1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

I'm a little baby one day old
I'm a little sweet thing two days old
I'm a little doodlebug 3 days old
I'm a little cutie pie 4 days old

It's 1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

I'm a little baby 5 days old
I'm a little chipmunk 6 days old
I'm a little jay-bird 7 days old
And I'm a little angel 8 days old

It's 1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

I'm a little baby 9 days old
I'm a little kitty cat 10 days old
I'm a little flower 11 days old
And I'm a little sugar-plum 12 days old

It's 1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

I'm a little baby a few days old
I'm a little snick-snack some days old
I'm a little jabber-talker 11 days old
And I'm a little butterfly one minute old

It's 1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

1 day 2 days 3 days old
4 days 5 days 6 days old
7 days 8 days 9 days old
10 days 20 days no days old

Why can't a dish break a hammer?
Why oh why oh why?!
'Cause a hammer's a hard head.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

Why, oh why, oh why oh, why?
Why, oh why, oh why?
Because because because because
Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why can't a bird eat an elephant?
Why, oh why, oh why?
'Cause an elephant's got a pretty hard skin.
Goodby goodbye goodbye.

Why can't a mouse eat a streetcar?
Why, oh why, oh why?
'Cause a mouse's stomach could never get big enough to hold a streetcar.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

Why does a horn make music?
Why, oh why, oh why?
Because the horn-blower blows it.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Why does a cow drink water?
Tell me why n why?
Because the cow gets thirsty just like you or me or anybody else.
Goodye goodbye goodbye.

Why don't you answer my questions?
Why, oh why, oh why?
'Cause I don't know the answers.
Goodby goodbye goodbye.

What make the landlord take money?
Why, oh why, oh why?
I don't know that one myself.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

Why's there no pennies for ice cream
Why, oh why, oh why?
You put all the pennies in the telephone.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

Why can't a rabbit chase an eagle?
Tell me why, oh why?
'Cause the last rabbit that took out and chased after an eagle didn't come
out so good and that's why rabbits don't chase after eagles that's all I
know about rabbits and eagles?
Because because because.

Why ain't my grandpa my grandma?
Why, oh why, oh why?
Same reason your dad's not your mommy.
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

Why couldn't the wind blow backwards?
Why, oh why, oh why?
'Cause it might backfire and hurt somebody and if it
hurt somebody it'd keep on hurting them
Goodbye goodbye goodbye.

“Pick It Up” from Songs to Grow On for Mother and Child

I dropped my thumb, pick it up, pick it up (x3)
And put it back with my fingers

I dropped my candy, pick it up, pick it up (x3)
And throw it away in the garbage

Pick, pick, pick, pick it up, pick it up (x4)

I dropped my dolly, pick it up, pick it up (x3)
And lay her down in her cradle

I dropped my shoe, pick it up, pick it up (x3)
And put it with my other shoe

I dropped my head, pick it up, pick it up (x3)
And put it back on my shoulders

Pick, pick, pick, pick it up, pick it up (x8)

Needle Sing

[No lyrics]

. . .


You get a hammer and I'll get a nail
And you catch a bird and I'll catch a snail
You bring a board and I'll bring a saw
And we'll build a house for the baby-o

CHORUS
Bling, Blang, hammer with my hammer
Zingo, Zango, cutting with my saw
Bling, Blang, hammer with my hammer
Zingo, Zango, cutting with my saw

I'll grab some mud and you grab some clay
So when it rains it won't wash away
We'll build a house that'll be so strong
The winds will sing my baby a song

CHORUS

Run bring rocks and I'll bring bricks
A nice pretty house we'll build and fix
We'll jump inside when the cold wind blows
And kiss our little baby-o

CHORUS

You bring a ladder and I'll get a box
Build our house of bricks and blocks
When the snowbird flies and the honeybee comes
We'll feed our baby on honey in the comb

CHORUS

. . .

Goodnight Little Arlo (Goodnight Little Darlin')
