Welcome to my humble page. It is here to help people with songs to sing with children of all ages. I will add songs as much as posible but for now its sort-of empty. I have several other web pages that will be linked to here later on. Thanks for vistitng, please come again, chances are it won't be the same.
Well, I'm back from camp now. I have about 30 new songs from songbooks to post. Also, on a note(no pun intended) I'm starting to record the songs and will be posting them up here. This is so you can get a general tune for the song. Thanks to all the people who visited, emailed me, or just saw my name somewhere. -Fran

This is a list of the songs I currently have. The link sends you to a page that has that individual song on it, they are all listed below in the order that they appear on the list. Also here, by request is an easily printed copy of all the songs.

On My Honor:
On my honor I will try There's a duty to be done, and I say "Aye" There's a reason here for the reason above My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
People don't need to know my name If I've done any harm then I'm to blame If I've helped another then I've helped me And I've opened up my eyes to see.
On my honor I will try There's a duty to be done, and I say "Aye" There's a reason here for the reason above My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
I've tucked away a song or two If you're feeling low, there's one for you If you need a friend, then I will come And there's many more where I come from.
On my honor I will try There's a duty to be done, and I say "Aye" There's a reason here for the reason above My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
Come with me where the fire burns bright We can see even better by a candle's light We'll find more meaning in a campfire's glow Than we've ever learned in a year or so.
On my honor I will try There's a duty to be done, and I say "Aye" There's a reason here for the reson above My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
We've made a promise to always keep And pray softly fall before we sleep We'll be Girl Scouts together and when we're gone They'll still be trying and singing this song.
On my honor I will try There's a duty to be done, and I say "Aye" There's a reason Here for the reason above My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
Titanic: Oh they built the ship Titanic to sail the ocean blue, and they thought they had a ship that the water wouldn't go through, but the good lord raised his hand, said "The ship would never land". It was sad when the great ship went down, down, down.
Refrain: It was (1)sad (2)so sad, It was (1)sad (2)alleluia, It was sad when the great ship went down to the bottom of (1)the sea (2)Uncles and aunts little childern lost their parents, It was sad when the great ship went down, down, down.They were nearing to the shore, when the water began to pour. And the rich refused to associate with the poor, so they sent them down below where they'd the the first to go. It was sad when the great ship went down, down, down.
Refrain Lady Astor turned around just to see her husband drown, as the ship Titanic made a gurgling sound. So she wraped herself in mink, as the ship beagan to sink. It was sad when the great ship when down, down, down.
Refrain Now the moral of the story is very plain to see, you should wear a life perserver when you go out to sea. The Titanic never made it and never more shall be. It was sad when the great ship went down, down, down.
Kerplunk, it sunk to the bottom of the sea(hold sea for length of normal refrain)

The Fishy Song:
Have you ever gone fishing on a bright and sunny day, With all the little fishys swimming up and down the bay, With their hands in their pockets, And their pockets in their pants, All the little fishys do the hochy-cuchy dance. Da dat, da dat da, da dat da dah, Da dat, da dat da, da dat da dah, With their hands in their pockets, And their pockets in their pants, All the little fishys do the hochy-cuchy dance.
Make New Friends:
Make new friends, But keep the old, One is silver, And the other gold.
A circle's round, It has no end, Thats how long, I want to be your friend,
You hold me, And I'll hold you, Then together, We will make it through.
I have a hand, And you have another, Put them together, And we have each other.
Sew good friends, Wherever you may roam, You'll be welcome, In my heart and home.
A fire burns bright, It warms the heart, We've been friends Right from the very start.
New made friends, Like new made wine Grow and mature, To the end of the time.
Friends like you, Are one of a kind, Very special, And hard to find.
Friends are real, And friends are true, If you love them, They will love you too.
Cherish friendship, In your breast New is good, But old is best.
Across the miles, Across the sea Friends forever, We will always be.
Hunk of Tin:
I'm a little hunk of tin, Nobody knows what shape I'm in, I've got four wheels and a running board, I'm not Chevy, and I'm no Ford,
Honk honk, rattle rattle, crash, beep beep Honk honk, rattle rattle, crash, beep beep Honk honk.
The Bear Song:
This is a repeat song, The other day, I met a bear, Out in the woods, A way out there.
The other day I met a bear, Out in the woods a way out there.
He looked at me, I looked at him, He sized up me, I sized up him.
He looked at me I looked at him, He sized up me I sized up him,
He said to me, Why don't you run, I see you ain't, Got any gun,
He said to me why don't you run? I see you ain't got any gun.
And so I ran, Away from there, But right behind, Me was that bear.
And so I ran right out of there, But right behind me was that bear.
Ahead of me, There was a tree, A great big tree, Oh, glory me.
Ahead of me there was a tree, A great big tree oh glory me.
The lowest branch,
