Birdie Song
   
Way up in the sky the little birds fly
While down in the nest the baby birds rest
With a wing on the left, and a wing on the right
The little birds sleep all through the night
(shouted) Shhhh … they’re sleeping!
The bright sun comes up, the dew melts away
Good morning, good morning, the little birds say
Chirp!


Bazooka Bubblegum
   

My mom gave me a penny
She said go buy a henny.
But I didn't buy a henny
Instead I bought some bubblegum.

(Chorus)
Bazooka-zooka bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka bubblegum

My mom gave me a nickel,
She said to buy a pickle,
But I didn't buy a pickle,
Instead I bought some bubblegum.

(Chorus)

My mom gave me a dime,
She said go buy a lime,
But I didn't buy a lime,
Instead I bought some bubblegum.

(Chorus)

My mom gave me a quarter,
She said to tip the porter,
But I didn't tip the porter,
Instead I bought some bubblegum.

(Chorus)

My mom gave me a dollar,
She said go buy a collar,
But I didn't buy a collar,
Instead I bought some bubblegum.

(Chorus)


Boogie Woogie Washer Woman
   
Down in the jungle where nobody goes

With a scrub-a-dub here and a scrub-a-dub there
The boogie woogie washer woman washing her clothes
Diddley-ap-oh-a-boogie, a boogie
Diddley-ap-oh-a-boogie, a boogie
Diddley-ap-oh-a-boogie, a boogie
The boogie woogie washer woman washing her clothes
Yah!

Crocodile
   
She sailed away on a sunny summer day
On the back of a crocodile
“You see,” said she, “he’s as tame as he can be,”
“I’ll ride him down the Nile!”
The croc winked his eye as she waved them all goodbye
Wearing a happy smile
At the end of the ride, the lady was inside
And the smile was on the crocodile!


Down by the Bay
   
Chorus:
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
For if I do,
My mother will say:

Verses:
Did you ever see a snake baking a cake, down by the bay?
Did you ever see a fly wearing a tie, down by the bay?
Did you ever see a bear combing his hair, down by the bay?
Did you ever see a llama wearing pajamas, down by the bay?
(Continue, letting girls make up their own rhymes)
