Songs for Veterans Day

Here are some song for our Vets. Bless them all.

 

 

 

Over There

Johnnie, get your gun,
Get your gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run,
On the run, on the run.
Hear them calling, you and me,
Every son of liberty.
Hurry right away,
No delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad
To have had such a lad.
Tell your sweetheart not to pine,
To be proud her boy's in line.

Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word over there -
That the Yanks are coming,
The Yanks are coming,
The drums rum-tumming
Everywhere.
So prepare, say a prayer,
Send the word, send the word to beware.
We'll be over, we're coming over,
And we won't come back till it's over
Over there.

Johnnie, get your gun,
Get your gun, get your gun,
Johnnie show the Hun
Who's a son of a gun.
Hoist the flag and let her fly,
Yankee Doodle do or die.
Pack your little kit,
Show your grit, do your bit.
Yankee to the ranks,
From the towns and the tanks.
Make your mother proud of you,
And the old Red, White and Blue.

Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word over there -
That the Yanks are coming,
The Yanks are coming,
The drums rum-tumming
Everywhere.
So prepare, say a prayer,
Send the word, send the word to beware.
We'll be over, we're coming over,
And we won't come back till it's over
Over there.

The Star Spangled Banner

By Francis Scott Key 1814

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Samhain Chant

Fire red, summer's dead
Yet it shall return.
Clear and bright, in the night,
Burn, fire, burn!

Chorus:
Dance the ring, luck to bring,
When the year's a-turninng.
Chant the rhyme at Hallows-time,
When the fire's burning.


Fire glow, vision show
Of the heart's desire,
When the spell's chanted well
Of the witching fire.

Chorus:
Dance the ring, luck to bring,
When the year's a-turninng.
Chant the rhyme at Hallows-time,
When the fire's burning.

Fire spark, when nights are dark
Makes our winter's mirth.
Red leaves fall, earth takes all,
Brings them to rebirth.

Chorus:
Dance the ring, luck to bring,
When the year's a-turninng.
Chant the rhyme at Hallows-time,
When the fire's burning.

Fire fair, earth and air,
And the heaven's rain,
All blessed be, and so may we,
at Hallows-tide again.

Chorus:
Dance the ring, luck to bring,
When the year's a-turninng.
Chant the rhyme at Hallows-time,
When the fire's burning.

Down swooped the bats

One ghost said to the other "I'm going home and stay with my mother."
One little ghost can't have much fun, so he ran home , then there were none.

I told the witch doctor I was in love with you

The Monster Mash By Bobby "Boris" Pickett

 

 I was working in the lab, late one night.

When my eyes beheld an eerie sight,

and my monster from the slab began to rise

and suddenly to my surprise.

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

The monster mash.

It was a graveyard smash

He did the mash.

It caught on in a flash

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

From my laboratory in the castle east,

to the master bedroom, where the vampires feast.

The ghouls all came from their humble abode, to

get a jolt from my electrodes.

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

The monster mash.

It was a graveyard smash

He did the mash.

It caught on in a flash

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

The Zombies were having fun, the party had just begun.

The guests included Wolfman, Dracula and his Son.

The scene was rocking, all were digging sounds

Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds.

The coffin baggers, were about to arrive with their

vocal group, The "Crypt Kicker Five."

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

The monster mash.

It was a graveyard smash

He did the mash.

It caught on in a flash

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring.

Seems he was troubled by just one thing.

He opened the lid and shook his fist, and said,

"What ever happened to the Transylvania Twist?"

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

The monster mash.

It was a graveyard smash

He did the mash.

It caught on in a flash

He did the mash.

He did the monster mash.

Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band, and

my Monster Mash is the hit of the land. For you the living,

this mash was meant too. When you get to my door, tell

them Boris sent you!

Then you can Mash.......

Then you can monster mash

Then you can Mash.......

Then you can monster mash

Then you can Mash.......

Then you can monster mash

 

 

 

The Impossible Dream (The Quest)

 

From Man of LaMancha
Lyrics by Joe Darion

To dream ... the impossible dream ...
To fight ... the unbeatable foe ...
To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ...
To run ... where the brave dare not go ...
To right ... the unrightable wrong ...
To love ... pure and chaste from afar ...
To try ... when your arms are too weary ...
To reach ... the unreachable star ...

This is my quest, to follow that star ...
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far ...
To fight for the right, without question or pause ...
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause ...

And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm,
when I'm laid to my rest ...
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach ... the unreachable star ...

Samhain Songs

WE GATHER ON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR
(Sung to the tune of "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear") 

We gather on a midnight clear
To sing the songs of old
Of Spirits rising from the Earth
To touch our hearts so bold 

Fear not! On this most holy night
When veils are thin and clear
Our hearts in solemn stillness lay
To hear ancestors dear 

We lay the circle round about
With offerings of love
We know that in the darkest hour
We're blessed from up above 

Rejoice! The New Year's come again
The Wheel it spins once more
Hears full of peace and joy, we seek
The opening of new doors

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE SAMHAIN
(Sung to the tune of "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas") 

It's beginning to look a lot like Samhain everywhere you turn
Take a look at that grove of trees They're beginning to turn their leaves
With all those fiery reds they fairly burn 

It's beginning to look a lot like Samhain everywhere it beams
With witches in windows here and bobbing for apples there
If we could only tell them what it means 

It's beginning to look a lot like Samhain Sing the ancient lore...
But the loveliest sight to see
Is the cauldron that will be by our own front door!

MERRY MEET...
(Sung to the tune of "Jingle Bells")

Merry Meet, Merry Meet, Merry Meet and Part,
This you know, our blessings go, With each and every heart. 

Dashing to the house to start the meeting right. Lilith took a nap, and so she looks a fright. The offerings are set there's wine and bread and meat Grollwynn takes one look and says "Hey, when do we eat?" 

Ohhhhh....
Merry Meet, Merry Meet, Merry Meet and Part,
This you know, our blessings go, With each and every heart. 

Sara worked all day, and so she falls asleep we dress her up like Cerridwen put the cauldron at her feet. Onyx can't be found a familiar hum is heard He's killing things in Doom again and so hears not a word! 

Ohhhhh....
Merry Meet, Merry Meet, Merry Meet and Part,
This you know, our blessings go, With each and every heart. 

At last we gather round to toast and bless and cheer. We know we've done our best through this cycle of the year. We use our voice for good in these pages that we write We thank Goddess and the God and you... and now we say goodnight!

Ohhhhh....
Merry Meet, Merry Meet, Merry Meet and Part,
This you know, our blessings go, With each and every heart.

Halloween Carols

The First Halloween

The First Halloween
The parents did scream
At the children in costumes
Who stole all the treats.

"Go away, go away!"
The spirits did say.
"You're taking our business,
So come back in May!"





 

It’s Halloween

 

It's Halloween The lamp is lit

around the fire we children sit

telling ghost stories bit by bit

Till sister Jane says SHHHHH.

What's that screaming to the break of day......

(Pause then) IT'S A GOBLIN!
