A-C-O-R-N
(tune: Bingo)

There is a nut that squirrels like
And acorn is it's name-o
A-C-O-R-N
A-C-O-R-N
A-C-O-R-N
And acorn is it's name-o.

There is a nut that squirrels like

And acorn is it's name-o
A-C-O-R-(clap/crunch)
A-C-O-R-(clap/crunch)
A-C-O-R-(clap/crunch)
And acorn is it's name-o.

Continue singing the song, taking one letter from the end and replacing it with a clap/crunch, until all letter are gone and you do five clap/crunch.

Scarecrow, Scarecrow
Scarecrow, scarecrow turn around
Scarecrow, scarecrow touch the ground

Scarecrow, scarecrow reach up high
Scarecrow, scarecrow touch the sky

Scarecrow, scarecrow bend down low
Scarecrow, scarecrow touch your toe.

Scarecrow, scarecrow stand up now
Scarecrow, scarecrow take a bow!  

Autumn Leaves
(tune: Did you ever see a lassie?)

Autumn leaves are hanging, are hanging, are hanging
Autumn leaves are hanging, are hanging today.

Autumn leaves turn colors, turn colors, turn colors
Autumn leaves turn colors, turn colors today.

Autumn leaves are falling, are falling, are falling
Autumn leaves are falling, are falling today.

Autumn leaves are dancing, are dancing, are dancing
Autumn leaves are dancing, dancing today.

Autumn leaves are raked up, are raked up, are raked up
Autumn leaves are raked up, raked up today.

Autumn leaves are jumped in, are jumped in, are jumped in
Autumn leaves are jumped in, are jumped in today!
