1.) "I Love"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I love little baby ducks
Old pickup trucks
Slow-moving trains
And rain
I love little country streams
Sleep without dreams
Sunday school in May
And hay
[Chorus]
And I love you too
[Verse 2]
I love leaves in the wind
Pictures of my friends
Birds of the world
And squirrels
I love coffee in a cup
Little fuzzy pups
Old TV shows
And snow
[Chorus]
And I love you too
[Verse 3]
I love honest open smiles
Kisses from a child
Tomatoes on the vine
And onions
I love winners when they cry
Losers when they try
Music when it's good
And life
[Chorus]
And I love you too
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.) "Sneaky Snake"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Boys and girls take warning
If you go near the lake
Keep your eyes wide open
And look for Sneaky Snake
Now maybe you won't see him
Maybe you won't hear
But he'll sneak up behind you
And drink all of your root beer
[Chorus]
And then Sneaky Snake goes dancing
Wigglin' and a-hissin'
Sneaky Snake goes dancing
Gigglin' and a-kissin'
I don't like ol' Sneaky Snake
He laughs too much you see
When he goes wigglin' through the grass
It tickles his underneath
[Verse 2]
Well Sneaky Snake drinks root beer
And he just makes me sick
When he is not dancing
He looks just like a stick
Now he doesn't have any arms or legs
You cannot see his ears
And while we are not lookin'
He's stealin' all of our beer
[Chorus]
And then Sneaky Snake goes dancing
Wigglin' and a-hissin'
Sneaky Snake goes dancing
A-gigglin' and a-kissin'
I don't like ol' Sneaky Snake
He laughs too much you see
When he goes wigglin' through the grass
It tickles his underneath
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
3.) "The Mysterious Fox of Fox Hollow"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Capo on 1st fret [!]
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The mysterious fox of Fox Hollow
He doesn't have many friends
He hides in the forest behind a big rock
He sniffs with his nose in the wind (*sniff* *sniff*)
[Chorus]
And you'll never see him there's no need to look
He'll hide in the grass or he'll hide in a bush
Sometimes he will run and jump over a log
For he is afraid of your dog (woof! woof!)
[Verse 2]
The mysterious fox of Fox Hollow
He plays with a foxy old bunch
He comes out at night to steal chickens
And someday he might steal your lunch
[Chorus]
And you'll never see him there's no need to look
He'll hide in the grass or he'll hide in a bush
Sometimes he will run and jump over a log
For he is afraid of your dog (woof! woof!)
[Chorus]
The mysterious fox of Fox Hollow
You ask me how I know
Though I've never seen him one day at the barn
I saw his tracks in the snow (four of them)
[Chorus]
And you'll never see him there's no need to look
He'll hide in the grass or he'll hide in a bush
Sometimes he will run and jump over a log
For he is afraid of your dog (woof! woof!)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
4.) "How to Talk to a Little Baby Goat"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
How do you talk to a little baby goat?
You can't go "meow" like a cat
When you go "meow" to a little baby goat
He can't go "meow" right back
[Chorus]
No you have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat
You can't say "hello" like a man
You have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat
That's all he understands
[Verse 2]
How do you talk to a little baby goat?
You can't go "cackle" like a hen
When you go "cackle" to a little baby goat
It doesn't mean a thing to him
[Chorus]
So you have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat
You can't say "hello" like a man
You have to say "baaa" to a little baby goat
That's all he understands
[Verse 3]
How do you talk to a little baby goat?
You can't go "quack" like a duck
When you go "quack" to a little baby goat
It just doesn't mean very much
[Chorus]
And so you can't go "meow" "cackle" "quack" to a goat
You can't say "hello" like a man
You can't go "meow" "cackle" "quack" to a goat
Remember you have to say "baaa"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
5.) "The Barn Dance"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
One night as I was sleeping something awakened me
There was a light on in my barn so I went down to see
I peeked through a big ol' crack in the door and a-what do you think I saw?
The animals were having a barn dance right in the horse's stall
[Chorus]
And there was the chicken doing the Chicken Reel and the muskrat rambled on
The old cow did the Cow-Cow Boogie and the rooster crowed a song
A mouse came out of his hiding place and he danced on one leg
The old hen got so tickled that she almost laid an egg
[Banjo Solo]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
They were all dressed up for the barn dance it made me want to laugh
The rabbit wore big bow tie and the pig was -looking in looking glass
And the goose danced with the gander 'til an old goat butted in
The horse was a-horsin' around a lot until the mare got mad at him
[Chorus]
And there was the chicken doing the Chicken Reel and the muskrat rambled on
The old cow did the Cow-Cow Boogie and the rooster crowed a song
A mouse came out of his hiding place and he danced on one leg
The old hen got so tickled that she almost laid an egg
And there was the chicken doing the Chicken Reel and the muskrat rambled on
The old cow did the Cow-Cow Boogie and the rooster crowed a song
A mouse came out of his hiding place and he danced on one leg
The old hen got so tickled that she almost laid an egg
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
6.) "Ole Lonesome George the Basset"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
/
/
/
[Verse 1]
Ole Lonesome George the basset lived in Brentwood Tennessee
And even though he had his faults he was a sight to see
He taught the show dog puppies to always try and please
To hold their heads and tails up and not wet the judge's knees
/
/
[Verse 2]
Ole George was not a champion but his owners loved him so
They'd drive the car to dog shows Ole George would get to go
But when he'd get out in the ring he never could win first
Several judges shook their heads and said he was the worst
/
/
/
[Verse 3]
Then one day the kennel keeper got an urgent call
From the local TV to Mr. Tom T. Hall
They said "Johnny Cash is putting on a show tonight
He says he needs a basset. You've got one ain't that right?"
/
/
/
[Verse 4]
Lonesome George went to the show and he did everything
He barked and growled and jumped around and made the rappers ring
He'd left the people cheering for another curtain call
And so Ole Lonesome George became the show dog after all
/

7.) "I Wish I Had a Million Friends"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I wish I had a million friends
And a playground as big as the world
I wish I had a million friends
Some kittens some boys and some girls
I wish I had a million friends
Some people some puppies and cats
Some chickens a mouse and a bird
And maybe I'd like to have a big friendly rat yech!
[Verse 2]
I wish I had a million friends
And a sandbox as big as a school
I wish I had a million friends
And a frog that goes "ribbit" in the pool
I wish I had a million friends
I'd like to have all different sorts
One for the morning the noon and the night
N..
monkey and zebra and big white horse oh boy
[Verse 3]
I wish I had a million friends
Who would listen and talk to me too
I wish I had a million friends
The whole wide world and a whole big zoo
I wish I had a million friends
Who were thoughtful kind and true
I wish I had a million friends
And I wish they were all like you
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
8.) "Everybody Loves to Hear a Bird Sing"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
(whistles)
[Verse 1]
Sometimes birds don't have enough to eat
There's not enough food in the fields or the street
There are too many cities where there used to be trees
So it's left up to you and me
[Chorus]
Everybody loves to hear a bird sing
(whistles)
The prettiest music you have ever heard
Here's how to make friends with a bird
[Verse 2]
First you get some peanut butter out of a jar
And you can buy a bag of bird seed anywhere
You mix it all together and you put it on the ground
And pretty soon the birds come around
[Chorus]
Everybody loves to hear a bird sing
(whistles)
The prettiest music you have ever heard
Here's how to make friends with a bird
[Verse 3]
Some people buy spray and they spray it on the land
They kill all the little bitty bugs that they can
The birds eat the bugs and it makes them sick
I wish we didn't have to do that
[Chorus]
'cause everybody loves to hear a bird sing
(whistles)
The prettiest music you have ever heard
Here's how to make friends with a bird
[Verse 4]
Right now you're young and you're not very tall
You're really very busy and you're really very small
Someday when you're older and things go wrong
You're gonna need a pretty bird song
[Chorus]
Because everybody loves to hear a bird sing
(whistles)
The prettiest music you have ever heard
That's how to make friends with a bird
[Outro]
(whistles)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
9.) "I Like to Feel Pretty Inside"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
A mink wears a mink coat the whole year around
Even when he is not going to town
A skunk has a striped coat "it's pretty" he thinks
Although we all know he stinks
An elephant has hide as hard as a rock
A zebra has stripes and the leopard has spots
Sometimes I'm sad when I look at my hide
But I'd rather feel pretty inside
[Chorus]
I like to feel pretty inside don't you?
I like being kind and I like being true
I like to like me when I close my eyes
I like to feel pretty inside
Oh I like to feel pretty inside
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
If a mink wore a cloth coat the whole year around
If he had to wear it when he went to town
If skunk had red coat and smelled like rose
Do you think he'd turn up his nose?
If elephants had fur as likely as not
A leopard would have stripes and the zebra had spots
I guess it would be great to have a new hide
But I'd rather feel pretty inside
[Chorus]
I like to feel pretty inside don't you?
I like being kind and I like being true
I like to like me when I close my eyes
I like to feel pretty inside
Oh I like to feel pretty inside
I like to feel pretty inside don't you?
I like being kind and I like being true
I like to like me when I close my eyes
I like to feel pretty inside
Oh I like to feel pretty inside
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
10.) "The Song of the One Legged Chicken"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Do you like true stories? I do
That's why I'm singing this song
A song about a one-legged chicken
Who lives in the straw on the floor in my barn
I remember the day she was hatched out
The vet came to see her and said
"She has only one leg. She'll never grow up."
He said that chick would be better off dead
[Verse 2]
I said "No let's just let her keep growing
We'll just wait and see how she gets"
Before very long she was hopping
And pecking and chasing the bugs with the rest
And now she is a beautiful chicken
Though she has only one leg
When I go to see her each morning
She hops from the nest and she leaves me an egg
N.C.
And she cackles
[Verse 3]
Do you like true stories? I do
That's why I've sung you this song
The song about the one-legged chicken
Who lives on the floor in my barn
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
11.) "I Care"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
When the TV won't work and your toys fall apart
And you have a sad feeling deep in your heart
You wanna go out but it's raining out there
I want you to know I care
[Chorus]
I care I do
There's no one like you
When they take you someplace and you sit in the chair
I want you to know I care
[Verse 2]
When you tell a big lie and your parents are mean
When being grown-up is a faraway dream
When they're filling your teeth and cutting your hair
I want you to know I care
[Chorus]
I care I do
There's no one like you
I mention your name when I'm saying my prayers
I want you to know I care
[Verse 3]
When you have a bad cold and you can't go out
When you sit for a week with that thing in your mouth
When you sleep in the dark and there's something out there
I want you to know I care
[Chorus]
I care I do
There's no one like you
And sometimes I act like a grouchy old bear
I want you to know I care
N.C.
I love you too much
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
12.) "Let's Go Shopping Today"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Let's go shopping today
I wanna get you a dream
I wanna get you a rainbow
Get you a cloud and a stream
The cloud will have silver inside
The stream will have fishes and ducks
There'll be a pot at the end of the rainbow
Filled with good health and good luck
[Chorus]
Let's go shopping today
All you must do is believe
You'll have everything you'll ever need
If you'll go shopping with me
[Verse 2]
Let's go shopping today
I wanna get you the sun
I wanna get you a place to walk
Get you a place to run
The place to walk will be cool
The sun will be right out of June
I wanna get you a small shiny star
Get you an extra large moon
[Chorus]
Let's go shopping today
We won't leave a thing on the shelf
You'll have everything you'll ever need
If you'll go shopping with me
[Verse 3]
Let's go shopping today
I wanna get you a smile
I wanna get you a faith that lives
Forever and then for awhile
You'll have a smile you can share
You'll have a faith that is true
You'll be someone the world can love
Someone the heavens can use
[Chorus]
Let's go shopping today
We won't need dollars or dimes
All of these things I've mentioned are free
If you'll go shopping with me
Let's go shopping today
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
13.) "Fox Hollow's Animal Train"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
When we took off we almost had a critter of each kind
We had a duckbill platypus and we had a big ol' lion
We had horse with two front teeth and monkey on chain
Riding on Fox Hollow's Animal Train
[Verse 2]
Well the skunk got off in Schenectady we's glad to see him go
The duck got off in Kentucky and the bear got off in Buffalo
The horse got off in Austin the mink got off in Maine
Riding on Fox Hollow's Animal Train
[Verse 3]
Well the cat jumped on the kangaroo and the elephant fell down
The monkey blew the whistle every time we passed a town
The lion fell asleep and left his tail out in the rain
Riding on Fox Hollow's Animal Train
[Verse 4]
The beaver lost his toothbrush and the zebra lost his shirt
The possum played the banjo and the pig played in the dirt
We got off in Nashville just to play this little song
Fox Hollow's Animal Train keeps moving on
(And now the possum will play the banjo)
[Banjo Solo]
[Verse 5]
If you hear this train a-coming you just listen for this sound
...That means that we're in town
Get on board and we'll all laugh and play some silly games
Riding on Fox Hollow's Animal Train
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
14.) "The Dancing Tree"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
/
[Verse 1]
There's a little ol' tree that grows out in my yard
He's not very wide or too tall or too large
He stands there so still 'til the wind comes to call
When the wind blows the little tree starts having a ball
[Chorus]
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
He dances so hard I'm afraid he will fall
[Verse 2]
He dances all summer and when snow comes down
He dances and throws all his leaves on the ground
He makes me so mad I say "Hey if you please
Would you stop that dancing each time there's a breeze?"
[Chorus]
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
He dances so hard I'm afraid he will fall
[Verse 3]
Now I cannot dance very well you'll agree
But sometimes I wish I could dance like a tree
I' swing and I' sway and I' shake all my limbs
And I'd never fall down 'cause I'd be just like him
[Chorus]
He swings and he sways and he shakes all his limbs
The little ol' tree loves to dance with the wind
He rustles and bustles when the wind comes to call
He dances so hard I'm afraid he will fall
N.C.
But he never does!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
15.) "Let's Play Remember"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Let's play remember let's play remember
Remember the way that it's played
[Verse 1]
Remember the day that we went to the moon
We went to the moon in the middle of June
And as we blew over we met an old cow
I know you remember that now
[Chorus]
Let's play remember let's play remember
Remember the way that it's played
[Verse 2]
Remember the time we were seven feet tall
We used to pick apples and play basketball
Our beds were too short so we slept on the floor
And you bumped your head on the door
[Chorus]
Let's play remember let's play remember
Remember the way that it's played
[Verse 3]
Remember the time that we dressed up like clowns
Our smiles were real big and our noses were round
We didn't get hurt every time we fell down
I know you remember the clown
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Remember the time we were both on TV
And everyone said that they loved you and me
We sang and we dance and we played and we grinned
And they told us they loved us again
[Verse 5]
Remember the time we were both millionaires
We didn't have worries we didn't have cares
We fed all the hungry the poor and the weak
Next day we were back on the street oh well
[Chorus]
Let's play remember let's play remember
Remember the way that it's played
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
16.) "Randy Raccoon"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Chorus]
This is the story of Randy Raccoon
He stays up all night and he sleeps until noon
He's been up so long he's got rings on his tail
He's wearing a mask like he should be in jail
[Verse 1]
He washes his food by the side of the creek
I guess his mother taught him to be neat
He climbs up a tree and he sleeps underground
I guess he knows everybody in town
[Verse 2]
He wears a fur coat it's all that he's got
He wears that fur coat when it's cold and it's hot
And when it starts raining he goes right on out
His fur turns into a raincoat no doubt
[Verse 3]
When the weather gets cold and there's snow on the ground
Randy goes down to his bed underground
He curls himself up with his nose at his feet
And Randy Raccoon gets to sleep for a week
[Chorus]
This is the story of Randy Raccoon
He stays up all night and he sleeps until noon
He's been up so long he's got rings on his tail
He's wearing a mask like he should be in jail
[Verse 4]
You know one time I put out some food for my cat
And that's how I found out how Randy got fat
That rascal came by in the still of the night
He cleaned up the dish and he ate every bite
[Chorus]
This is the story of Randy Raccoon
He stays up all night and he sleeps until noon
He's been up so long he's got rings on his tail
He's wearing a mask like he should be in jail
And he can see in the dark
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
17.) "The Duck and the Rooster"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
It'll take me a minute to tell you this rhyme
Of the duck and the rooster that I knew one time
A little duck hatched out a day or two late
His mama had already gone to the lake
[Verse 2]
The little red rooster had broken his foot
So I put him into a little ol' coop
The little white duck was left out on his own
So I put them together until they were grown
[Verse 3]
Well the duck thought the rooster was limping and lame
The rooster believed that the duck was the same
And so they were pals in the coop in the barn
They huddled together when it came a storm
[Verse 4]
Well the weeks they went by and the little guys grew
The little duck quacked and the rooster cocky-dooed
The duck loved the water and the rooster would scratch
And neither one knew why they acted like that
[Verse 5]
Well one day I turned them both free on the farm
The rooster went straight to a roost in the barn
The little duck went to the lake for a swim
They liked different things even though they were friends
[Verse 6]
Well now you should hear them when they say hello
Though it may sound funny I know that it's so
I know that it's strange but I'll tell you it's true
N.C.
When they talk they go "quacky-doodle-do"
[Outro]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
