English Version

Proudly the rain on the cliffs
Creeps into the forest
Seeking the buds
And miniature lehua flowers of the uplands.

Chorus:
Farewell to thee, farewell to thee
O fragrance in the blue depths.
One fond embrace and I leave
To meet again.

Chorus

Sweet memories come
Sound softly in my heart.
You are my beloved sweetheart
Felt within.

Chorus

I understand the beauty
Of rose blossoms at Mauna-wili.
There the birds delight
To the beauty of this flower.

Chorus

Superwavehawaiiansurfer
Great Salt Lake Council
Tune: Supercalifragilsticexpialidocious

Superwavehawaiiansurfer, expert of the ocean.
Even though the most of them
Do not use suntan lotion.
When they hit the waves too hard
They always cause a motion.
Superwavehawaiiansurfer, expert of the ocean.

Um diddle diddle diddle, um diddlelie,
Um diddle diddle diddle, um diddlelie.

Because I was afraid to surf
When I was just a lad,
My father took my board away
And told me I was bad.
But then one day I learned the word
That everybody knows,
The biggest word you’ve ever heard
And this is how it goes…

Superwavehawaiiansurfer, expert of the ocean.
Even though the most of them
Do not use suntan lotion.
When they hit the waves too hard
They always cause a motion.
Superwavehawaiiansurfer, expert of the ocean!

I'm Going To Teach You How To Do The Hula
San Gabriel Valley-Long Beach Area-Laguna Hills Councils

Recordings: Memories of Hawaii Calls
Vol. 1 Hawaii Calls CDHCS-928 CD:

We'll teach you the hula
Come on, it's easy to learn
You get your feet moving sideways
And then you make a little turn

And now we're going around the island
Be careful to take it slow
'Cause when you're going around the island
You've got a long, long way to go

Now watch me closely
This is how the wind moves through the trees
Watch while I show you
The way the fishes swim beneath the sea

I'm going to teach you the hula
And now I'll show you the moon
Come on, it's easy to do the hula
You'll be doing it soon

Hawaiian Chant
St Louis Area Council

There's a funny little sunny little melody ch-ch-ch
That was started by the natives down in wy-ki-ki ch-ch-ch
Like a tropical storm down beside the sea ch-ch-ch

Chorus – Yell “Hit It!!” Then all sing -
Ti-I-I-dal wa-a-a-ave ti-I-I-dal ooo-nawa-ne-a (uh)
Ti-I-I-dal wa-aa-ave ti-I-I-dal ooo-na-wa-ne-a (uh)

Well the little native girls they started singing it ch-ch-ch
And the little native boys they started swinging it ch-ch-ch
Like a tropical storm down beside the sea ch-ch-ch
Funny little fun Hawaiian chant ch-ch-ch

Repeat Chorus:

My Little Grass Shack in Kealakekua Hawaii
San Gabriel Valley-Long Beach Area-Laguna Hills Councils

Listen to it here –
www.joanncastle.com/tracks/m.html#grass
by Bill Cogswell, Tommy Harrison & Johnny Noble

I want to go back to little grass shack
In Kealakekua, Hawaii
I want to be with all the kanes and wahines
That I used to know long ago

I can hear the old guitars playing
On the beach at Honaunau
I can hear the old Hawaiians saying
Komo mai no kaua i ka hale welakahao

It won't be long till my ship will be sailing
Back to Kona
A grand old place
That's always fair to see, you're telling me

I'm just a little Hawaiian
A homesick island boy
I want to go back to my fish and poi

I want to go back to my little grass shack
In Kealakekua, Hawaii
Where the humuhumunukunukuapua'a
Go swimming by

Going to Hawaii
St Louis Area Council
Tune: I’m a Little Teapot

I’m going to Hawaii, what fun for me!
Going to the island in the middle of the sea.
I can dive and surf and fish and swim,
Swimming in the ocean, making new friends.

I’m going to Hawaii, look at me!
Climbing to the top of volcanoes— Wh-e-e-e-e!
Picking coconuts from atop a tree,
Pineapples, mangos, what a treat!

I’m going to Hawaii, oh what a day!
Learning the hula so I can swish and sway.
Aloha means hello and goodbye, too.
So I’ll end my song saying aloha to you.

Hawaiian Punch
St Louis Area Council
Sung to the tune of the Brady Bunch

Here's the story of a dole banana.
Who was raising three very lovely fruits.
Each of them had peels of gold.
The youngest one was green

Here's the story of a ripe papaya.
Who was busy with three fruits of its own.
There were four fruits living in the same tree,

But they were all alone

Until one day when banana met papaya,
And they knew that they were much more than a bunch.
Yes, this crew would somehow form a fruit drink.
That's the way they became Hawaiian Punch!
Hawaiian Punch, Hawaiian Punch!
That's the way they became Hawaiian Punch!

Five Little Tuna Fish
San Gabriel Valley-Long Beach Area-Laguna Hills Councils

Five little tunafish
Swimmin' near the shore,
One got caught
And then there were four.

Chorus:
Tunafish, tunafish,
Happy all day,
Tunafish, tunafish,
Swim, swim away

Four little tunafish
Swimmin' in the sea,
One met a shark
And then there were three.

Chorus:

Three little tunafish
In the ocean blue,
One went for lunch
And then there were two.

Chorus:

Two little tunafish
Soakin' in the sun,
One got fried
And then there was one.

Chorus:

One little tunafish
Found himself a job,
He got canned
And then there were none.

Chorus:

Three Blind Sharks
San Gabriel Valley-Long Beach Area-Laguna Hills Councils
Lyrics by Julie Byler Carlson
Tune: Three Blind Mice

Sing in a round

Three Blind Sharks
Three Blind Sharks
See how they swim
See how they swim
They all swam after the Chieftains wife
She hit them in the nose with all her might
Have you ever seen such a sight in your life
As Three Blind Sharks

TRADITIONAL CUB SCOUT AND
BLUE AND GOLD FAVORITES

Blue and Gold Family
Tune: Clementine

Boys:    We’re the Cub Scouts.

Adults:          We’re the parents

All:      Here we are, both young and old.
Altogether we’re a Cub Pack
Having fun at Blue and Gold.

Boys:    We’re the Bobcats
Wolf and Bear Cubs
And the Webelos are we.
Altogether we’re a Cub Pack
Having fun in harmony.

Adults:             We’re the mothers.
We’re the fathers.
Helping Cub Scouts as they go
Up the ladder of achievement
Climbing higher as they grow.

All:      Let’s give thanks on this occasion
To the mighty Gold and Blue.
Pack _________ is the number
Representing me and you.

Blue and Gold Tradition
Tune: Jingle Bells

While dashing all around
To prepare for Blue and Gold,
The boys made napkin rings
And place mats to behold.
The nut cups, they were neat.
The nametags were just right.
Oh, what fun it is to have a
Blue and Gold tonight.

Chorus:
Blue and Gold, Blue and Gold
Banquet time again.
Families gathered all around
Ready to pitch in.

Fried chicken and baked beans,
Potato salad, too,
A piece of birthday cake
Enough for me and you.
Some people ate too much,
But we enjoyed the meal.
The friendship that was there
Was warm and true and real

Chorus

Blue and Gold
Tune: Michael Row the Boat Ashore

We are true to the Gold and Blue, Hallelujah
We are true to the Gold and Blue, Hallelujah

The sun is gold and the sky is blue, Hallelujah
The sun is gold and the sky is blue, Hallelujah

Cubs are bright and Cubs are true, Hallelujah
Cubs are bright and Cubs are true, Hallelujah

The Cub Scout Pack
Sam Houston Area Council
Tune: Grand Old Flag

We’re a Cub Scout Pack
We’re a high flying Pack
Down the trail of Akela we go,
From Tiger Cubs to Webelos
As into good Boy Scouts we grow.
Ev’ry Cub is true to the gold and the blue
And he never forgets the fact
That all the fun a boy could want
he can find in a Cub Scout Pack.

Be A Good Scout
San Gabriel Valley, Long Beach & Verdugo Hills Councils

Be a good Scout, and always wear a smile,
Be a good Scout, be cheerful all the while,
It's the creed, yes indeed, that a Scout must practice gaily,

Help those in need--do a Good Turn daily,
Be a good Scout--be Loyal, Clean land brave,
Never say die, just let your banner wave,
On your honor, do your best
When they put you to the test.
And always be a good scout.

Be Your Best
San Gabriel Valley, Long Beach & Verdugo Hills Councils
Tune "Be Our Guest"

Be your best, be your best,
Put your body to the test.
Stretch your muscles, raise your heart rate,
And then you take a rest.

Eat good food, stay alive,
Of fruits and vegetables eat five.
Every day you need to eat them;
There is nothing that will beat them.

Brush your teeth, clean your face,
Why don't you join the human race.
You'll enjoy it when you know you look your best.
Come on and get the lead out,
Raise your chin and then shout,
Be your best, be your best, be your best!
