A house so quiet, so humble A child beside her bed Her hands clasped tightly, it's time to pray So she bows her little head Happy Birthday, Jesus Daddy said that You were near And that You had a birthday This time every year He told me how You listen to Ever...

Look ahead, look astern, look the weather and the lee, Blow high ! Blow low ! and so sailed we. I see a wreck to windward and a lofty ship to lee, A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree. O are you a pirate or a man o'war ? cried we Blow high !...

Was you ever in Quebec? Bonny laddie, Highland laddie, Loading timber on the deck, My bonny Highland laddie. High-ho, and away she goes, Bonny laddie, Highland laddie, High-ho, and away she goes, My bonny Highland laddie. Was you ever in Callao Wher...

Holly Jolly Christmas Have a holly jolly Christmas It's the best time of the year I don't know if there'll be snow But have a cup of cheer Have a holly jolly Christmas And when you walk down the street Say hello to friends you know and everyone you meet Oh,...

Oh give me home Where the buffalo roam Where the deer and the antelope play Where seldom is heard A discour-aging word And the skies are not cloudy all day Home, home on the range Where the deer and the antelope play Where seldom is heard A discour...

Horace the horse on the merry-go-round Went up and down, round and round He’s been sad since the day he found He’s the very last horse on the merry-go-round The music began and away they go High and low, to and fro Poor old Horace would always say “I’m...

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog Cryin' all the time. You ain't nothin' but a hound dog Cryin' all the time. Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit And you ain't no friend of mine. When they said you was high classed Well, that was just a lie. Yeah th...

How much do I love you? I'll tell you no lie How deep is the ocean? How high is the sky? How many times a day do I think of you? How many roses are sprinkled with dew? How far would I travel To be where you are? How far is the journey From here to a star? A...

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder, Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made; I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy power throughout the universe displayed. Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee, How great Thou art, How great Tho...

I heard the bells on Christmas day Their old familiar carols play And wild and sweet the words repeat Of peace on earth, good will to men I thought how, as the day had come The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along th' unbroken song Of peace on earth,...

I know an old lady who swallowed a fly I don't know why she swallowed the fly I guess she'll die I know an old lady who swallowed a spider That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her She swallowed the spider to catch the fly I don't know why she sw...

I know my love by her way of walking And I know my love by her way of talking And I know my love by her suit of blue But if my love leaves me, what will I do? CHORUS And yet she cries "I Love him the best" But a troubled mind sure can know no rest. And...

I left my gal in the mountains left her standing in the rain Went down to the railroad caught myself a midnight train I beat my way into Georgia landed in a gambling town Got myself into trouble shot a county sheriff down The jury read the verdict murder...

[ANNA] Whenever I feel afraid I hold my head erect And whistle a happy tune So no one will suspect I'm afraid. While shivering in my shoes I strike a careless pose And whistle a happy tune And no one ever knows I'm afraid. The result of this dece...

'Twould been better for us both had we never In this wide and wicked world had never met, But the pleasure we both seemed to gather I'm sure, love, I'll never forget Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes Who is sailing far over the sea I'm thinking t...

I have got no use for the women, a true one may never be found. They'll stick by a man for his money And when it's gone, they turn him down. They're all alike at the bottom, selfish and gasping for all. They'll stand by a man while he's winning And laugh...

It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold! Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heaven's all gracious King! The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing...
