They reached Plymouth Rock, fulfilling all their dreams. But, then winter came with bitter cold and suffering. Chorus Food was scarce and many died; How could they stay alive?..... Chorus Feasting altogether, they thanked God for ev’rything..... Chorus …Oh, people rejoice! Give thanks!

PATRIOTIC SONGS from schoo;house roc

"I'm Just A Bill --- School House Rock
D Em7 F Eb
(Kid) "Whew! You sure gotta' climb a lotta' steps to get to this Capitol
C G Am G
building here in Washinton! Well, I wonder who that sad little scrap of paper is?"
G
I'm just a bill, yes I'm only a bill, and I'm sittin' here on Capitol Hill
C7
Well it's a long, long journey to the capitol city. It's a long, long wait
D
while I'm sittin' in committee - but I know I'll be a law someday, at least
Em F Eb C
I hope and pray that I will, but today I am still just a bill.


G Am G
(Kid) "Gee, Bill, you certainly have a lot of patience and courage."

(Bill) "Well, I got this far. When I started I wasn't even a bill, I was

just an idea. Some folks back home decided they wanted a law passed,
C7
so they called their local congressman and he said, 'You're right,

there ought to be a law.' Then he sat down, wrote me out, and

introduced me to Congress, and I became a bill - and I'll remain a
D
bill until they decide to make me a law."


G
I'm just a bill, yes I'm only a bill, and I got as far as Capitol Hill.
C7
Well now, I'm stuck in committee, and I'll sit here and wait, while a
D
few key congressmen discuss and debate whether they should let me be a law.
Em7 F
How I hope and pray that they will, but today I am still just a bill.


G
(Kid) "Listen to those congressmen arguing! Is all that discussion and debate

about you?"

(Bill) "Yeah, I one of the lucky ones. Most bills never get this far. I
C7
hope they decide to report favorably, otherwise I may die."

(Kid) "Die?"
G
(Bill) "Yeah, die in committee. Ooh, but it looks like I'm gonna' live.
D
Now I go to the House of Represenatives and they vote on me."
C7
(Kid) "If they vote 'Yes,' what happens?"
G
(Bill) "Then I go to the Senate and the whole thing starts all over again."
D
(Kid) "Oh, no."

(Bill) "Oh, yes!"


G
I'm just a bill, yes I'm only a bill, and if they vote for me on Capitol Hill,
C7
well, then I'm off to the White House, where I'll wait in a line with a lot
D
of other bills for the President to sign, and if he signs me then I'll be a law
Em7 F Eb C
How I hope and pray that he will, but today I am still just a bill.

G Am G
(Kid) "You mean, even if the whole Congress says you should be a law,
G
the President can still say no?"

(Bill) "Yes. That's called a 'veto.' If the President vetoes me, I'll

have to go back to Congress and they vote on me again, and by that

time you're so old, you...
C7 D
(Kid) "By that time it's very unlikely that you'll become a law. It's not

easy to become a law, is it?"

(Bill) "No..."

Em7 F Eb C
But how I hope and pray that I will, but today I am still just a bill.


(Congressman) "He signed you, Bill. Now you're a law."

(Bill) "Oh yes!"

Once was a scarecrow in a field of corn, Dressed in clothes all tattered and torn. Tied together and stuffed with straw,Best old scarecrow you ever saw.
Along came the crows, flappin’ to the ground, Gonna eat the corn that’s growin’ all around. Scarecrow said Hey SHOO CROW SHOO- Don’t bother me and I won’t bother you.
