SONGS

Call A Scout
(Tune: If You're Happy and You Know It)
Simon Kenton Council

When you're down and feeling blue
CALL A SCOUT
They'll know just what to do
CALL A SCOUT
If you're ever in a hurry
Don't take the time to worry
All you have to do is shout
CALL A SCOUT

If you need a helping hand
CALL A SCOUT
They'll take your garbage out
CALL A SCOUT
If the traffic that you meet
Has you scared to cross the street
They'll be there to help you out
CALL A SCOUT

Now the Scouts are always helpful
Don't you see
They will lend a helping hand
To you and me
For they're wise in what they do
They are kind and cheerful too
And they always help you out
CALL A SCOUT

The Gutenberg of Old
Tune: The Grand Old Duke of York
(revised a bit--Chris)

The Gutenberg of old,
He had 10,000 books,
He stacked the up the shelves, (stand)
And he knocked them down again. (sit)
And when they're up you're up. (stand)
And when they're down you're down (sit)
And when they're only halfway up, (squat)
You're neither up nor down.

Sing three times a little faster

Turkey
San Francisco Bay
(Tune: America)

My turkey, 'tis of thee,
Sweet bird with gravy,
Of thee I sing.
I love thy breast and wings,
Back, legs and other things,
I love thy sweet stuffing,
All But the neck.
