A Place In The Choir Lyrics

A Place In The Choir lyrics

A PLACE IN THE CHOIR
     All God's critters got a place in the choir

    Some sing low, some sing higher,
     Some sing out loud on the
telephone wires,
     And some just clap their hands, or paws, or anything
they
     got now
     REPEAT
Listen to the bass, it's the one on
the bottom
Where the bullfrog croaks and the hippopotamus
Moans and
groans with a big t'do
And the old cow just goes moo.
The dogs and
the cats they take up the middle
While the honeybee hums and the cricket
fiddles,
The donkey brays and the pony neighs
And the old coyote
howls.
     CHORUS
Listen to the top where the little birds sing
On the melodies with the high notes ringing,
The hoot owl hollers over
everything
And the jaybird disagrees.
Singin' in the night time,
singing in the day,
The little duck quacks, then he's on his way.
The
'possum ain't got much to say
And the porcupine talks to himself.
    
CHORUS
It's a simple song of living sung everywhere
By the ox and the
fox and the grizzly gear,
The grumpy alligator the the hawk above,
The sly racoon and the turtle dove.
     CHORUS
     REPEAT
