CAMP SONGS

The Little Blue Man
One morning while I was out walking, tho
you'll find it hard to believe,
A little blue man came out of the crowd, and
timidly tugged at my sleeve.
Chorus:
"I wuv you, I wuv you," said the little blue
man, and scared me right out of my wits.
"I wuv you", he loved me said the little blue
man, and scared me right out of my wits.
I hurried back to my apartment, I rushed
in and I closed the door,
But there on the desk stood the little blue
man, who started to tell me once more..
(Chorus)
For weeks after that I was haunted, tho no
one could see him but me,
Right by my side stood the little blue man,
where ever I happened to be.
(Chorus)
One evening in wild desperation, I rushed
to a rooftop in town,
And over the side I pushed the little blue
man, who sang to me on the way down
(Chorus)
I whispered "Thank goodness that’s over",
I smiled as I hurried outside,
But there on the street stood the little blue
man, (sing this part very slowly and sadly) "I don't wuv you any more!"
(Last verse)
So remember if somebody loves you, treat them
honestly, faithful and true
Or the next thing you know it will happen to
you, and you will be heartbroken, too!
HERE WE ARE,
ALTOGETHER
Here we are, altogether
As we sing our song joyfully
Here we are, altogether
As we pray we'll always be.
Join we now as friends, and celebrate
The sisterhood we share, all as one.
Keep the fire burning, kindle it with care
As we all join in and sing.
Catalina (v. 2)
Chorus: Catalina, Madelina, Lupen Steina
Waddle, and a Hogan Logan Bogan was her name.
She had two teeth in her mouth, one pointed
north and the other pointed south.(Chorus)
Her ears stuck out like sails on a boat, Her
adams apple wobbled up and down her throat,(Chorus)
Her feet were flat like a bathroom mat, I
don't know how they got like that,(Chorus)
Her nose was long like a bathroom hose, I
don't know how the rest of it goes!!!
Shorts
(Sung to the tune of "Do Your Ears Hang Low")
Do your shorts hang low
Do they touch below the knee
Can you pull 'em up to here and they still go
down to there
Can you sit cross-legged and still not feel
naked
Do you shorts hang low
Ghost Chickens in the Sky
(tune is Ghost Riders in the Sky)
A Chicken farmer went out one dark and
dreary day.
He rested by the coop as he went along his
way.
When all at once a rotten egg hit him in the
eye.
It was the sight he dreaded: Ghost Chickens
in the Sky!
Chorus:
Bok, Bok, Bok, Bok.
Bok, Bok, Bok, Bok.
Ghost Chickens in the Sky!
The Farmer had raised chickens since he
was 24,
Workin’ for the Colonel for 30 years or more,
Killing all those chickens and sending them
to fry.
Now they want revenge….Ghost Chickens in the
sky.
Chorus
Their feet were black and shiny. Their
eyes were burning red.
They had no meat or feathers. These chickens
all were dead.
They picked the farmer up and he died by the
claw.
They cooked him extra crispy, and ate him
with cole slaw.
Chorus

Cottage in the Wood:
There was a little house in the middle of the
woods,
Little old man at the window stood,
Saw a little rabbit hopping by,
Knocking at the door.
"Help me, help me, help me!" she said,
"'fore the hunter will shoot me dead."
"Come, little rabbit, come with me,
Happy we will be. Tee hee!"

A Man Without a Mormon Girl
A man without a Mormon girl
Is like a ship without a sail
It's like a boat without a rudder
It's like a fish without a tail.
A man without a Mormon girl
Is like a wreck upon the sand
There's only one thing worse in this universe
And that's a Mormon girl - what?
I said a Mormon girl- what?
I said a Mormon girl without a man-
We ought to know!

Chorus:
All I want is a man who is loaded
All I want is a man who is loaded
With money, money
Loaded with money;
Loaded with money, money
Loaded with money.

I don't care if he's no man at all.
(chorus)
I don't care if he's as stiff as a board
I don't care if he's headed to the morgue.
(chorus)
I don't car if he's dumb as an ox,
Just as long as he's got precious rocks.
(chorus)
I don't care if he can't bake a cake
Just as long as he's got what it takes.

ago--I have no idea who originally wrote the music, but the words are from
Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power
of God". I'm not sure how to write the music, C-F-F-G-E-F; F-G-A-B flat-G-A;
highC-C-C-A-F-lowerC-C-F.
I
t's really impressive as the words fade out
over the campfire and softly echo from the mountains.

Chocolate Chip Cookies
They're made outta sugar, butter and flour
You can bake 'em in the oven 'bout a quarter
of an hour
But the thing that gives them, their magical
power,
Are the Chocolate Chips inside
Boom Boom Boom
CHORUS:
Chocolate Cookies
You gotta have more
You can bake 'em in the oven
Or buy them at the store
But whatever you do
Have them waiting at the door,
And I'll love ya till I die

You can't have two
Once ya start a munchin
There's a nothin you can do
So clean off your plate
And eat the crumbs too
And go out and buy some more

And when I die
I don't want wings
A golden halo
Or a harp that sings
Give me a book, a fire,
And someone who will bring me
Chocolate chip cookies all day

I Need a Man
(to the tune of "Part of your World", from
"The Little Mermaid")
Look at my smile; isn't it great?
Wouldn't you think that I'd have a date?
Lookin' at me, yeah, you'd think,
"She's got everything."
Look at my clothes; look at my face.
Just once I'd like to go to a nice place.
Fast-food and dollar matinees-They're not
everything.
I've got hairspray and makeup aplenty;
I've used toothpaste and mouthwash galore.
Wanna go Dutch? I've got a twenty.
But who cares? No big deal; I want more.
I wanna be where the elders are.
I want one for my eternal companion-One who's
not afraid of...
What's that word again? Oh...commitment.
In institute class you don't get too far;
Dates are required for real romancin'.
Hopin' for an engagement...
What's the word again? Ring!
A guy who is fun, a guy who is cute,
A guy who would look real good in a suit.
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I need a man!
What would I give if I could live in Salt
Lake City?
What would I pay to spend a day on temple
grounds?
Betcha they'd call if they weren't all just
so intimidated.
Sweet young maiden-sick of waitin'-
Ready for more!
And ready to know what the couples know.
Ask'em my questions and get some answers.
What is a gentleman and why is he...
What's the word? Extinct!?
Why can't they think and see me now?
I am a woman worth more than eight cows!!
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I NEED A MAN!!

Noble Captain Kirk
(Tune - "Grand Old Duke of York")
The noble Captain Kirk,
He had 500 men.
He beamed them up to the Enterprise,
And he beamed down again.
And when they're up, they're up,
And when they're down, they're down,
And when they're only halfway up,
They're nowhere to be found.

The Bear Song
Leader: Group, echoing:
The other day (The other day)
I saw a bear (I saw a bear)
A great big bear (A great big bear)
A way up there (A way up there)
Everyone:
The other day I saw a bear
A great big bear a way up there
[Continue this pattern throughout the
song.]
I looked at him
He looked at me
I sized up him
He sized up me
He says to me
Why don't you run
I see you ain't
Got any gun
I said to him
That's a good idea
So come on feet
Let's get out of here
And so I ran
Away from there
But right behind
Me was that bear
But ahead of me
There was a tree
A great big tree
Oh, Glory Be!
But the lowest branch
Was ten feet up
I'd have to trust
My luck to jump
And so I jumped
Into the air
But I missed that branch
A way up there
Now don't you fret
Now don't you frown
'Cause I caught that branch
On the way back down
That's all there is
There ain't no more
Unless I meet
That bear once more

Mules
(Tune - "Auld Lang Syne")
On mules we find two legs behind,

We stand behind before we find,
what the two behind be for.
When we're behind the two behind,
we find what these be for;
So stand before the two behind,
and behind the two before

OH, SUSANNA
(Stephen Foster)
I come from Alabama,
With my banjo on my knee;
I'm goin' to Louisiana,
My true love for to see.
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.
Chorus:
Oh, Susanna, oh, don't you cry for me;
I've come from Alabama,
With my banjo on my knee.
Oh, Susanna, oh, don't you cry for me;

I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Susanna A-commin' down the
hill.
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth,
The tear was in her eye;
Says I, I'm commin' from the South;
Susanna, don't you cry.
Chorus

MY BONNIE
Action version: Stand up on the first word
that starts with a "b". Then sit down on the next "b" word and so on. The whole
group should end the song sitting down.

My Bonnie lies over the ocean,
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me.
Variations: instead of doing the action
version, sing this additional verse.
Last night as I lay on my pillow,
Last night as I lay on my bed,
I stuck my feet out of the window,
Next morning my neighbors were dead.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my neighbors to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my neighbors to me.

PINK PAJAMAS
Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic
I wear my pink pajamas in the summer when
it's hot.
I wear my flannel nighties in the winter when
it's not.
And sometimes in the springtime, and
sometimes in the fall,
I jump between the sheets with nothing on at
all.
CHORUS:
Glory, glory, Hallelujah;
Glory, glory, what's it to ya.
Balmy breezes blowing through ya,
With nothing on at all.

They say are mighty fine,
But one rolled off the table
And killed a friend of mine.
Chorus:
Oh, I don't want no more of Girl's Camp
Life!
Gee, Ma I wanna go home.
The staffers that they have here
The say are mighty fine,
The one that teaches swimming
He looks like Frankenstein.
The chicken here at Girl's Camp,
They say is mighty fine,
But once two drumsticks got up,
And started beating time.

HOW GREAT THOU ART
O Lord my God!
When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made.
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, my savior God to Thee,
How great thou art!
How great thou art!
Then sings my soul, my savior God to Thee,
How great thou art!
How great thou art!
When through the woods and forest glades
I wander,
I hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandure
And hear the brook and feel the gentle
breeze;
Chorus
But when I think that God, his Son not
sparing,
Sent him to die, I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin;
Chorus
When Christ shall come, with shout of
acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my
heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, "My God, how great thou
art!"
Chorus

This Land is Your Land
As I went walking, that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below that golden valley.
This land was made for you and me.
This land is your land, this land is my
land.
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream
waters.
This was made for your and me.
I saw a sign that said "No Trespassing."
And on the other side, that sign said
nothing.
And all around me a voice was calling
"That sign was made for you and me."
This land is your land, this land is my
land.
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream
waters.
This was made for your and me.

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?
Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Can you use them for a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you use them for a swatter?
Can you use them for a blotter?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they droop when they're wet?
Do they stiffen when they're dry?
Can you semaphore your neighbor
With a minimum of labor?
Do your ears hang high?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do they flap from side to side?
Do they wave in the breeze
From the slightest little sneeze?
Can you soar above the nation
With a feeling of elation?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do your ears fall off
When you give a great big cough?
Do they lie there on the ground
Orbounce around at every sound?
Can you stick them in your pocket,
Just like little Davey Crocket?
Do your ears fall off

Worms
Nobody likes me,
Everybody hates me!
Iím gonna eat some worms.
Chorus (Repeat after each verse)
Long, slim slimey ones,
Short, fat juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy, wuzzy worms.
First you get a bucket,
Then you get a shovel,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
First you pull the heads off,
Then you suck th guts out.
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Down goes the first one,
Down goes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Up comes the first one,
Up comes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Everybody likes me,
Nobody hates me!
Why did I eat those worms?
Chop up their heads and
Squeeze out their juice,
And throw their tails away.
Nobody knows how I survive
On worms three times a day!

The Titanic
Oh, they built the ship Titanic,
To sail the ocean blue,
And they built her so
The water wouldn't go through.
But the good Lord raised his hand,
Said the ship would never land,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus:
It was sad (so sad)
It was sad (mighty sad)
It was sad when the great ship went down
To the bottom of the sea....
(husbands and wives, little children lost
their lives)
It was sad when the great ship went down.
They were sailing close to England
Not forty miles from shore
When the rich refused to associate with the
poor.
So they sent them down below,
Where they'd be the first to go.
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus
Twas the 14th of April
The fourth month of the year
The Titanic hit an iceberg
That everyone could hear
They suffered and they cried
"Good Lord don't let us die"
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus
They lowered all the lifeboats
To the dark and stormy sea,
As the band was playing
"God Be Close To Me."
The captain tried to wire
But the wires were on fire
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus
Oh the moral of this story,
As you can plainly see,
Is to wear a life preserver
When you go out to sea.
The Titanic once was
But never more shall be,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
Chorus

Baby Bumble Bee

CHORUS:
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You’ll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried
CHORUS
I’ll always love you and make you happy-
If you will only stay the same
But if you leave me to love another
You’ll regret it all someday
CHORUS

Washer Woman
Down in the jungle where nobody goes
There lives a wishy washy woman washing here
clothes.
She says "Ooh Ahh, Goshy Goshy Goo"

There lives a wishy washy woman washing her

Barges
Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea
And the barges too go silently
Chorus:
Barges, I would like to go with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, are there treasures in your hold
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold
Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges flickering light
Starboard shines green and the port is
glowing red
I can see them flickering far ahead
[Chorus]
How my heart longs to sail away with you
As you sail across the ocean blue
But I must sit beside my window dear
And watch you sail away from here
[Chorus]
