Daisy,

Give me your answer do!I'm half crazy,

All for the love of you!It won't be a stylish marriage,

I can't afford a carriageBut you'll look sweet upon the seat

Of a bicycle made for two.

We will go tandemAs man and wife,

Daisy, Daisy!'Peddling' away

Down the road of life,I and my Daisy Bell!When the road's darkWe can both despise

P'licemen and lamps as well;

In the dazzling eyesOf beautiful Daisy Bell!

Chorus

Harry Dacre, 1892

Harry Dacre, 1892

I will stand by youIn wheel or woe,

Daisy, Daisy!You'll be the bell(e)

Which I'll ring you know!Sweet little Daisy Bell!

You'll take the 'lead'In each 'trip' we take,

Then if I don't do well,I will permit you to

Use the brake,My beautiful Daisy Bell!

Chorus

There is a flow-erWith-in my heart,Dai-sy, Dai-sy!

Plan-ted one dayBy a glan-cing dart,

Plan-ted by Dai - sy Bell!Whe-ther she loves me

Or loves me not,Some-times it's hard to tell;Yet I am long-ing to share

The lot of beau-ti-ful Dai-sy Bell!

Daisy, Daisy,Give me your ans-wer do!

I'm half cra-zy,All for the love of you!

It won't be a sty-lish mar-riage,I can't af-ford a car-riage,

But you'll look sweet up-on the seatOf a bi-cy-cle made for two.

Git Along Little Doggies

As I was a-walking one morning for pleasureI spied a cowpuncher a-riding along

His hat was throwed back, and his spurs were a-jinglingAnd as he approached, he was singing this song

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along little doggies

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along, little doggiesYou know that Wyoming will be your new home

We mark them and brand them and bob off their tailsWe round up our horses, load up the chuck-wagonAnd then throw the doggies out on the long trail

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along little doggies

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along, little doggiesYou know that Wyoming will be your new home

Some boys go up the long trail for pleasureBut that's where they get it most awfully wrongFor you'll never know the trouble they give us

As we go drivin' them doggies along

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along little doggies

Whoopee ti yi yo, git along, little doggiesYou know that Wyoming will be your new home

I've Been Working On The Railroad

I've been workin' on the railroad,All the live long day.

I've been workin' on the railroad,Just to pass the time away.

Don't you hear the whistle blowing?Rise up so early in the morn.

Don't you hear the captain shouting"Dinah, blow your horn"

Dinah, won't you blow,Dinah, won't you blow,

Dinah, won't you blow your horn?Dinah, won't you blow,Dinah, won't you blow,

Dinah, won't you blow your horn?

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah.Someone's in the kitchen, I know.

Someone's in the kitchen with DinahStrumming on the old banjo.

Fee, fi, fiddle-e-i-o.Fee, fi, fiddle-e-i-o-o-o-o.

Fee, fi, fiddle-e-i-o.Strumming on the old banjo.

Oh, My Darling Clementine

In a cavern, in a canyonExcavating for a mine

Lived a miner forty-ninerAnd his daughter, Clementine

Chorus:Oh, my darling, oh, my darling

Oh, my darling ClementineYou are lost and gone forever

Dear sweet darling, Clementine(or "Dreadful sorry, Clementine")

Light she was and like a fairyAnd her shoes were number nine

Packing boxes without topsesSandals were for Clementine

Chorus

Drove her ducklings to the waterEvery morning just at nine

Hit her foot against a boulderFell into the foaming brine

Chorus

Ruby lips above the waterBlowing bubbles soft and fine

But, because I was not a swimmerI lost my Clementine

Oh, Susanna

I come from AlabamaWith a banjo on my kneeI'm going to Louisiana,My true love for to see.

It rained all night the day I leftThe weather it was dry

The sun so hot, I froze to deathSusanna, don't you cry.

Oh, Susanna,Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from AlabamaWith a banjo on my knee.

I had a dream the other nightWhen everything was still

I thought I saw Susanna dearA-coming down the hill.

The buckwheat cake was in her mouthThe tear was in her eye

Oh, Susanna,Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from AlabamaWith a banjo on my knee.

Waltzing Matilda

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabongUnder the shade of a coolibah tree,

And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Chorus:Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"And he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled,

"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong,Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,

And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag,"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Chorus

Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred,Down came the troopers, one, two, three,

"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?""You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Arabella Miller

Little Arabella Millerfound a woolly caterpillar.

First it crawled up on her mother,then upon her baby brother.

They said, "Arabella Miller!""Take away that caterpillar!"

Little Arabella Millerfound a woolly caterpillar.

First it crawled upon her brother,then upon her dear grandmother.

They said, "Arabella Miller!""How we love your caterpillar."

The caterpillar ate and ateLettuce on a pretty plate.Caterpillar grew so well.Caterpillar grew a shell.

Said little Arabella Miller,"What happened to my Caterpillar?"

In his shell, he grew some more.Bigger changes were in store.

In the shell, some wings did grow.Pretty colors he will show.

Arabella Miller said, "Oh, my!""Look at how that thing can fly."

Caterpillar is no more.Moth or butterfly for sure.

Flew some more to test its wings.Ready now to see new things.

Little Arabella Millerwaved "Good bye." to caterpillar.

Do Your Ears Hang Low

Do your ears hang low?Do they wobble to and fro?Can you tie them in a knot?Can you tie them in a bow?

Do you throw them over your shoulders,like a continental soldier?Do your ears hang low?

Yes my ears hang lowWhen they wobble to and fro

I can tie them in a knotI can tie them in a bow

I can throw them over my shoulderslike a continental soldier

My ears hang low

Yes my ears hang lowYes my ears hang low

I Love the Mountains

I love the mountains.I love the rolling hills.

I love the flowers.I love the daffodils.I love the fireside.

When all the lights are low.

Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.

Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.

We walk together.Hike by the quiet stream.

Watch for the sunrise.Breathing the air so clean.

When we're together,Sharing our fondest dreams.

Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.Boom dee ah dah. Boom dee ah dah.

Make New Friends but Keep the Old

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

A circle is round, it has no end.That's how long, I will be your friend.

A fire burns bright, it warms the heart.We've been friends, from the very start.

You have one hand, I have the other.Put them together, we have each other.

Silver is precious, gold is too.I am precious, and so are you.

You help me, and I'll help youand together we will see it through.

The sky is blue the earth is greenI can help to keep it clean

Across the land, across the seaFriends forever we will always be

Row, Row, Row Your Boat

Row, row, row your boatGently down the stream,

Merrily merrily, merrily, merrilyLife is but a dream

Row, row, row your boatGently down the brook,If you catch a little fishPlease let it off the hook

Row, row, row your boatGently down the creek,If you see a little mouse

Listen to it squeak

Row, row, row your boatGently down the river,

If the river gets you wetDon't forget to shiver

Row, row, row the boatGently to the shore,

If you see a lyin' bearDon't forget to roar

Row, row, row your boatWatch the water flow,

Rowing's fun but rowing's hardThat is what I know

Row, row, row your boatGently down the lake,

Don't stand up and rock the boatThat's a big mistake!

Row, row, row your boatSee the water run,

Rowing here and rowing thereOh we're almost done

Row, row, row your boatGently down the stream,

Ha ha fooled ya allI'm a submarine

Row, row, row your boatGently down the stream,

Merrily merrily, merrily, merrilyLife is but a dream

Repeat chorus

Taps (Day is Done)

Fading light dims the sightAnd a star gems the sky, gleaming bright

From afar drawing nigh,Falls the night.

Day is done, gone the sunFrom the lakes, from the hills, from the sky

All is well, safely rest;God is nigh.

Then goodnight, peaceful night;Till the light of the dawn shineth bright.

God is near, do not fear,Friend, goodnight.
