| I Don't Want to Live on the Moon | Composed by Shawn Colvin, who wrote and sang this as a duet with Kermit on Sesame Street. It’s a sweet “No Place Like Home” song. |
| Dead Skunk | Loundin Wainwright III wrote this as a joke. It’s a good reminder about the dangers of traffic! Careful, kids!! |
| The More We Get Together | A song by Raffi. Listen for your name. |
| Boy Named Sue | Here’s a Johnny Cash tune that children keep asking me to play. Actually, I think it’s really written for parents. |
| Row, Row, Row Your Boat | The third verse is a variation created by a kid we know. This song is recorded as “a round” where one singer starts a verse while the others are in the middle of singing it. Listen carefully to how that works, then sing along. |
| Ain't Gonna Rain No More | This is a truly weird one. I learned it from my dad, who learned it from my grandma. I kept running into it in different contexts…it just pops up where I least expect it. The part about the roaches is actually a different song, but it seemed to fit so I wove them together. |
| Fruitbat Father's Day song |
