Scout songs with original artwork from spectacular artists.
Mm, I want to linger
Mm, A little longer
Mm, A little longer here with you
Mm, It’s such a perfect night
Mm, This doesn’t seem quite right
Mm, That this should be our last with you
Mm, And come September
Mm, We’ll all remember
Mm, Our camping days and friendships true
Mm, And as the years go by
Mm, I’ll think of you and sigh
Mm, This is goodnight and not goodbye
Mm, I want to linger
Mm, A little longer
Mm, A little longer here with you
Joseph Parry (1841-1903)
Make new friends, but keep the old
One is silver and the other’s gold
A circle’s round, it has no end
That’s how long I want to 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 another
Put them together and we have each other.
Silver is precious, gold is too.
I am precious and so are you.
You help me and I’ll help you
And together we will see it through.
The sky is blue, the Earth is green
I can help it keep it clean.
Across the land, across the sea
Friends forever we will always be.

There was a great big moose He liked to drink a lot of juice There was a great big moose He liked to drink a lot of juice Chorus: Singing oh-way-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh Waaay-oh-waaay-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh The moose’s name was Fred He liked to drink his juice in bed The moose’s name was Fred He liked to drink his juice in bed Chorus: Singing oh-way-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh Waaay-oh-waaay-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh He drank his juice with care But he spilled some on his hair He drank his juice with care But he spilled some on his hair Chorus: Singing oh-way-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh Waaay-oh-waaay-oh Way- oh-way-oh-way-oh-way-oh Now he’s a sticky moose ‘Cause he’s all covered in JUICE!!
Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray yee-ha!
Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray
He hops from place to place
To save the human race
He’s Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray
The rabbit and the boy were caught in a radiation storm
And when the clouds had lifted, the boy had been transformed!
The rabbit and the boy had been mutated into one
And the legend of Murray the rabbit-boy begun
Sing it!
Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray yee-ha!
Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray
He hops from place to place
To save the human race
He’s Murray the rabbit-boy, Murray
My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea
My Bonnie lies over the ocean
So 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, to me
(substitute other beans in for “pinto” on following versus- lima, cocoa, green, string jelly, garbanzo, etc.)
My dog Pinto likes to roam
One day Pinto didn’t come home
He came back all nice and clean
Where oh where has Pinto bean?
Pinto bean, Pinto bean
Where oh where has Pinto bean?
Oh, Lordy Can’t You Smell Her
She’s down there in the cellar
Cooking canned beans on a dirty sto-ove
She’s picking out her lice
and putting it in the rice
While the “sniff” goes running down her no-ose
Down her no-ose! Down her no-ose!
While the “sniff” goes running down her no-ose
Replace the underlined portion with the following for additional verses:
2. pulling off her scabs- putting it in the crabs
3. shaving her legs- putting it in the eggs
4. picking off her leeches- dropping ‘em in the peaches
5. got a boil on her belly- that’s oozing into the jelly
Late last night, when we were all in bed
Old Lady Leery left the lantern in the shed
And when the cow kicked it over
She winked her eye and said
It’ll be a hot time in old town tonight
Fire! Fire! Fire!
Water! Water! Water!
Save my baby! Save my baby!
Jump, lady, jump!
(Lyrics- Cindy Dunch)
On my honor, I will try
There’s a duty to be don’t, and I say aye
There’s a reason here and a reason above
My honor is to try and my duty is to love
People don’t need to know my name
If I’ve done any harm, then I’m to blame
If I’ve helped another, than I’ve helped me
If I’ve opened up my eyes to see
I’ve tucked a way a song or two
If you’re feeling low, there’s one for you
If you need a friend, then I will come
And there’s many more where I come from
Come with me where a fire burns bright
We can even see better in a candle’s light
But we find more meaning in a campfire’s glow
Then we’d ever learn in a year or so
We’ve made a promise to always keep
And the day is done before we sleep
We’ll be Girl Scouts together and when we’re gone
We’ll still be trying and singing this song
