"Working Together"
Lyrics

Vincent - Working Together CD

It's All Good

It's all good - the sun is gonna shine
It's all good - I'm here and doing fine
It's all good - your hand's holding mine
It's all good in my neighborhood
It's all good in my neighborhood

It's all good - like an apple red and sweet
It's all good - when I'm walking in bare feet
It's all good - and you can keep the beat
It's all good in my neighborhood
It's all good in my neighborhood

Sometimes you're gonna stumble
Sometimes you're gonna fall
But if we work together
we'll get through it all

It's all good - every flower, every tree
It's all good - every bird and every bee
It's all good - and you can sing with me
It's all good in my neighborhood
It's all good in my neighborhood
It's all good in my neighborhood

 

Colors of the World

Orange is the color of yellow and red ...
and orange is the color of carrots

Green is the color of yellow and blue ...
and green is the color of broccoli

Purple is the color of red and blue ...
and purple is the color of grapes

Grey is the color of black and white ...
and grey is the color of elephants

Pink is the color of red and white ...
and pink is the color of flamingoes

I am the color of my family ...
and I am the color of me

we are the colors of the whole wide world ...
and we are the colors of the rainbow

 

Small Town/Big City

I live in a small town

I love the city rhythm and I love the city beat
You can feel it in the people,
you can feel it in the street

Blue skies and playgrounds

great big buildings, every shape and size
elevators, escalators take you to the sky

There's no traffic on the street

Taxi cabs and buses, jet airplanes
uptown, downtown, subway trains

I know everyone I meet

People from around the world call the city home
Day or night, night or day, you'll never be alone

I love the rhythm and the sound

Neon lights, shine so bright
small town folks, come see the sights

of people living in a small town

you'll love the city rhythm and you'll love the city beat
you can feel it in the people,
you can feel it in the street

 

 

 

Mama Told Me (Days of the Week)

Mama told me on a Monday
Mama told me on a Tuesday

They're big happy fun days
Saturday and Sunday
No School,

Seven Notes

Do ... Re ... Me ... Fa ...
So ... La ... Ti ... (Do)

These seven notes from Do to Ti
are all you need to sing with me
I sing them high, I sing them low
I sing them all right in a row

Do ... Re ... Me ... Fa ... So ... La ... Ti ... (Do)
Do ... Ti ... La ... So ... Fa ... Me ... Re ... (Do)

And sometimes
I just rest

And sometimes
I just stop

 

Song for Elizabeth

(instrumental)

 

Working Together (Pick it Up)

We've been playing
for an hour or two
But there's one thing
that we can do

Look at this stuff
all over the floor
from wall to wall
from door to door

Don't have to worry
Don't have to stess ...
We're gonna pick up this mess

I see a pencil, pick it up
I see a spoon, pick it up
I see a coat, pick it up
We're gonna pick up this mess

I see a napkin, pick it up
I see a shoe, pick it up
I see a cup, pick it up

We're gonna pick up this mess

two times, two times, two is eight
working together sure feels fine
working together feels great (repeat)

(Repeat verse)

I see a crayon, pick it up
I see a cracker, pick it up
I see a block, pick it up
We're gonna pick up this mess

I see a ... what's that!
I see a ... that looks wet!
I see a ... be careful!
We're gonna pick up this mess

two times, two times, two is eight
working together sure feels fine
working together feels great (repeat)

 

 

Pittsburgh Planets

I (We) root for the Pittsburg Planets
But they've never won a baseball game
They've been together
it seems like forever
and their battling order is always the same

Today's starting line up:

Michael Mercury
Victor Venus
Emily Earth
Matthew Mars
Julia Jupiter
Sarah Saturn
Nicholas Neptune

Uma Uranus
Pedro Pluto

He's their ace pitcher
when they play they always have fun
and they rally around their favorite coach
the warm-hearted old Mister Sun

Some folks root for the Red Sox
the Yankees, the Dodgers, the Cubs
But I root for the Pittsburg Planets
'Cause they are the team that I love

(Repeat chorus)

 

Months and Seasons

January, February
March, April
May, June and July
August, September
October, November
December

a year does fly

Winter brings snow and cold
Spring, my garden grows
Summer is sunshine
Autumn is harvest time
My, how the seasons go

River Keep Rollin' (Peaceful Village)

I live in a peaceful village
Here with my family
Brother and sister with me
We live in harmony

River keep rollin' . . . . rollin'
River keep rollin' to the sea

Fish swim
Fish jump in the cool clear water
Fish swim
Fish jump to the sea

Bird fly high
Bird fly to the sea

 

Sail Away

There's a ship that's in the harbor
and it's coming home from sea
You can see the smiling sailors
waving to their families

And each sailor has a story
of adventures high and low
Oh, it's peaceful in the harbor
But every sailor knows

That the safest place
is in the harbor
but that's not where
boats were meant to be
boats were made to go to sea

So sail away, sail away
sail in to the morning sun
Sail away, sail away
sail until the day is done

Oh, the days go by so quickly
It's time that sailors go to sea
And now I'm old enough to join them
The captain's calling out for me

Soon I'll have my own great stories
of adventures high and low
Oh it's peaceful in the harbor
but every sailor knows

(Repeat chorus)
