LYRICS
There was one in the bed and the little one said, “Roll over. Rock over.”
Come on time to wake
Time to make it shake
We can discover
The meaning of lover
A place where the shadows don’t smother
What will it take
An effort to make
The depths of forever
For Go(o)dness sake
There were ten in the bed and the little one said, “Roll over. Rock over.”
They all rolled over and rocked it out
Now that’s what I’m talkin’ bout
Or much too fast
You’ll be alone — the last.
LYRICS
Are you saving all your loving for a rainy day
Well, hey, hey, hey, do you know what they say
Give it away! Keep the clouds at bay!
Let your love shine, shine away
Did you say that you pray for deliverance day
Well, hey, hey, hey, did you hear what they say
Get your heaven on earth during this birth
Let your love shine, shine away
I believe the more you give the more you receive
And, hey, hey, hey, be the one to say
Live our lives full of mirth for what it’s worth
Let your love shine, shine away
LYRICS
Let the dance be found
Turn yourself around
Jump about… shout!
Fun without a doubt
Let the energy out
Dance and sing about
Let the energy in
That’s when you’ll begin
Jump up! Do the double leg kick
Quick! Jump high! Try!
Let the dance be found
Love will abound
Jump up and shout!
Sun, let my soul melt
Let the synergy out
Our feeling felt
Let the synergy in
Our feelings begin
Jump up! Do the double leg kick
Quick! Jump high! Try!

LYRICS
1, 2 buckle your shoe
3, 4 shut the door
5, 6 pick up sticks
Dang it! What do you call a bundle of sticks?
Am I as thick as a brick?
What do you call a bundle of sticks?
1, 2 buckle your shoe
3, 4 shut the door
5, 6 pick up sticks
7, 8 lay them straight
7, 8 don’t belate
7, 8 don’t hesitate
7, 8 don’t be late
1, 2 buckle your shoe
3, 4 shut the door
5, 6 pick up sticks
7, 8 lay them straight
9, 10 do it again
9, 10 do it again
9, 10 The End
LYRICS
1, 2, 3, 4
1, 2, 3, for what do we dance?
1, to what do we dance?
Bark it out
Don’t be afraid
Make a sound
Be found… out
Bark it out
Don’t be afraid
You are what you made
Now, make of it what you will
Shake it… better still
1, 2, 3, 4 what are we dancing for?
Dance a suspense dance (can’t wait to anticipate)
Dance a surveillance dance (see if there’s a scene gleam)
Dance an independence dance
Dance a reverence dance
Dance to thank God we’ve got a chance to dance!
1, 2, 3, for what? 1, 2, 3, 4 what do we dance for?
Dance for what
Jump about
Electrify I. Give Watt! (see your energy)
ABOUT THE SONG
Chords – E / E less E add G
E / G / A / E
Written and recorded November 11 and 15, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. The writing of the album got started at the Veterans Memorial on Veterans Day. As I would play, the children would start marching. Several of the songs on this album marched to the beat of that drummer.
LYRICS
The clouds moved out of the way
’cause the mountains had something to say
“We appreciate the sunshine today”
When trouble is at bay
Conveyancing will outweigh
Why move mountains?
Why move a mountain?
Through our valley let peace roll in
