“Pick on somebody your own size!”
Colors of the Wind
You think you own
whatever land you land on.
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim.
But I know every rock
and tree and creature.
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name.
You think the only people
who are people ….
are the people who look and think like you.
But if you walk the footsteps
of a stranger, you’ll learn things
you never knew, you never knew.
Have you ever heard the wolf cry
to the blue corn moon,
or asked the grinning bobcat
why he grinned?
Can you sing with
all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with
all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with
all the colors of the wind?

I’m a Believer
I thought love was only true in fairy tales,
meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me.
That’s the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted
all my dreams.
Then I saw her face.
Now I’m a believer…
Not a trace….
of doubt in my mind.
I’m in love…
I’m a believer.
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.
I thought love was more or less
a givin’ thing.
Seems the more I gave
the less I got.
What’s the use in tryin’?
All you get is pain.
When I wanted sunshine
I got rain.
Then I saw her face.
Now I’m a believer…
Not a trace….of doubt in my mind.
I’m in love…
I’m a believer.
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.
Then I saw her face.
Now I’m a believer.
Now I’m a believer.

You’re a Grand Old Flag
You’re a grand old flag,
you’re a high flying flag.
And forever in peace
may you wave.
You’re the emblem of,
the land I love,
the home of the free and the brave.
Every heart beats true
under red, white, and blue.
Where there’s never a boast or brag.
But should auld acquaintance
be forgot keep your eye
on the grand old flag
