1. Baby Songs Theme
Words: Martha Cheney / Music: Hap Palmer

It's a wonderful day to go out and play
Hey, maybe you could come along
All you need to bring is a song to sing
A happy little baby song

We can sing about friends
And the people we know
We can sing about the places we go
We can sing about the world
And the things that we see
We can sing about you and me

3. I Can Put My Clothes On By Myself
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Chorus:
I can put my clothes on by myself
I don't need help from anyone
I go through my drawer
And choose what I adore
Then proudly check the mirror when I'm done

So what if both my socks are not the same
I like getting dressed when I can choose
If one sock is white and red and one is blue instead
My feet will still stay warm inside my shoes

And when I wear orange pants with my green cap
You may think they clash with my pink shirt
But I might have a style
That helps the world to smile
And surely you'll agree that cannot hurt

Oh, I can put my clothes on by myself!
I don't need help from mom or dad
It takes more time I know
Right now I'm kind of slow
But taking time is really not so bad

'Tho I can't tie my shoes like brother can
It won't be long 'til I can do it too
'Tho I'm just learnin' how
I have no problem now
My velcro shoes will do just fine, thank you

So what if I wear winter clothes in spring
I'll just throw some off if I get hot
Who cares if I'm not dressed
the same as all the rest
On my block I'm still the proudest tot

Repeat Chorus

Yes, I can put my clothes on by myself!

4. Teddy Bear
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Fuzzy soft and furry, that's my teddy bear
Born without a worry or care
Never in a hurry, rushing everywhere
When I want to play, Teddy's there

Chorus:
I love to rub his chubby tummy
And hug his rolly polly body
When teddy cuddles close beside me
We always make each other happy
And when I toss him high above me
And catch him gently as a feather
I can almost hear his laughter
So glad that we can be together

When I get my toys out teddy always shares
Never fights or fusses "No fair!"
When my room's a clutter I know he won't care
Teddy bear's just glad to be there

Repeat Chorus

Never whines or whimpers when he topples down
Teddy smiles and waits 'til he's found
I dust him off and hug him, he's not hurt at all
He's my bouncy little fuzz ball!

Oh, what a miracle,
Every little part of me

They can bend and stretch, they can bend and stretch
Oh, what a miracle am I

6. Raggedy Rag Doll Friend
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Bright colored rag clothes
Buttons for eyes and nose
That's my raggedy rag doll friend

Filled with just cotton
Look at it floppin'
That's my raggedy rag doll friend

You ask me, how is it movin'?
Without some muscles and bones?
I just give it some lovin'
It comes alive and I'm never alone

Old fashioned dolly
Shufflin' so softly
Then laughin' and rollin' around in the rug

Tumblin' and twirlin'
My dolly goes whirlin'
Then lands in my lap for a nap and a hug

You ask me, how does that moonface
Keep smilin' year after year?
I guess all of my huggin'
Just keeps it grinnin' from ear to ear

You ask me, how is it movin'?
Without some muscles and bones?
I just give it some lovin'
It comes alive and I'm never alone

Repeat First Verse

7. Baby's First
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Chorus:
Oh my, baby's full of life!
Gettin' so excited she's about to burst
Think I know why it's so
Everything is baby's first

Baby's first ball, Baby's first doll
Baby's first bottle, Baby's first rattle
Baby's first stuffed bear, Baby's first high chair
Baby's first tub bath, Baby's first photograph --

Repeat Chorus

It's a bright new world of sights and sounds
Baby wants to see it can't keep her down
Crawlin' on the floor and everywhere explorin'
Baby loves to move around

Baby's first steps, Baby's first steps
Baby's first pets, Baby's first pets
Baby's first bubbles, Baby's first bubbles,
Baby's first scribbles,
Baby's first pickle, Baby's first tickle
Baby's first coos, Baby's first pair of shoes

Repeat Chorus

Everything is Baby's First!

8. Finger Foods
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Chorus:
Finger foods, finger foods
I pick 'em up and pop 'em in
Smoosh 'em on my cheeks and chin
Eat 'em with a happy grin
Finger foods, finger foods
When I'm in a hungry mood
Momma won't you please include
Some good old finger foods

What to you is one big mess
To me is total happiness
I love to touch and feel the things I eat
I pat 'em with my pudgy hand
Hopin' that you'll understand
As I grow I'll stay more clean and neat

Mash potatoes, crushed tomatoes
Apple bites and bits of meat
Globs and globs of cereal
There's so much good food to eat!

Repeat Chorus

I pinch 'em with my finger tips
To smack 'em in my hungry lips
Now don't go sayin' baby's bein' rude
When I press peas in my palm
Please don't panic, just stay calm
It's my way of learning about food

Jouncing, bouncing in my seat
Daddy ring the dinner chime
Plop those pieces on my plate
Every meal's a party time!

Repeat Chorus

9. Peek-A-Boo
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

Where is Sheila, where could she be?
She was here a moment ago
Where is Sheila, where could she be?
We've been looking high and low

Is she there behind the doll house quiet as a mouse?
Is she crouching in the toy box crafty as a fox?
Is she underneath the rug as cozy as a bug?
Oh where can Sheila be?

Chorus:
Peek-a-Boo, Where are you?
Come out from your hiding place
Peek-a-Boo, I see you!
It's good to see you're smilin',
Gee it's been awhile and
It's good to see your smilin' face

Where is Danny, where could he be?
He was here a moment ago
Where is Danny, where could he be?
We've been looking high and low

Is he underneath the chair all curled up like a bear?
Is he hiding in a cave just like a bat behaves?
Is he soaring through the skies just like and eagle flies?
Oh where can Danny be?

Repeat Chorus

Where are Jim and Janny, where could they be?
They were here a moment ago
Where are Jim and Janny, where could they be?
We've been looking high and low

Did they fly out of the room upon a witch's broom?
Did they wave a magic wand then suddenly they were gone?
Are they here but can't be seen like ghosts on Halloween?
Oh where can Jim and Janny be?

Repeat Chorus

10. Wash Rag Blues
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

If you can --
Get into the right frame of mind
You can have a real good time
Just takin' a bath with the
Boogie Woogie Wash Rag Blues

You just put a little rhythm in the scrub
Do a little splashin' in the tub
Put a tickle in your toes and a tingle on your nose
With the Boogie Woogie Wash Rag blues

And you can scrub a little wow in your eyebrows
And rub a little glow on your elbows
Then add a little grin to your cheeks and chin
And put a little zip in your hips

Then give a gentle squeeze to your knees
And put a little charm in your arms
Then linger for awhile on your fingers as you smile
With the Boogie Woogie Wash Rag Blues

Now put a little sparkle on your ankles
And scrub a little chuckle on your knuckles
Then rub a little bliss on your face and wrists
And any other place you might have missed

Then shine a little cheer on your ears
And put a little beat in your feet
And don't forget to check your stomach and your neck
With the Boogie Woogie Wash Rag Blues

Yeah the Boogie --
The Boogie Woogie Wash Rag Blues

11. Goodnight Story Time
Words and Music: Hap Palmer

When dinner time is over and day is almost gone
When I've had my bath and put my warm pajamas on
I run up to my shelf and look,
for my favorite storybook
Then cuddle up in Mommy's lap

We can say good night to the moon
Travel where the wild things are
Run away with bunny
Help Pooh Bear eat his honey
Or wish upon a star

In make-believe a magic seed
Grows a bean stalk we can climb
And a giant peach can fly
With seagulls in the sky
In Goodnight Story Time

We might meet Peter Rabbit running from the farmer
Or greet King Arthur's knights in shining armor
Spy on Rumpelstiltskin weaving straw to gold
In days of old gone by

Snuggled up in Daddy's arms
Reading tales and nursery rhymes
Where Little Bo-Peep's sheep
Lead me off to sleep
In Goodnight Story Time

We can sail the seven seas
Find an island anytime
Where birds fly down to nest
And seals swim in to rest
In Goodnight Story ...
Goodnight Story Time

14. Things We Like To Do
Words and Music by Hap Palmer

When you're bored and don't know what to do
Take a tip from us and listen to
The things we like to do
The games we like to play
The things we like to do
To brighten up our day

A lively game of tag is always fun to play
We chase or run around to get away
And if someone will count and promise not to peek
We can play a game of hide and seek

Empty cartons make a set of bowling pins
We roll a ball and knock 'em down to win
On rainy days we play a game of crazy eights
Or make a spooky mask with paper plate.

The things we like to do
The games we like to play
The things we like to do
To brighten up our day.

We take a box of baggy pants and worn out shoes
And funny hats that momma let up use
We prance around in gowns that grandma used to wear
And pretend together as we share

Repeat chorus

15. Put Your Hands Up In The Air
Words and Music by Hap Palmer

Put your hands up in the air
Put your hand down on your nose
Put your hand up in the air
Now bend down and touch your toes
Everyone turn around
Now let's all jump up and down.

Put your right hand in the air
Put your right hand on your lips
Put you left hand in the air
Now put both hand on your hips
Everybody turn around
Now let's al jump up and down

Tip tow quietly to your seat
Don't let anyone hear your feet
Put your hands down in your lap
Bow your head and take a nap.

16. Growing
Words and music by Hap Palmer

Chorus:
There are so many things that grow, grow, grow
So many things that grow, grow, grow
There are flowers and trees and chimpanzees
Mice and rats and little kitty cats
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots
Boys and girls all over the world

Now let’s start with a tiny little seed
That slowly grows and becomes a tree
And the little twigs and branches become big limbs
With leaves that sway and rustle in the wind
With leaves that sway and rustle in the wind

Repeat Chorus

There are so many things that grow, grow, grow
So many things that grow, grow, grow
There are flowers and trees and chimpanzees
Mice and rats and little kitty cats
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots
And boys and girls all over the world

Now we all started out as a tiny little baby
And we grew a little bit and then we could crawl
And we grew a little more and then we could walk
And we grew a little more and then we could talk
And we grew a little more
And we could run like the wind.

Repeat Chorus

There are so many things that grow, grow, grow
So many things that grow, grow, grow
There are flowers and trees and chimpanzees
Mice and rats and little kitty cats
There are monkeys and parrots, peas and carrots
And boys and girls all over the world

17. The Mice Go Marching
Words and Music by Hap Palmer

The mice go marching quietly by, shh! Shh!
The mice go marching quietly by, shh! Shh!
They march with softly clicking sounds
You hardly know that they're around
Oh the mice go marching quietly by, Shh!

The mighty monster marches by, Kaboom, kaboom!
The mighty monster marches by, Kaboom, kaboom!
With hairy legs and heavy feet
He cracks the pavement with each beat
And the mighty monster marches by, Kaboom!

The mice go marching up the monster, Dear, oh dear!
The mice go marching up the monster, Dear, oh dear!
They're stepping softly through his hair
So monster will not know they're there
Oh, the mice go marching up the monster, Dear!

The monster sneezes suddenly, Achoo, achoo!
The monster sneezes suddenly, Achoo, achoo!
He shakes and makes a thunderous sound
The mice fly off and tumble sown
When the monster sneezes suddenly, Achoo!

The mice all laugh and squeak, What fun, what fun!
The mice all laugh and squeak, What fun, what fun!
With tiny thumps they hit the ground
They slip and slide and toll around
And the mice all laugh and squeak, What fun, Tee hee!

18. You Can Do It
Words and music by Hap Palmer)

When your friends area up, skatin’ around
And you keep slippin’ and fallin’ down
Get back up! Don’t give up and quit
And in time you will find you can do it

When you swing and miss, remember that
Soon you’ll get another chance to bat
Watch that ball! Don’t give up and quit
And in time you will find you can do it

Keep on skatin’; give yourself time
Keep on swingin’ and you will find
You can do better than you did before
And nobody could ask for more

Y’got heart –
Y’got spunk –
Y’ got soul from head to toe
Y’got spark –
Y’got spirit –
You’re really great! Oh don’t you know

Words: Martha Cheney / Music: Hap Palmer

It's a wonderful day to go out and play
Hey, maybe you could come along
All you need to bring is a song to sing

And the things that we see
We can sing about you and me
