Do your ears hang low

March 22nd, 2013

Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie’em in a knot?
Can you tie’em in a bow?
Can you throw’em o’er your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Can your ears stand high?
Can they stand up in the sky?
Can they stand up if they’re wet?
Can they stand up if they’re dry?
Can you wave them to your neighbor
With a minimum of labor?
Can your ears stand high?
Repeat first verse
Have you ever struggled to ask your children to practice the piano every day with Piano teacher Richmond or have you ever heard They said, “I do not want to go to piano class?” This is the most common yet most neglected that teachers and parents face today’s problems.

Old Dan Tucke

March 22nd, 2013

I come to town the other night.
Heard the noise and I saw the fight.
The watchman was a-runnin’ roun’
Cryin’ Old Dan tucker’s come to town.
So get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You’re too late to stay for supper.
Supper’s over and breakfast’s cookin’
Old Dan Tucker, standin’ there lookin’
Well, Old Dan, he went down to the mill.
to get some meal to put in his swill
The miller swore by the point of his knife.
He never seen such a man in his life.
Old Dan Tucker’s scared a skunk
The he fell in the fire, and he kicked up a chunk
A red-hot Coal rolled in his shoe.
And my, oh, my, how the ashes flew.
Old Dan Tucker was a mighty man.
Washed his face in a frying pan.
combed his hair with a wagon wheel
and dired with a tootheache in his heel.

Oh Susanna

February 6th, 2013

I came from Alabama,
With my banjo on my knee,
I’m going to Louisiana,
My true love for to see.

Oh,Susanna,
Oh, don’t you cry for me.
For I came from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee.
It rained all night the day I left,
The weather it was dry,
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Susanna, don’t you cry.

Oh,Susanna,
Oh, don’t you cry for me.
For I came from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee.

Dear Mummy – Lyrics

January 25th, 2013

Dear Mummy,

Oh, why did you send me here ,  Mummy?

It was so much better at home ,  Mummy

You have to do lessons all day,  Mummy

And you hardly get any TV

Oh,  and the other kids hate me ,  Mummy

And the teachers don’t want me to talk,  Mummy

I’ve got hours and hours of homework,  Mummy

That I really don’t want to do

Oh,  and the food is so awful ,  Mummy

I have to eat all of my vegetables,  Mummy

And I only get yucky deserts,  Mummy

And the tuck shop has got a long queue

Oh,  and it’s lights out at eight ,  Mummy

And I can’t have evening hot chocolate,  Mummy

I wrote till my finger had a lump on it ,  Mummy

And my pillow’s got a lump in it too

Oh,  and the cross country’s terrible ,  Mummy

I’m not even allowed to walk it ,  Mummy

I have to go out when It’s rainy, Mummy

And get freezing cold and wet through

So why can’t I come back home ,  Mummy?

The teachers want me to go too,  Mummy

And I’d be a really good girl ,  Mummy

At least,  for a day or two

With Apologies to Mother Goose

January 17th, 2013

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.

Then he had a terrible fall.

An’all the king’s horses an’all the king’s men had

Scrambled eggs for breakfast again!

But oh, no no, don’t say I told you.

Don’t go quotin’ me’ cause if you do, OI Mother Goose.

Will be awful mad at me.

Hey little Boy Blue come blow your horn.

The sheep’s in the meadow and the cow’s in the corn.

Now where is that boy that watches the sheep?

He’s out pickin’ flowers with little Bo peep!

Little Miss Muffet, she sat on a fuffet.

That’s kind of hard to do.

Cause I looked it up and there’s no such word.

I think that’s strange, don’t you?

But if she finds out what I said, I ask you, please.

Kindly send along my apologies to Mother Goose!

Little Red Hen – nursery rhyme lyrics

January 9th, 2013

There was a little red hen
that lived on a farm
All day long she walked around the barn
She was searching and scratching
for something to eat
One day she found eight grains of wheat
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

She was just about to gobble it up
When all of the sudden she stopped abrupt
A good idea came into her head
I’ll turn this wheat into a loaf of bread
But who is going to help me plant the wheat
But who is going to help me plant the wheat
But who is going to help me plant the wheat

I guess I’ll have to ask
all the friends that I meet
Duck would you help me
plant the wheat?
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Not I said the duck,
I must go for a swim
But there is a dog,
why don’t you ask him

Not I said the dog,
I must look for my bone
But there is a pig, he’s all alone
Not I said the pig,
I must rest in the mud
But there is a cat,
why don’t you give her a buzz?

Not I said the cat, I must sleep in the sun
But if she does it herself
she’ll have all the fun
Who’s going to help me plant the wheat?
I guess I have to do it by myself
And she did!

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

January 2nd, 2013

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
When the blazing sun is gone
When he nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night
Then the traveller in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark
He could not see which way to go
If you did not twinkle so
In the dark blue sky you keep
And often through my curtains peep
For you never shut your eye
Till the sun is in the sky
As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveller in the dark
Though I know not what you are
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
How I wonder what you are

la isla bonita – nursery rhyme lyrics

December 21st, 2012

last night I dreamt of san pedro
Just like I’d never gone, I knew the song
A young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, not far away

Tropical the island breeze
All of nature, wild and free
This is where I long to be
la isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
You spanish lullaby

I fell in love with san pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
te dijo te amo
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature, wild and free
This is where i long to be
la isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
You spanish lullaby

Never Let You Go – nursery rhyme lyrics

December 13th, 2012

The rain, just never seems to bring
the joy, I feel the same
everlasting pain of my loss remains
My heart, can’t seem to learn to part
the hold you left the mark
all that I dreamed of now it seems so stark
Tho I told myself won’t hold my breath
a part of me was dying
there is nothing left for me to do now, but give in
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would sing to you and tell you I won’t live my life without you
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would hold your hand and look in your eyes and ya know,
I’d never let you go
The way, you left me on the train
I don’t know what to say
I remember everything on that day
I can’t believe we’d never dance
I just need one more chance
to share the sunset our one last romance
Tho I told myself won’t hold my breath
a part of me was dying
there is nothing left for me to do now, but give in
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would sing to you and tell you I won't live my life without you
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would hold your hand and look in your eyes and ya know,
I’d never let you go
10. Never let you go
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would sing to you and tell you I won't live my life without you
If you gave me, one more chance to tell you how i was feeling
I would hold your hand and look in your eyes and ya know,
I’d never let you go
