| Lyrics: | I've been working on the railroad All the livelong day I've been working on the railroad Just to pass the time away Can't you hear the whistle blowing Rise up so early in the morn Can't you hear the captain shouting Dinah, blow your horn Dinah, won't you blow Dinah, won't you blow Dinah, won't you blow your horn Dinah, won't you blow Dinah, won't you blow Dinah, won't you blow your horn Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah Someone's in the kitchen I know Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah Strumming on the old banjo, and singing Fie, fi, fiddly i o Fie, fi, fiddly i o Fie, fi, fiddly i o Strumming on the old banjo Miscellaneous Verses - send more if you know them I've Been Picking Up the Litter I've been pickin' up the litter, All the live long day. I've been pickin' up the litter, Just to have a place to play. Can't you see the litter basket, Sitting on the sidewalk there? Every little bit will help us, If you just show you care. Won't you pick it up? Won't you pick it up? Won't you pick it up today, today? Help us clean it up, Help us clean it up, Help clean up the U S A. Working on the Trash We've been working on RECYCLING All the trash we can, We've been working on recycling, It's a very simple plan, Separate your glass and paper, Separate your plastic and tin. Take the trash that you've recycled To your recycling bin! We've been working on REDUCING All the trash we can. We've been working on reducing It's a very simple plan Don't go wasting any products, Use just exactly what you need. Don't buy things in extra wrapping, Reduce and you'll succeed! We've been working on REUSING All the trash we can. We've been working on reusing, It's a very simple plan. If it's a paper bag you're using, Don't use it once, use it twice! Give old clothes and toys to someone, To reuse them would be nice! Working on Pollution I've been workin' on pollution All the livelong day. Pickin' up the cans and bottles That are always in the way. Can't you see the chimney smokin' Fillin' the sky with haze. Do your part to stop pollution You can help in many ways. Pinewood Derby I've been working on the Derby, Planning my race car. All the family has been helping, My car should be the star! Can't you hear the crowds a cheering, As we win the prize? Pinewood Derby time's exciting, For all the Cub Scout guys. |
