 
WHEREVER YOU GO, I LOVE YOU 2:45
CHORUS:
Wherever you go, whatever you do,
Through all the changes you go through,
I’ll be there right next to you; I love you.
When you’re too small to reach the sink,
So all you do is sit and think,
About how clean you would have been,
Know that I will love you then.
(CHORUS)
When you can button up your shirt,
And brush off your own dust and dirt,
When you can spell and write you name,
I will love you just the same.
(CHORUS)
When you try to cut your hair,
And leave the clippings everywhere,
And throw your hands up in the air,
I’ll hold you in this rocking chair.
(CHORUS)
When you crawl into your bed,
And on a pillow lay your head,
When you’re drifting off to sleep,
All my love is yours to keep.
(CHORUS)
I love you, I love you.

ANGELS WATCHING OVER ME 1:45
CHORUS:
All night, all day, angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day, angels watching over me.
Sun is a-setting in the West;
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Sleep my child, take your rest;
Angels watching over me.
(CHORUS twice)
Angels watching over me.
Angels watching over me.

They can laugh together, they can laugh.

RIVER 2:57
I was born in the path of the winter wind,
And raised where the mountains are old.
The springtime waters came dancing down;
I remember the tales they told.
CHORUS:
River, take me along, in your sunshine, sing me your song.
Ever moving and winding and free,
You rolling old river, you changing old river,
Let’s you and me, river, run down to the sea.
I’ve heard all the songs that the children sing,
And listened to love’s melodies,
I’ve felt my own music within me rise;
Like the wind in the autumn trees.
(CHORUS)
So here’s to the rainbow that followed me here,
And here’s to the friends that I know,
And here’s to the song that’s within me now;
I sing it wherever I go.
(CHORUS)

THE WATER IS WIDE 3:23
The water is wide; I can’t cross o’er,
And neither have I wings to fly.
Give me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row, my love and I.
A ship there is, she sails the sea,
She’s loaded deep, as deep can be.
But not so deep as the love I’m in;
I know not how I sink or swim.
I leaned my back against an oak,
Knowing it was a trusty tree.
At first it bent, but never broke;
Thus did my love prove true to me.
Oh, love is handsome, love is fine,
Gay as a jewel when first it’s new;
And love grows old, and ever bold,
And shines as bright as morning dew.

HOBO’S LULLABY 3:45
Don’t you worry ‘bout tomorrow,
Let tomorrow come and go;
Tonight you’re in a nice warm box car,
Safe from all the wind and snow.
Go to sleep, my weary hobo,
Let the towns drift slowly by.
Can’t you hear those steel rails hummin’?
That’s a hobo’s lullaby.
I know your clothes are torn and ragged;
You’ve been stayin’ out all day.
Lift your head and smile at trouble;
You’ll find peace and rest some day.
Go to sleep, my weary hobo,
Let the towns drift slowly by.
Can’t you hear those steel rails hummin’?
That’s a hobo’s lullaby.
Can’t you hear those steel rails hummin’?
That’s a hobo’s lullaby.
That’s a hobo’s lullaby.

SOMOS EL BARCO 3:14
The stream sings it to the river,
The river sings it to the sea,
The sea sings it to the boat
That carries you and me.
CHORUS:
Somos el barco, somos el mar,
Yo navego en ti, Tu navegas en mi.
We are the boat, we are the sea,
I sail in you, you sail in me.
Now the boat we are sailing in
Was built by many hands,
And the sea we are sailing on
Touches every land.
(CHORUS)
So with our hopes, we raise the sails
To face the winds once more,
And with our hearts we chart the waters,
Never sailed before.
(CHORUS)

Don’t worry ‘bout a thing,
‘Cause ev’ry little thing’s gonna be all right.
Singing don’t worry ‘bout a thing,

Three little birds sit by my doorstep singing sweet songs,
A melody sweet and pure, sing,
This is my message to you.
(Repeat CHORUS and verse)

WATCHING THE RIVER RUN 3:40
If you’ve been thinking you’re all that you’ve got,
Then don’t feel alone anymore,
‘Cause when we’re together, then you’ve got a lot,
For I am the river and you are the shore.
CHORUS:
And it goes on and on, watching the river run,
Further and further from things that we’ve done,
Leaving them one by one.
And we have just begun watching the river run;
List’ning and learning and yearning; run, river, run.
Winding and turning and dancing along,
We passed by the old willow tree,
Where friends embrace as we sing them our song,
Rejoicing together as we greet the sea.
(CHORUS twice)

TURN AROUND 3:06
Where are you going, my little one, little one,
Where are you going, my baby, my own?
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four,
Turn around, you’re a young girl going out of my door.
Turn around, turn around,
Turn around, you’re a young girl going out of my door.
Where are you going, my little one,little one?
Dirndls and petticoats, where have you gone?
Turn around and you’re tiny, turn around and you’re grown,
Turn around, you’re a young wife with babes of your own.
Turn around, turn around,
Turn around, you’re a young wife with babes of your own.
Where are you going, my little one, little one,
Where are you going, my darling, my own?
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four,
Turn around, you’re a young boy going out of my door.
Turn around, turn around,
Turn around, you’re a young boy going out of my door.

ROCK A LITTLE, BABY 2:22
Aunt Priscilla has a rocking chair,
Rock a little baby, rock.
She will show you if you ever go there,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Climb in the chair and away you go,
Rock a little baby, rock a lot;
You’ll be tickled from head to toe,
Rock a little baby, rock,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Aunt Priscilla has an old Ford car,
Rock a little baby, rock.
It will rock you but it won’t go far,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Climb in the car and away you go,
Rock a little baby, rock a lot;
You’ll be tickled from head to toe,
Rock a little baby, rock,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Aunt Priscilla has a Chesterfield,
Rock a little baby, rock.
The springs are good but the upholstery’s
peeled, Rock a little baby, rock.
Climb on the springs and away you go,
Rock a little baby, rock a lot;
You’ll be tickled from head to toe,
Rock a little baby, rock,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Aunt Priscilla has a featherbed,
Rock a little baby, rock.
You’ll be sleeping if you lay your head,
Rock a little baby, rock.
Climb on the bed and away you go,
Rock a little baby, rock a lot;
You’ll be sleeping from head to toe,
Rock a little baby, rock,
Rock a little baby, rock. Rock a little baby, rock.

DANNY BOY 3:11
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling,
From glen to glen and down the mountain side;
Summer’s gone, and all the flow’rs are dying;
‘Tis you, ‘tis you must go, and I must bide.
But come you back when summer’s in the meadow,
Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow;
‘Tis I’ll be there in sunshine or in shadow;
Danny boy, Oh Danny boy, I love you so.
And I shall hear, ‘though soft you tread around me,
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be,
If you will only tell me you love me,
Then I’ll sleep in peace, until you waken me.

TIME TO SLEEP 2:22
The games are played and the songs are sung,
The dinner is over and I’m in the tub.
I’d better hurry and get one more hug,
Before it’s time to sleep.
CHORUS:
Sleep, gonna close my eyes,
And sleep, ‘til it’s morning time;
Sleep, before it’s time to sleep.
I’ve had a drink of water and a story told,
I’ve got my blanket to keep me from the cold,
The light is out and the curtain’s pulled;
It’ll soon be time to sleep.
(CHORUS)
My Momma loves me that is plain to see,
My Daddy loves me sitting on his knee;
Their love grew and it encircles me,
And now it’s time to sleep.
(CHORUS twice)

WAIT ‘TIL THE MORNING 2:33
Such a lot of things to do;
I feel the same way, too;
So many things I did today,
So many more to do.
CHORUS:
But it can wait ‘til the morning comes,
When sleeping time is through;
Then the morning light will shine so bright,
And make the world seem new.
There’re friends to see and play with,
There’re songs and jokes and games,
There’re people that I ‘specially love,
And feel their love the same.
(CHORUS)
I saw the sky turn pink and red,
And a golden slice of moon;
Though the sun no longer shines right here,
It’ll be returning soon.
(CHORUS)

LITTLE FISH 2:12
The crew is asleep and the ocean’s at rest;
I’m singing this song to the ones I love best.
CHORUS:
Hey ho, little fish, good night, good night,
Hey ho, little fish, good night.
The anchor’s aweigh, and the weather is fine;
The captain’s on deck, waltzing in time.
(CHORUS)
You’ve been swimming all day, in the ocean so wide;
Now it’s time to rest, and float with the tide.
(CHORUS twice)
