Cookies, Cookies
Listen while we sing to you!
Cookies, Cookies
You’re a part of Camp Fire too!
Anyone can make a bed,
Anyone can sweep.
But it takes our cookies to make us things to eat
So, cookies, cookies!
Listen while we sing to you.
We thank you very kindly for the good, good food.
Oh, we thank you very kindly for the good, good [...]

Jell-O Song

Oh, the big red letters stand for the Jell-O family.
Oh, the big red letters stand for the Jell-O family.
It’s Jell-O! yum, yum, yum
Jell-O pudding! yum, yum, yum
Jell-O tapioca!
Better try all three!

Mountain Dew

(Chorus) Oh they call it that good old mountain dew
And them that refuse it are few (mighty few)
I’ll hush up my mug if you fill up my jug
With that good old mountain dew
My brother Bill
Has a still on the hill
Where he runs off a gallon or two
The buzzards in the sky
Got so drunk they cannot [...]

Recessional

Go we forth from our council fire
Into the night, into the night.
In our hearts renewed desire
Burning bright, burning bright.
Loveliness of thought we’ve found,
warmth and friendship’s love.
Forest stillness closes ’round
Sky and stars above.
Blend into the mystic call
Wo-He-Lo, Wo-He-Lo.
May Wokanda’s blessing fall
upon us as we go.

Processional

We come, we come to our council fire
with measured tread and slow
To light the fire of our desire
To light the fire of Wo-He-Lo.
Wo-He-Lo, Wo-He-Lo.
The little twinkling stars on high
Are whispering nature’s lore,
While all around us the soft winds sigh
And Great Wokanda watches o’er.
Wo-He-Lo, Wo-He-Lo.

Riggety Jig

Riggety jig and away we go,
Away we go, away we go.
Riggety jig and away we go,
Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho!
We were starved as starved could be,
And now we’ve had too much to eat,
So riggety jig and away we go,
Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho!
*sung in Teal after a meal, and continued until [...]

Way Up in the Sky

Way up in the sky
the little birds fly
way down in the nest,
the little birds rest.
With a wing on the left
And a wing on the right
The little birds sleep
All thru the night
SHHH!! (quiet)
They’re sleeping (really loud)
The bright sun comes up,
the dew falls away,
“Good morning, good morning!”
the little birds say.

Spider’s Web

Down in the valley,
There is a mission,
Down by the old oak tree.
Down by the mission,
There is a fountain,
Where my love told me:
There’s a web like a spider’s web,
Made of silver light and shadows,
Spun by the moon in my room at night.
It’s a web made to catch a dream,
Hold it tight ‘til I [...]
