SONGS
Song of my
Shoes
Tune: Battle
Hymn of the Republic
Mt. Diablo Silverado Council
This song was first in Baloo a few years ago, It instantly became a
favorite at our Roundtables. CD
My shoes have seen the glory of the growing of a Scout.
My shoes have been in water steppin' in and steppin' out.
My shoes have hiked through forest to the top of the
mount;
My shoes are wearing out!
Chorus
Groovy, Radical, and Awesome (repeat 3x)
My shoes are wearing out!
My shoes have seen the bottom of the dirty fishy creek,
My shoes have been all covered with the gooey, muddy
cake,
My shoes have seen the same old socks for seven days this
week,
My shoes do really stink!
Chorus
Groovy, Radical, and Awesome (repeat 3x)
My shoes do really stink!
My shoes are torn and tattered climbing fences packed in
rust,
My shoes are stained and spattered with some yucky insect
guts,
My shoes are oozing slime and fill my Mom with disgust,
My shoes have bit the dust!
Chorus
Groovy, Radical, and Awesome (repeat 3x)
My shoes have bit the dust!

The fun things in life,
Our family's delight!

That's why we're in Cub

We do our best,
To pass each test
(clap hands four times)
That's why we're in Cub

Just me and my son,
Work, play and have fun,

We think our pack's great,
We keep it first-rate;

That's why we're in Cub

SCOUTING SPIRIT
Sam Houston

(Tune: Catch a
Falling Star)
Catch the Scouting spirit
Put it in your heart
Never let it fade away.
Catch the Scouting spirit
Put it in your heart
Never let it fade away.
For someday soon you'll see
What's been accomplished
It will make you proud
And don't forget the fun
And fellowship there you'll
Get rewards beyond compare.
Catch the Scouting spirit
Put in it your heart
Never let it fade away.
GLAD I AM A
MEMBER OF THE CUB SCOUTS
Sam Houston
Area Council
(Tune: Oscar
Meyer Weiner Song)
Oh. 1'm glad I am a member of the Cub Scouts.
T hat is something that I'm proud to be.
And, since I am a member of the Cub Scouts,
Something great will surely
come to me.
Oh, 1 learn about the planet that I live on
And how I can help care for it each day.
The community around me 1'm exploring.
And, I find out how to live
the Scouting way.
I try to serve my God and serve my country,
And help out other people everyday.
I’ll follow my Akela on my journeys.
And always give Goodwill
along the way.
(Repeat first verse)
A SMILE IS
QUITE A FUNNY THING
Sam Houston
Area Council
(Tune: Auld
Lang Syne)
A smile is quite a funny thing.
It wrinkles up your face,
And when it's gone you never find
It's secret hiding place.
But far more wonderful it is
To see what smiles can do,
You smile at one, he smiles at you
And soon one smile makes
two.
He smiles at someone, since you smile,
And then that one smiles back,
And that one smiles until, in truth,
You fail in keeping track.
And since a smile can do great good
By cheering hearts of care,
Let's smile and not forget the fact
Those smiles go everywhere.
BE KIND TO
YOUR - SCOUTING FRIENDS
Sam Houston
Area Council

and Strips Forever)
Be kind to your -scouting friends.
That's a pledge from one Scouter to another.

`Cause by caring you follow Scouting's letter.
Scouting and friendship are grand,
And as we grow, the world will know,
We've made things better.
