The SDMB Sing-Along

101

Sometimes, some crimes go slippin’ through the cracks
But these two gumshoes are pickin’ up the slack
There’s no case too big, no case too small
When you need help, just call

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers!
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
When there’s danger
Oh no, it never fails
Once they’re involved
Somehow whatever’s wrong gets solved

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
When there’s danger
Oh no, it never fails
They’ll take the clues
And find the wheres and whys and whos

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers!
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale
When there’s danger
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'n Dale!

I love to go a-wandering along the mountain track
And as I go I love to sing, my knapsack on my back.

Valderi, valdera, valderi, valdera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Valderi, valdera, my knapsack on my back.

Oh, what a thrill!
When the crimson starts to spill
And my Millie goes in for the kill
She takes away my breath
She’s the angel of death for me
Oh, Millie!

She’s my queen, it’s like a dream
When I hear her victims start to scream
In and out of the sack
She’s the maniac for me
Oh, Millie!

When the blood starts dripping down the walls
And the bodies start to fall
My heart skips a beat
When my Millie’s guns are blazing in the heat
My assassin love, she makes the murdering fun for me
Oh, la da dee!

Of all the imps in Hell
It’s for her that I fell
Oh, Millie!

I push the first valve down
The music goes down and around
Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
And it comes out here!

Stand up all victims of oppression
For the tyrants fear your might
Don’t cling so hard to your possessions
For you have nothing if you have no rights
Let racist ignorance be ended
For respect makes the empires fall
Freedom is merely privilege extended
Unless enjoyed by one and all

So come brothers and sisters
For the struggle carries on
The internationale
Unites the world in song
So comrades come rally
For this is the time and place
The international ideal
Unites the human race

Let no one build walls to divide us
Walls of hatred nor walls of stone
Come greet the dawn and stand beside us
We’ll live together or we’ll die alone
In our world poisoned by exploitation
Those who have taken now they must give
And end the vanity of nations
We’ve but one earth on which to live

So come brothers and sisters
For the struggle carries on
The internationale
Unites the world in song
So comrades come rally
For this is the time and place
The international ideal
Unites the human race

And so begins the final drama
In the streets and in the fields
We stand unbowed before their armor
We defy their guns and shields
When we fight provoked by their aggression
Let us be inspired by like and love
For though they offer us concessions
Change will not come from above

So come brothers and sisters
For the struggle carries on
The internationale
Unites the world in song
So comrades come rally
For this is the time and place
The international ideal
Unites the human race

Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé !
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L’étendard sanglant est levé !

That sounds familiar. I think my source probably used “louie” rather than “shavetail” as louie has wider application, a shavetail being specifically a Second Lieutenant whereas Sargeants, Colonels, and Generals had a single line for multiple ranks.

We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay,
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay.
My wife said, “Honey, we’re losing money…
We have some chickens, but no eggs will they lay.”

One day a rooster came in our yard
And caught those chickens right off their guard…
They’re laying eggs now, just like they use’ter,
Ever since that rooster came in our yard!

We had a milk cow, no milk would she give,
We had a milk cow-ow, no milk would she give.
My wife said, “Honey, we’re losing money,
We have a milk cow-ow-ow-ow, but no milk will she give.”

One day this rooster came in our yard,
And caught that milk cow (wow!!), right off her guard…
She’s giving eggnog in waxed containers,
Ever since that rooster came in our yard!

We had a gum tree, but no gum would it give,
We had a gum tree, but no gum would it give.
My wife said, “Honey, we’re losing money,
We have a gum tree, but no gum will it give.”

One day a rooster came in our yard,
And caught that… gum tree, right off its guard…
It’s giving Chiclets, in yellow boxes,
Ever since that rooster came in our yard!
