    All the CrittersChorus:All the critters got a place in the choirSome sing low, some sing higher,Some sing out loud on a telephone wireSome just clap their hands, or paws,

    Or anything they got now

    Listen to the bass, it's the one on the bottomWhere the bullfrog croaks,And the hippopotamusMoans and groans with a big to doAnd the old cow just goes moo

    The dog and the cat, they take up the middleWhere the hummingbird hums,

    And the crickets fiddleThe donkey brays, and the pony neighsAnd the old coyote howls

    Chorus

    Listen to the top, where the little bird singsThe melody and the high notes ringThe moon owl's hoot knows everything,And the jaybird hits the breeze

    Singing in the nighttime, singing in the dayAnd the little dog laughs when he's on his wayThe possum ain't got much to say,And the porcupine keeps to himself

    Chorus

    Well it's a simple song, you can sing anywhereWith the ox, and the fox, and the grizzly bearLonely alligator, and the hawk above,

    Wise raccoon and turtledove

    When we'll live in this landYou and me, hand in handTake my hand, come alongLend your voice to this songCome along, take my hand, sing a song To a land where the river runs freeTo a land through the green countryTo a land to the shining seaTo a land where the horses run freeAnd you and me are free to beYou and me

    Every boy in this landGrows to be his own manEvery girl in this landGrows to be her own womanTake my hand, come with meWhere the children are freeCome with me, take my hand and we'll run

    To a land where the river runs freeTo a land through the green countryTo a land to the shining seaTo a land where the horses run freeTo a land where the children are freeAnd you and me are free to beYou and me

    Give Yourself to LoveKind friends all gather 'round, there'sSomething I would sayWhat bring us together hereHas blessed us all today.Love has made a circle

    That holds us all inside,Where strangers are as family,Loneliness can't hide

    Chorus:You must give yourself to love,If love is what you're afterOpen up your hearts to theTears and laughterAnd give yourself to love, and

    Give yourself to love

    Walked these mountains in the rain, I'veLearned to love the windI've been up before the sunriseJust to watch the day beginAnd I always knew I'd find youThough I never did know howLike sunshine on a cloudy day, youStand before me now

    Chorus

    Your love is born in fire, it'sPlanted like a seedLove can't give you everything,But it gives you what you needLove comes when you're ready,Love comes when you're afraid,It'll be your greatest teacher,The best friend you have made

    Chorus

    Good RiddanceAnother turning point,A fork stuck in the roadTime grabs you by the wrist,Directs you where to go

    So make the best of this testAnd don't ask whyIt's not a question,But a lesson learned in time

    Chorus:It's something unpredictableBut in the end it's rightI hope you had the time of your life

    So take the photographsAnd still frames in your mindHang it up on a shelfIn good health and good times

    Tattoos and memoriesAnd dead skin on trial,For what it's worth,It was worth all the while

    GypsyYou come from far away,With pictures in your eyesOf coffee shops, and morning streetsAnd the blue and silent sunriseBut night is the cathedral

    Where we recognize the signWe strangers know each other nowAs part of a whole design

    Chorus:So now hold me like a babyThat will not fall asleepCurl me up inside youLet me hear you through the heatOh, oh, oh, oh

    You're the jester of this courtyard,With a smile like a girl'sDistracted by the womenWith the dimples and the curlsBy the pretty and the mischievousBy the timid and the blessedBy the blowing skirts of ladiesWho promise to gather you to their breast

    Chorus

    You have hands of raining water,And that earring in your earThe wisdom on your face deniesThe number of your yearsWith the fingers of a potter,And the laughing tale of the fool

    The arranger of disorderWith your strange yet simple rules

    Yeah now I've met me another spinnerOf strange and gauzy threadWith a long and slender bodyAnd a bump upon the head

    Chorus

    With a long and slender bodyAnd the sweetest, softest handsAnd we'll blow away forever soonAnd go on to distant landsPlease do not ever look for meAnd with me you will stayAnd you'll hear yourself in songBlowing by again someday

    But nowChorus

    Hobo's LullabyChorus:So go to sleep you weary hobo,Let the towns drift slowly byCan't you hear the steel rails hummingThat's the hobo's lullaby

    I know your clothes are torn and raggedAnd your hair is turning greyLift your head and smile at troublesYou'll find peace and rest someday

    Chorus

    Don't you worry 'bout tomorrowLet tomorrow come and go

    Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcarSafe from all that wind and snow

    Chorus

    I know the police cause you troubleThey cause trouble everywhereBut when you die and go to heavenThere'll be no policemen there

    Chorus

    Human TouchIt's the human touch in this world that countsThe touch of your hand in mineIt means far more to the fainting heartThan shelter, bread, and wine

    The shelter's gone when the night is o'erThe bread lasts only a dayBut the touch of your handAnd the sound of your voiceLives on in my soul always

    May the road rise up to meet youMay the wind be always at your backMay the sunshine warm upon your faceThe rains fall soft upon your field

    And until we meet again somedayMay God hold you in the palm of his handMay the memories that we have sharedLinger on and on.

    IowaI've never had a way with womenBut the hills of IowaMake me wish that I couldAnd I've never found a wayTo say I love you

    But if the chance came by,Oh I, I would

    But way back where I come from,We never mean to botherWe don't like to make our passionsOther people's concernsAnd we walk in a world of safe peopleAnd at night we walk intoOur houses and burn

    Chorus:I-o-o-o-o-o-o i-o-o i-o-o-o i-o IowaI-o-o-o-o-o-o i-o-o i-o-o-o i-o Iowa

    How I long to fall, Just a little bitTo dance out of the linesAnd stray from the lightBut I fear that to fall in love with youIs to fall from a greatAnd gruesome height

    So I asked a friend about it,On a bad dayHer husband had just left herShe sat down on a chair he left behindShe said, What is love,Where did it get me? Whoever thought of loveIs no friend of mine.

    Chorus

    One I had everything, I gave it upFor the should of your drivewayAnd the words I've never feltAnd so for you, I came this far across the trackTen miles above the limit

    And with no seatbeltAnd I'd do it again

    For tonight, I went runningThrough the screen doors of discretionFor I woke up from a nightmareThat I could not stand to seeYou were wandering, out on the hills of IowaAnd you were not thinking of me

    Puff the Magic DragonChorus:Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mistIn a land called Honah Lee,

    Little Jackie Paper, he loved that rascal Puff,

    And brought her strings and sealing waxAnd other fancy stuff.

    ChorusTogether they would travelOn a boat with billowed sail Jackie kept a lookout perchedOn Puff's gigantic tail. Noble kings and princeswould bow whene'er they came,Pirate ships would lower their flagWhen Puff roared out her name. ChorusA dragon lives forever,But not so little boysPainted wings and giant ringsMake way for other toys.One grey night it happened,Jackie Paper came no moreAnd Puff that mighty dragon,She ceased her fearless roar.Her head was bent in sorrow,Green scales fell like rain, Puff no longer went to playAlong the cherry lane. Without her life-long friend,

    Puff could not be brave,So Puff that mighty dragon,Sadly slipped into her cave.
