Song Lyrics

(Thank You Amy Senna)

Yellow Duck

Wasn’t it a bit of luck that I was born a baby duck,
With yellow socks and yellow shoes,
That I may go wherever I choose,
Quack, quack, quack quack quack
YEEAAH, DUCKS!

I’m a Little Striped Skunk

I’m a little striped skunk,
Sleeping under someone’s bunk,
Nobody wants to sleep with me,
‘Cause I’m as stinky as can be.

I’m a Nut

I’m a little acorn brown,
Sitting on the cold, cold, ground.
Everybody steps on me,
That is why I’m cracked, you see.
I’m a nut, (knock knock)
I’m a nut, (knock knock)
I’m a nut, I’m a nut, I’m a nut. (knock knock)

I’m a Little Piece of Tin

I‘m a little piece of tin,
Nobody knows what shape I’m in.
Got 4 wheels and a running board,
I’m not a Chevy and I’m not a Ford.
Honk honk, rattle rattle, and a crash beep beep.
Honk honk, rattle rattle, and a crash beep beep.
Honk honk!

The Beanie Song
I’m a Brownie in a beanie, ‘neath the beanie is my face.
My face has eyes to see with, my eyes see friends to be with
My friends will all agree with me,
That we Brownies always brighten up the place!

Girl Scouts Together
Girl Scouts together, that is our song.
Winding the old trails, rocky & long.
Learning our motto, living our creed.
Girl Scouts together, in every good deed

On My Honor (Girl Scout Cookie Version)

Chorus:
On my honor I will try
To sell Girl Scout cookies all day and night
We'll sell our cookies until they’re gone.
Cause there's many more where they come from.

People don't need to know my name
They'll buy my cookies just the same
For four dollars a box, they get quite a treat
When they open up their box to eat.
Chorus

I've tucked away a box or two,
If you buy our cookies you'll have some too.
If you need Samoas then we have some,
And there's plenty more where they came from.
Chorus

We sell our cookies at the grocery store,
and we even go door to door.
Our Thin Mints, they are really great
So freeze them now before it's too late
Chorus

We've set a goal that we plan to keep,
To sell fifty boxes before we fall asleep
So buy several boxes so when we're gone,
You can still be munching and singing this song
Chorus

With our profits we have lots of fun.
We sell and sell nearly a ton.
We’re going camping, and horse riding too
and we even get to sleep at the zoo
Chorus

Our cookie sale lasts only two weeks.
But we have lots of fun with the people we meet.
So buy our cookies before we go.
‘Cause we won't be back for a year or so.
Chorus

Whene'er You Make a Promise (a round)

Whene'er you make a promise
Consider well it's importance
And when made, engrave it upon your heart

Linstead Market

Carry me ackee go a Linstead Market
Not a quattee wut sell! [clap clap]
Carry me ackee go a Linstead Market,
Not a quattee wut sell! [clap clap]

Chorus:
Lawd, what a life, not a bite,
What a Saturday night (oh Lordy)
Lawd, what a life, not a bite,
What a Saturday night!

Everybody come feel ‘em, feel ‘em,
Not a quattee wut sell. [clap clap]
Everybody come feel ‘em, feel ‘em,
Not a quattee wut sell. [clap clap]
CHORUS

[ackee=a red fruit; quattee=small sum of money; feel’em=examine the fruit]

The Noble Duke of York
Tune: "A-Hunting We Will Go"

The Noble Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up the hill [stand up]
And then he marched them down again [sit down]
And when you're up, you're up [stand up]
And when you're down, you're down [sit down]
And when you're only halfway up [stand 1/2-way up]
You're neither up nor down! (stand up & sit down)

Repeat, faster each time. You may also dance the Virginia Reel to this song.
