Hey, Look Us Over

(Tune: Hey, Look Me Over)

Heart of America Council

Hey look us over, lend us an ear,
Watch us advance in Scouting every year.
First we are Bobcats, then we're Tiger Cubs
Soon we're Wolves and we'll go on from there (singing)

Hey look us over, lend us an ear,
Bear Cubs are next and we want to make it clear
Then its WEBELOS as we earn our arrow,
Soon we are Boy Scouts and we are on the run, (singing)

Hey look us over, lend us an ear,
Join us in a song and sing out loud and clear,
That Cub Scout advancement is the way to grow,
Stand back parents, here we go!

Home In Our Pack

Southern NJ Council

(Tune:  Home On The Range)

Oh, here is our home

Where the Webelos roam,

And the Tigers and Bobcats all play.

The Bears on the prowl

Make the Wolves give a howl,

And our leaders all work for no pay.

Home, home in our Pack

We are earning the ranks that we lack.

Akela, we hear,

Has planned a great year

And we’re happy to welcome you back.

Hello

Wherever I may go.

And good cheer

And warms the heart up so.

Like friends let's greet

Each other with Hello.

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello,

Hello, Hello, Hello.

Each other with Hello.

Hurrah, hurrah.

And lots of games, just take your pick

Oh, we’ll all be glad ‘cause

The Cub Scout Fair came to town.

There’s No Business Like Cub Business

Circle 10 Council

Tune: There’s No Business Like Show Business

There’s no Cub Scouts like our Cub Scouts,
‘Cause our pack is the best!
Everything we’re doing shows we’re eager,
Working on the skits and games and songs,
Planning with our leader to have you,
Look us over!
We're having fun!
There’s no Cub Scouts like our Cub Scouts.
We smile each time we meet!
Even when we’re nervous we will do our best,
And we hope our families will do the rest!
So you see in Cub Scouts we have passed the test!
Let’s go, on with our show!

Be Kind To Your Scouting Friends

Southern NJ Council

Tune: Stars and Stripes Forever

Be kind to your Scouting friends,
That's a pledge from one Scout to another.
Be kind to your leaders today,
'Cause for helping they don't get any pay.
Be kind to your neighbors and friends,
'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.
