Chica- Boom
I said a-boom chica-boom! (Echo)
I said a-boom chica-boom! (Echo)
I said a-boom chica-rocka, chicka- rocka, chicka-boom!
(Echo)
Oh yeah! (Echo)
Uh, huh! (Echo)
One more time! (Echo)
Do it… Louder, softer, Elvis-style, Italiano style, Valley girl style
Astronaut style (zoom chick-a zoom, take a rocket to the
moon),

Underwater style, Etc.
I Love the Mountains
(Sung in Around)
I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills,
I love the fountains, I love the daffodils,
I love the fireside, - when the lights are low.
Boom de ah da, boom de ah da, Boom de ah da, boom de ay.
Boom de ah da, boom de ah da, Boom de ah da, boom de ay.
(third time singing the song) Boom, boom, boom
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?
Yes, my ears hang low
God Be With You Till We Meet
Again
God be with you till we meet again; By his counsels guide,
uphold you;
With his sheep securely fold you. God be with you till we
meet again.
(chorus) Till we meet, till we meet, Till we meet at Jesus’ feet,
Till we meet, tille we meet, God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again; When life’s perils thick
confound you,
Put his arms unfailing round you, God be with you till we meet
again.
(chorus)
God be with you till we meet again; Keep love’s banner
floating o’er you;
Smite death’s threatening wave before you. God be with you
till we meet again. (chorus)
Why should we mourn or think our lot is hard? ‘Tis not so;
all is right. Why should we think to earn a great reward If
we now shun the fight?
Gird up you loins; fresh courage take. Our God will never
us forsake;
And soon we’ll have this tale to tell- All is well! All is well!
38
He lives, my kind, wise heavenly Friend. He lives and loves
me to the end.
He lives, and while he lives, I’ll sing. He lives, my Prophet,
Priest and King
He lives and grants me daily breath. He lives , and I shall
conquer death.
He lives my mansion to prepare. He lives to bring me safely
there.
He lives! All glory o his name! He lives, my Savior, still the
same.
Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives; “I know that my
Redeemer lives!”
He lives! All glory o his name! He lives, my Savior, still the
same.
Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives; “I know that my
Redeemer lives!”
Come, Come, Ye Saints
Come, come, ye Saints, no toil nor labor fear; But with joy
wend your way.
Though hard to you this journey may appear, Grace shall
be as your day.
‘Tis better far for us to strive Our useless cares from us to
drive;
Do this, and joy your hearts will swell- All is well! All is
well!
We’ll find the place which God for us prepared, Far away
in the West,
Where none shall come to hurt or make afraid; There the
Saints will be blessed.
We’ll make the air with music ring, Shout praises to our
God and King;
Above the rest these words we’ll tell- All is well! All is well!
And should we die before our journey’s through, Happy
Day! All is well!
We then are free from toil and sorrow too; With the just we
shall dwell!
But if our lives are spared again To see the Saints their
rest obtain,
Oh, how we’ll make this chorus swell- All is Well! All is
well!!
Yes, they wobble to and fro
I can tie them in a knot
I can tie them in a bow
I can throw them over my shoulder
like a continental soldier
Yes, my ears hang low!
Do your teeth hang out?
Do they rub against your snout?
Can you use them like a pick?
Can you take them in and out?
Can they do the boogie woogie
like they do in any movie?
Do your teeth hang out?
The Ants go Marching
The ants go marching one by one.
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching one by one.
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching one by one,
the little one stopped to suck his thumb,
and they all go marching down,
To the ground,
To get out of the rain,
boom boom boom
The ants go marching two by two.
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching two by two.
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants go marching two by two,
the little one stopped to tie his shoe,
and they all go marching down,
To the ground!

Sippin'Cider
(Have half the girls sing this with the other half repeating each
line.)
The cutest boy,
I ever saw,
was sippin’ cider through a straw,
I asked him if,
he'd show me how,
To sip that cider through a straw.
He said of course,
He'd show me how,
to sip that cider through a straw.
First cheek to cheek,
then jaw to jaw,
we sipped that cider through that straw,
(Chorus) We’ll sing and we’ll shout with the armies of heaven,
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb!
Let glory to them in the highest be given,
Henceforth and forever, Amen and amen!
The Lord is extending the Saints’ understanding,
Restoring their judges and all as at first.
The knowledge and power of God are expanding;
The veil o’er the earth is beginning to burst.
(chorus)
We’ll call in our solemn assemblies in spirit,
To spread forth the kingdom of heaven abroad,
That we through our faith may begin to inherit
The visions and blessings and glories of God.
(Chorus)
How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion
Shall lie down together with out any ire,
And Ephraim be crowned with his blessings in Zion,
As Jesus descends with his chariot of fire!
(chorus)
I Know that My Redeemer Lives
I know that my Redeemer lives. What comfort this sweet
sentence gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead. He lives, my ever
living Head.
He lives to bless me with his love. He lives to plead for me
above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed. He lives to bless in time of
need.
He lives to grant me rich supply. H lives to guide me with his
eye.
He lives to comfort me when faint. He lives to hear my soul’s
complaint.
He lives to silence all my fears. He lives to wipe away my
tears.
He live to calm my troubled heart. He lives all blessings to
impart.
36
We’ll sing of his goodness and mercy. We’ll praise him by
day and by night,
Rejoice in his glorious gospel, And bask in its life-giving light.
Thus on to eternal perfection The honest and faithful will go.
While they who reject his glad message Shall never such
happiness know.
Joseph Smith’s First Prayer
Oh how lovely was the morning! Radian beamed the sun
above.
Bees were humming, sweet birds singing, Music ringing thru
the grove;
When within the shady woodland Joseph sought the God of
love,
When within the shady woodland Joseph sought the God of
love.
Humbly kneeling, sweet appealing- ‘Twas the boy’s first
uttered prayerWhen the pow’rs of sin assailing Filled his soul with deep
despair;
But undaunted, still he trusted in his Heavn’ly Father’s care.
But undaunted, still he trusted in his Heavn’ly Father’s care.
Suddenly a light descended, Brighter far than noonday sun,
And a shining glorious pillar O’er him fell, around him shone.
While appeared two heavenly beings, God the Father and the
Son,
While appeared two heavenly beings, God the Father and the
Son.
“Joseph, this is my Beloved; Hear Him!” Oh, how sweet the
word!
Joseph’s humble prayer was answered, And he listened to the
Lord.
Oh, what rapture filled his bosom, For he saw the living God.
Oh, what rapture filled his bosom, For he saw the living God.
The Spirit of God
The Spirit of God like a fire is burning!
The latter-day glory begins to come forth;
The visions and blessings of old are returning,
And angels are coming to visit the earth.
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me

Then all at once,
that darn thing slipped,
And we were sipping lip to lip
I’m bring home my baby bumble bee
Ouch! It stung me!
That's how I got
my mother -in- law,
And 49 kids
that call me ma.
The moral of,
this story is
don’t sip that, cider, sip root beer!
Alice the Camel
Alice’s camel has five humps
Alice’s camel has five humps
Alice’s camel has five humps
So go Alice go
Bump bump bump bump.

So Alice’s camel is a horse
Baby Bumble Bee
I’m bring home my baby bumble bee
I’m smashing up my baby bumble bee
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
I’m smashing up my baby bumble bee
Ugh! What a mess!

Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
I’m licking up my baby bumble bee
Eww! I feel sick!
I’m puking up my baby bumble bee
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
I’m puking up my baby bumble bee
Yuck! What a mess!
I’m sweeping up my baby bumble bee
Won’t my mommy be so proud of me
I’m sweeping up my baby bumble bee
Well, I won’t do that again!

Teach Me to Walk in the Light
Teach me to walk in the light of his love;
Teach me to pray to me Father above;
Teach me to know fo the thigns that re right;
Teach me, teach me, to walk in the light.
Come little child and together we’ll learn
Of his commandments that we may return
Home to his presence to live in his sight
Always, always to wlak in the light.

For loving guidance to show us the way.
Grateful we praise thee with songs of delight!

We Thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet

We thank thee for sending the gospel To lighten our minds

Has given me and earthly home, with parents kind and dear.

Down By The Bay
Down by the bay where the watermelons grow
Back to my home I dare not go
For if I do, my mother would say
Did you ever see a moose kissing a goose?
Down by the bay
Did you ever see a whale with a polka-dotted tail?
Did you ever see a bug sleeping on top of a rug?
Did you ever see a fly wearing a tie?
Did you ever see a bear combing his hair?
Did you ever see llamas eating pajamas?
Did you ever see a cat wearing lots of hats?
Did you ever have a time when you couldn't make a rhyme

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;

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!"

In all the world around me.
His spirit warms my soul.
Through everything I see
(chorus) He knows I will follow him,
Give all my life to him.
I feel my Savior’s love,
The love he freely gives me.
I feel my Savior’s love;
It’s gentleness enfolds me,
And when I kneel to pray,
My heart is filled with peace.
(Chorus)
I feel my Savior’s love
And know that he will bless me.
I offer him my heart;
My shepherd he will be
32
Try to show kindness in all that you do.
Be gentle and loving in deed and in through;
For these are the things Jesus taught.
I’m trying to love my neighbor,
I’m learning to serve my friends.
I watch for the day of gladness
When Jesus will come again.
I try to remember the lessons he taught.
Then the Hold Spirit enters into my through saying
(chorus)
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 grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze;
Chorus
Died anyway...
Was a dream ...
Then I woke up ...
Found a peanut ...

I will prepared to make and keep sacred covenants,
Seek promised blessings of the priesthood through obedience,
Live my life to claim the blessings sweet of Exaltation,
My testimony growing each new day.

The spirit whispers of my mission,
My individual worth,
So I seek for precious knowledge,
For learning and for growth.
I understand the meaning of accountability;
Every choice for good or ill is my responsibility.
I want to build the kingdom,
And good works is the key.
By doing with I know is right
I show integrity.
I walk by faith,
A daughter of heavenly parents.
Divine am I in nature by inheritance.
And someday when God has proven me
I’ll see him face to face.
But just for here and now I walk by faith.
Yes, just for her and now I walk by faith.
Walk Tall, You’re a Daughter of God
Right now I have a prayer deep with in my heart,
A prayer for each of you there is a special part,
That you remember who you are and him who lives above.

Hawaiian Punch
Sung to the tune of the Brady Bunch
Here's the story of a dole banana.
Who was raising three very lovely fruits.
Each of them had peels of gold.
The youngest one was green
10
Here's the story of a ripe papaya.
Who was busy with three fruits of its own.
There were four fruits living in the same tree,
But they were all alone
Until one day when banana met papaya,
And they knew that they were much more than a bunch.
Yes, this crew would somehow form a fruit drink.
That's the way they became Hawaiian Punch!
Hawaiian Punch, Hawaiian Punch!
That's the way they became Hawaiian Punch!

Noble Captain Kirk
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.

Muff the Tragic Wagon
Chorus: Muff the tragic wagon, lived by the street,
And rolled along the boulevard, through rain and snow and
sleet.
Little Tommy Pumpkin loved that wagon Muff,
Together they would travel, along the avenue,
Tommy hanging out his leg would scuff his Sunday shoe.
Taxi cabs and buses would honk as they went by,
Tragic wagons never seem to need to stop for gas.
(Chorus)
Children live forever, but not so children's toys,
Wagons can't forever be a friend to little boys.
And one gray day it happened while Tommy took his nap,
A garbage truck ran over Muff and turned him into scrap.
(Chorus)
Little Tommy Pumpkin said just off the cuff,
There will never be another tragic wagon Muff.
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.
Glory, glory, Hallelujah;
Glory, glory, what's it to ya.
Balmy breezes blowing through ya,
All: You’re wanted on the telephone.
Johnny: If it’s not Alice (use name of another person present),
then I’m not home.
All: Hey Alice!…..
(Can be sung to fill time and passed from person to person.)
Down in the Valley
Down in the valley, the valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the winds blow
Hear the winds blow, dear, hear the winds blow
Hang your head over, hear the winds blow
Down in the valley, walking between
Telling our story, here's what it means
Here's what it means, dear, here's what it means
Telling our story, here's what it means
Roses love sunshine, violets love dew
Angels in heaven know I love you
Know I love you, dear, know I love you
Angels in heaven know I love you
Build me a castle forty feet high
So I can see him as he rides by
As he rides by, dear, as he rides by
So I can see him as he rides by
Writing this letter, containing three lines
Answer my question, "Will you be mine?"
"Will you be mine, dear, will you be mine"
Answer my question, "Will you be mine?"
If you don't love me, love whom you please
Throw your arms round me, give my heart ease

Princess Pat
Here is the original "Princess Pat" - a song sung by Princess
Patricia's Light Infantry of Canada (the Rickadando being their
red, gold, & purple flag):
The Princess Pat’s Light Infantry
They sailed across the seven seas
They sailed across the channel too
And they took with them, the Rickadandoo.
He ruled them all with his quack quack, quack
CHORUS: The Rickadandoo, now what is that?
It’s something made by the Princess Pat
It’s red and gold, and purple too,
That’s why it’s called, the Rickadandoo.
Soap, soap, soap and towel;
towel and water please.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, wash your dirty knees.
Now Captain Jack, had a mightily fine crew,
They sailed across the channel too,
But his ship sank, and yours will too,
If you don’t take the Rickadandoo.
(chorus)
The Princess Pat, saw Captain Jack,
She reeled him in, and brought him back,
She saved his life, and his crew’s too,
And do you know how?—with the Rickadandoo.
(chorus)
SIX LITTLE DUCKS
Six little ducks that I once knew
Tall ones, short ones, skinny ones, too.
But the one little duck with the feathers on his back
14
He ruled them all with his quack, quack, quack.
Down to the river they would go
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble to and fro,
But the one little duck with the feathers on his back
He ruled the others with his quack, quack quack.
Into the water he would dive
In and out of the other five
But the one little duck with the feathers on his back
Soap and Towel
(Tune - "Row, Row, Row Your Boat")
Actions - place hands on knees, and in time with the song
open and close knees while swapping hands from one knee to
the other when the knees come together (as in the 1920's
"Charleston" dance, for those who can remember it...)

MORMON GIRL
Oh, when a Mormon girl walks down the street,
She looks 100 per from head to feet.
She's got the smile, that style, that winning way.
And when you look at her you'll recognize her and you'll say:
"Now there's a girl I'd like to know.
"She's got the great L-D-S pep and go."
And when you see her it is quite a treat,
It's hard to beat a Mormon Girl.
M-O-R-E-M-E-N, MORE MEN, MORE MEN SING IT AGAIN!
{Capitalized parts should be shouted, as in any good camp
song!}

Tom the Toad
(Tune of “Oh Christmas Tree”)
Oh Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad,
Why did you jump out in the road?
Did you not see that car ahead?
Now you are marked with tire tread.
Oh Tom the toad, Oh Tom the toad,
Why did you jump out in the road?
You were so green, so round and fat,
And now you are so brown and flat.
Oh Tom the toad , oh Tom the toad
Why did you jump out in the road?

She died of tooth decay!
We threw her in the Bay,
She scared the fish away!
And when we pulled her out,
She smelled like sauerkraut!
