For Lawrence we stand,
It is the best camp in the land.
Loyal and true,
Are the boys of White and Blue.
And when the game is at its height,
You’ll see them fight with all their might.
Three cheers for Lawrence Camp,
And for its spirit and its might.
Rah!, Rah!, Rah!
For Lawrence we stand,
It is the best camp in the land.
Loyal and true,
Are the boys of White and Blue.
And when the sun is sinking low,
Then you’ll see the campfires glow.
Three cheers for Lawrence Camp,
And for its spirit and its might.
Rah!, Rah!, Rah!
L-A-W-R-E-N-C-E, Boom!
Lawrence, our Lawrence,
We’ll sing to thee.
Fairest of summer camps,
Give her the three times three.
Oh!, fellows, long may we cherish her,
Faithful we’ll be.
Lawrence, our Lawrence,
For you and for me.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Up in my head, up in my head, up in my head.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Up in my head, up in my head to stay.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Down in my feet, down in my feet, down in my feet.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Down in my feet, down in my feet to stay.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Deep in my heart, deep in my heart, deep in my heart.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Deep in my heart, deep in my heart to stay.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
Up in my head, down in my feet, deep in my heart.
I’ve got that William Lawrence Spirit,
All over me, all over me to stay.
CHORUS
All things bright and beautiful.
All creatures great and small.
All things wise and wonderful.
The Lord, God, made them all.
Each little flower that opens.
Each little bird that sings.
He made their glowing colors.
He made their tiny wings.
CHORUS
The purple-headed mountain.
The river running by.
The sunset in the morning.
That brightens up the sky.
CHORUS
The cold wind in the winter.
The pleasant summer sun.
The ripe fruits in the garden.
He made them every one.
CHORUS
My country, ’tis of thee,
sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing;
land where my fathers died,
land of the pilgrims’ pride,
from every mountainside let freedom ring!
My native country, thee,
land of the noble free, thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
thy woods and templed hills;
my heart with rapture thrills, like that above.
Let music swell the breeze,
and ring from all the trees sweet freedom’s song;
let mortal tongues awake;
let all that breathe partake;
let rocks their silence break, the sound prolong.
Our fathers’ God, to thee,
author of liberty, to thee we sing;
long may our land be bright
with freedom’s holy light;
protect us by thy might, great God, our King.

’Way beyond the blue horizon!
I’ve got a home in glory land that outshines the sun.
I’ve got a home in glory land that outshines the sun.
I’ve got a home in glory land that outshines the sun.
’Way beyond the blue horizon!
CHORUS
I took Jesus as my savior, you take Him, too.

If you cannot bear the cross, you can’t wear the crown.
If you cannot bear the cross, you can’t wear the crown.

Way beyond the blue horizon!
CHORUS
CHORUS
On the dummy line, on the dummy line
Rain or shine, I’ll pay my fine
Rain or shine, I’ll pay my fine
Ride, ride, riding on the dummy line
I got on the train and didn’t have the fare
The conductor said, “Whatcha doin’ there?”
He grabbed me by the collar and shoved me out the door
Said, “I don’t want to see you on this line no more!”
I’ve got a girl, and her name’s Hortense.
She’s not good looking, but she’s got good sense.
Every time I kiss Hortense (WOOOOO!)
I’ve got to buy a nickle’s worth of peppermints!
Little Willy was home by himself
Found a chocolate cake on the kitchen shelf
Willy said, “If I eat this cake
Sis won’t get a belly ache”
Little Willy saw a mill saw buzz
Didn’t know quite what it was
Now his arm is full of nicks
And, alas poor Willy, he’s cut in six
Little Willy found some dynamite
He didn’t understand it quite
But curiosity never pays
It rained Willy several days
Little Willy coming home from school
Spied a half a dollar at the foot of a mule
Stooped down to pick it up, quiet as a mouse
Funeral tomorrow at little Willy’s house!
Little birdie in the sky
Dropped some whitewash in my eye
Says I to me; says me to I
“I’m sure glad that cows can’t fly!”
There was a boy by the name of Jack
Pitched his tent on a railroad track
Midnight express came around the bend
What kind of flowers did you send?
There once was a doctor, his name was Peck
He fell in a well and he broke his neck
It served him right, for he should’ve known
To tend to the sick and leave the well alone!
There once was a hunter, his name was O’Hare
He was chased by a grizzly bear
The people all thought he was out of his mind
Running down the street with a bear behind!
There was an old witch by the name of Nan
Who tried to pass as a good humor man
Couldn’t fool the kids, they all stayed home -
They would not buy from an ice cream crone
My grandpa had a car, it was a Ford machine
His whiskers came in handy for straining gasoline
My grandma had a habit of chewing in her sleep
She chewed on grandpa’s whiskers and dreamed of shredded wheat
There was a little Dutchman and is name was Dunderbeck.
He used to deal in sausages and sauerkraut and speck.
He made the finest sausages that ever you did see,
And then one day he invented a wonderful sausage machine.
CHORUS
Oh, Mister, Mister Dunderbeck how could you be so mean.
I told you you’d be sorry for inventing that machine.
Now all the neighbors cats and dogs will never more be seen.
For they’ve been ground to sausages in Dunderbeck’s machine.
One day a boy came walking, came walking in the store,
He bought a pound of sausages, and he laid them on the floor.
And the boy began to whistle, and he whistled up a tune,
And all the little sausages went dancing ’round the room.
CHORUS
One day the machine go busted, the blame thing wouldn’t go,
So Dunderbeck he climbed inside to see what made it so.
His wife she had a nightmare, and walking in her sleep,
She gave the crank a heck of a yank, and Dunderbeck was meat!
CHORUS
God bless America, land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her, through the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans, white with foam,
God bless America, my home sweet home.
