My Grand Fathers Clock
Lyrics
Introduction
Verse 1
My grandfather's clock
Was too large for the shelf,
So it stood ninety years on the floor;
It was taller by half
Than the old man himself,
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more.
It was bought on the morn
Of the day that he was born,
It was always his treasure and pride;
But it stopped short
Never to go again,
When the old man died.
Music Interlude
Verse 2
In watching its pendulum
Swing to and fro,
Many hours had he spent while a boy;
And in childhood and manhood
The clock seemed to know,
And share both his grief and his joy.
And it struck twenty-four
When he entered at the door,
With a blooming and beautiful bride;
But it stopped short
Never to go again,
When the old man died.
Yes it stopped short
Never to go again,
When the old man died.

Lyrics
Introduction
Verse 1
Song - Oh, Susannah,
I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
I'm going to Louisiana,
My true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left
The weather it was dry
The sun so hot, I froze to death
Susannah, don't you cry.
Oh, Susannah,
Oh don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee.
I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee.

Song - Old Folks At Home
Way down upon the Swanee River, far, far away
That's where my heart is turning ever
That's where the old folks stay
All up and down the whole creation, sadly I roam
Still longing for the old plantation
And for the old folks at home
All the world is sad and dreary everywhere I roam
Oh darkies, how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
Far from the old folks at home

My Old Kentucky Home
Lyrics
Introduction
Verse 1
The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home
'Tis summer, the people are gay;
The corn top's ripe and the meadow's in bloom,
While the birds make music all the day;
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor,
All merry, all happy, and bright,
By'n by hard times comes a-knocking at the door,
Then my old Kentucky home, good night!
Weep no more, my lady,
Weep no more today!
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
For the old Kentucky home far away.
Music Interlude
Verse 2
They hunt no more for the 'possum and the coon,
On meadow, the hill and the shore,
They sing no more by the glimmer of the moon,
On the bench by that old cabin door;
Weep no more, my lady,
Oh weep no more today!
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
For the old Kentucky home far away.
Music Interlude
Verse 3
The day goes by like a shadow o'er the heart,
With sorrow where all was delight;
The time has come when the people have to part,
Then my old Kentucky home, good night!
Weep no more, my lady,
Weep no more today!
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
For the old Kentucky home far away.
For our old Kentucky home far away.
Good night!

If it ever so humble

Song - Clementine
In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter Clementine.
Oh my darling, oh my darling
Oh my darling, Clementine
Thou art lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry, Clementine.
Music Interlude
Verse 2
Drove her ducklings to the water
Every morning just at nine,
Hit her foot against a splinter
Fell into the foaming brine.
Ruby lips above the water,
Blowing bubbles soft and fine,
But alas, I was no swimmer,
So I lost my Clementine.

My grandfather's clock
Was too large for the shelf,
So it stood ninety years on the floor;
It was taller by half
Than the old man himself,
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more.
It was bought on the morn
Of the day that he was born,
It was always his treasure and pride;
But it stopped short
Never to go again,
When the old man died.

I Want A Girl
Melody
Lyrics
Song - I want a girl
I just want a girl
Just like the girl who married dear old Dad.
She was a pearl
And the only girl that Daddy ever had;
A real old fashioned girl with heart so true,
One who loves nobody else but you,
I want a girl
Just like the girl that married dear old Dad.
Music Interlude
I want a girl
Just like the girl who married dear old Dad.
She was a pearl
And the only girl that Daddy ever had;
A real old fashioned girl with heart so true,
One who loves nobody else but you,
Oh I want a girl
Just like the girl that married dear old Dad.
Music interlude
Song - Put your arms around me
Put Your Arms Around Me Honey, hold me tight
Huddle up and cuddle up with all your might
Oh! Oh! Won´t you roll those eyes
Eyes that I will just always idolize
When they look at me, my heart begins to float
Then it starts a rockin´ like a motorboat
Oh! Oh! I never knew any girl like you
Put Your Arms Around Me Honey, hold me tight
Huddle up and cuddle up with all your might
Oh! Oh! Won´t you roll those eyes
Eyes that I will just always idolize
When they look at me, my heart begins to float
Then it starts a rockin´ like a motorboat
Oh! Oh! I never knew any girl like you
Girls like you

Over There
Lyrics
Song 11 - O-ver there
O-ver there, o-ver there, send the word, send the word, o-ver there,
That the Yanks are com-ing, the Yanks are com-ing,
The drums rum-tum-ming ev'-ry where
So pre-pare, say a prayer, send the word, send the word to be-
ware
That the Yanks are com-ing, the Yanks are com-ing,
The drums rum-tum-ming ev'-ry where
So pre-pare, say a prayer, send the word, send the word to be-
ware
We'll be o-ver, we're com-ing o-ver,
And we won't come back 'til it's o-ver O-ver There!
Music Interlude
O-ver there, o-ver there, send the word, send the word, o-ver there,
That the Yanks are com-ing, the Yanks are com-ing,
The drums rum-tum-ming ev'-ry where
So pre-pare, say a prayer, send the word, send the word to be-
ware
That the Yanks are com-ing, the Yanks are com-ing,
The drums rum-tum-ming ev'-ry where
So pre-pare, say a prayer, send the word, send the word to be-
ware
We'll be o-ver, we're com-ing o-ver,
And we won't come back 'til it's o-ver O-ver There!
We'll be o-ver, we're com-ing o-ver,
And we won't come back 'til it's o-ver O-ver There!
