Yey (songs from Jack Johnson and Friends)

LULLABY

when youre so lonely
lyin in bed
nights closed its eyes
but you cant rest your head
everyones sleepin
all through the house
you wish you could dream
but forgot to somehow

sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself

and if you are waitin
waitin for me
ill be home soon darling
i guarantee

ill be home sunday
just in one week
dry up your tears
if you start to weep
and sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself

lullaby, im not nearby
sing this lullaby to yourself
dont you cry
no dont you cry
sing this lullaby to yourself

cos when i arrive dear
it wont be that long
no it wont seem like anytime
that ive been gone
it aint the first time
it wont be the last
wont you remember these words
to help the time pass

so when youre so lonely
lyin in bed
and nights closed its eyes
but you cant rest your head
everyones sleepin
all through the house
you wish you could dream
but forgot to somehow

sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby, sing this lullaby
sing this lullaby to yourself


We're going to be friends

fall is here, hear the yell
back to school, ring the bell
brand new shoes, walkin blues
climb the fence, books and pens
i can tell that we are gonna be friends
yes i can tell that we are gonna be friends

walk with me, susie lee
through the park, and by the tree
we can rest upon the ground
and look at all the bugs we found
safely walk to school without a sound
we safely walk to school without a sound

well here we are, no one else
we walk to school all by ourselves
theres dirt on our uniforms
from chasing all the ants and worms
we clean up and now its time to learn
we clean up and now its time to learn

numbers letters, learn to spell
nouns and books, and show and tell
play time we will throw the ball
then back to class, through the hall
teacher marks our height against the wall
the teacher marks our height against the wall

we dont notice any time pass
cos we dont notice anything
we sit side by side in every class
the teacher thinks that i sound funny
but she likes it when you sing

tonight ill dream, in my bed
while silly thoughts, run through my head
of the bugs, and alphabet
and when i wake tomorrow ill bet
you and i will walk together again
cos i can tell that we are gonna be friends
yes i can tell that we are gonna be friends

with my own two hands

i can change the world
with my own two hands
make it a better place
with my own two hands
make it a kinder place
with my own two hands
with my own, with my own two hands

i can make peace on earth
with my own two hands
i can clean up the earth
with my own two hands
i can reach out to you
with my own two hands
with my own, with my own two hands
with my own, with my own two hands

im gonna make it a brighter place
with my own two hands
im gonna make it a safer place
with my own two hands
im gonna help the human race
with my own two hands
with my own, with my own two hands
with my own, with my own two hands

i can hold you
in my own two hands
and i can comfort you
with my own two hands
but you got to use
use your own two hands
use your own, use your own two hands
use your own, use your own two hands

with our own, with our own two hands
with our own, with our own two hands

with my own, with my own two hands
