OPENING LYRICS
Barney is a dinosaur from our imagination
When he?s tall he?s what we call A dinosaur sensation
Barney teaches lots of things
Like how to play pretend
A-B-C?s and 1-2-3?s and how to be a friend
Barney comes to play with us
Whenever we may need him
Barney can be your friend too
If you just make believe him
CLOSING LYRICS
I love you,
You love me
We?re a great big family.
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
Won?t you say you love me to!
The tune to the song above is Yankee Doodle. The original lyrics are below.
YANKEE DOODLE
Father and I went down to Camp,
Along with Captain Gooding;
And there we saw the men and boys,
As thick as hasty pudding.
Yankee doodle, keep it up,
Yankee doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.
There was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion,
A-giving orders to his men,
I guess there was a million.
And then the feathers on his hat,
They looked so' tarnal fin-a,
I wanted pockily to get
To give to my Jemima.
And then we saw a swamping gun,
Large as a log of maple;
Upon a deuced little cart,
A load for father's cattle.
And every time they shoot it off,
It takes a horn of powder;
It makes a noise like father's gun,
Only a nation louder.
I went as nigh to one myself,
As' Siah's underpinning;
And father went as nigh agin,
I thought the deuce was in him.
We saw a little barrel, too,
The heads were made of leather;
They knocked upon it with little clubs,
And called the folks together.
And there they'd fife away like fun,
And play on cornstalk fiddles,
And some had ribbons red as blood,
All bound around their middles.
The troopers, too, would gallop up
And fire right in our faces;
It scared me almost to death
To see them run such races.
Uncle Sam came there to change
Some pancakes and some onions,
For' lasses cake to carry home
To give his wife and young ones.
But I can't tell half I see
They kept up such a smother;
So I took my hat off, made a bow,
And scampered home to mother.
Cousin Simon grew so bold,
I thought he would have cocked it;
It scared me so I streaked it off,
And hung by father's pocket.
And there I saw a pumpkin shell,
As big as mother's basin;
And every time they touched it off,
They scampered like the nation.
Yankee doodle, keep it up,
Yankee doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.
The tune to the song above is This Old Man. The original lyrics are below.
THIS OLD MAN
This old man, number one
He played knick-knack on my thumb
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number two
He played knick-knack on my shoe
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number three
He played knick-knack on my knee
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number four
He played knick-knack on my floor
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number five
He played knick-knack on my hive
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number six
He played knick-knack with some sticks
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number seven
He played knick-knack up in heaven
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number eight
He played knick-knack on the gate
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number nine
He played knick-knack on my vine
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, number ten
He played knick-knack all over again.
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.
