from I Love Birds by Coyote Wall

originally released on STRIKE ONE! by Fourth Strike Records (fourth-strike.bandcamp.com).

clap your hands on the ones and threes
down at the singalong jamboree 
and come and stay awhile with me
at the singalong jamboree
i’ll meet you there by the old oak tree 
you can sing like a bird or hum like a bee
but we’ll be there i guarantee
at the singalong jamboree

well i don’t drink beer and i don’t smoke weed
down at the singalong jamboree
cause i got everything i need
at the singalong jamboree
we live up north by the rolling sea
there’s water in the river and the food is free
as long as you’ve got a mouth to feed
at the singalong jamboree

oh they might come through with a big army
down at the singalong jamboree
and they might command us all to leave
at the singalong jamboree
but they won’t stay for long you’ll see
when we sing out what we believe
and they will turn and let us be
at the singalong jamboree 

we don’t care about your money or your college degree
down at the singalong jamboree
there ain’t no banks or ivy league
at the singalong jamboree
set aside your pedigree 
and stay until you’re good to leave
we’ll be here a while indeed
at the singalong jamboree

so i’ll meet you there by the old oak tree 
and you can sing like a bird or hum like a bee
but we’ll be there i guarantee
at the singalong jamboree
