COWBOYS REVERIE
Give me a camp fire
Down by a mountain stream
And let me sit and dream of days gone by.
Give me a mellow moon Up in a summer sky And let my memory fly,
To haunts I love.
Let me ride across the rolling plain
Let me meet my old pals once again
And in the camp fire?s glow
Folks that I used to know
Smile back at me, waking me from my reverie.
SONG OF THE GIRL SCOUTS
As you bend the twig, so the tree will grow And old and true saying, as well we know.
So being a Girl Scout, the job is begun A toast to each and every one.
Be kind to each other, be free with your smile Be gentle and thoughtful it makes life worth while.
So God bless the girl scouts where ever they be In this wonderful land, of the brave and the free.
MINUET OF THE SUNBEAMS
Come into my cottage, pretty sunbeams Dance a minuet around the floor You are sure to see, there will always be A friendly welcome at my cottage door While the birds out side are sweetly singing My! I wonder who could ask for me There?s a million sunbeams softly dancing A merrily around my cottage floor.

SONGS OF THE HILLS AND THE PLAINS RAINBOW VALLEY
I?m headed for Rainbow valley, long the old Chisolm trail To a sweet little shack that is calling me back Down in Rainbow? valley
I love the folks in Rainbow Valley, because their hearts are kind and true That?s why I?m headed back to that sweet little shack
