    It's time to play the music
    It's time to light the lights
    It's time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight

    It's time to put on makeup
    It's time to dress up right
    It's time to raise the curtain on the Muppet Show tonight

    Why do we always come here
    I guess we'll never know
    It's like a kind of torture
    To have to watch the show

    And now let's get things started
    Why don't you get things started
    It's time to get things started
    On the most sensational inspirational celebrational Muppetational
    This is what we call the Muppet Show

    Did My Heart Beat?
    Composer(s): Benee Russell - George W. Meyer - Pete Wendling
    Performer(s): Pat O'Malley



    Did my heart beat
    The moment that I looked at you
    Did my heart beat
    And say that no-one else would do
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    Was my face red
    I hardly knew just what to say
    Was my face red
    I must have shown it every way
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    We talked awhile of this and that
    The night was so divine
    We walked awhile and then we sat
    Then suddenly your lips met mine

    Did I run home
    And tell it to the family
    Did I run home
    To tell them you belong to me
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    Christopher Columbus Composer(s): Chuck Berry - Andy Razaf Performer(s): Andy Kirk



    Mister Christopher columbus
    Sailed the sea without a compass
    When his men began a rumpus
    Up spoke, Christopher Columbus

    There is land somewhere
    Until we get there
    We will not go wrong
    If we sing, "swing a song"

    Since the world is round
    We'll be safe and sound
    Til our goal is found
    We'll just keep rhythm bound

    Soon the crew was makin merry
    Then came a yell, "Let's drink to Isabelle
    Hum, bring the rum, Ho Hum"

    No more mutiny,
    What a time at sea
    With di-plo-ma-cy
    Christy made his-to-ry

    Mister Christopher Columbus
    He used rhythm as a compass
    Music ended all the rumpus
    Wise old Christopher Columbus

    Reelin' In The Years
    Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen
    Performer(s): Steely Dan;
    Eddie M.; Marvelous 3



    Your everlasting summer
    You can see it fading fast
    So you grab a piece of something
    That you think is gonna last
    You wouldn't know a diamond
    If you held it in your hand
    The things you think are precious
    I can't understand

    Chorus:
    Are you reelin' in the years
    Stowin' away the time
    Are you gatherin' up the tears
    Have you had enough of mine

    You been tellin' me you're a genius
    Since you were seventeen
    In all the time I've known you
    I still don't know what you mean
    The weekend at the college
    Didn't turn out like you planned
    The things that pass for knowledge
    I can't understand

    Chorus

    I spent a lot of money
    And I spent a lot of time
    The trip we made in Hollywood
    Is etched upon my mind
    After all the things we've done and seen
    You find another man
    The things you think are useless
    I can't understand

    Chorus

    The Munsters
    Composer(s): Jack Marshall
    First performance: 1964



    When you are walking down the street at night
    And behind you theres no one in view
    But you hear mysterious feet at night
    Then The Munsters are following you!

    If you should meet this strange family
    Just forget what some people have said
    The Munsters may shake your hand clammily
    But they're not necessarily dead

    Behind their house you musn't be afraid
    To see a figure digging with a spade!
    Perhaps someone didn't quite make the grade
    with The Munsters, with The Munsters

    If when you're sleeping you dream a lot
    Ghoulish nightmares parade through your head
    And then you wake up and scream a lot
    Oh, The Munsters are under your bed!

    At midnight if creatures should prowl about
    And if vampires and vultures swoop down
    And werewolves and feinds shreik and howl about
    Oh, The Munsters are out on the town!

    One night I dared peak through their window screen
    My hair turned white at such a crazy scene!
    Because every evening its Halloween
    At The Munsters', at The Munsters'!

    Reelin' And Rockin'

    Some-times I will, then again I think I won't
    Some-times I will, then again I think I won't
    Some- times I do, then again I think I don't

    Well, I looked at my watch it was nine twenty one
    'twas at a rock 'n' roll dance havin' nothin' but fun
    We were rollin' reelin' and a-rockin'
    We were reelin' and a-rockin' and rollin' till the break of dawn

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine thirty-two
    There's nothin' I'd rather do than dance with you
    We were rollin', reelin' and a-rockin'...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine forty-three
    And every time I'd spin, she'd spin with me
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin', ...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine fifty-four
    I said, "Dance ballerina girl, go, go, go!"
    We were rollin, reelin' and a-rockin' ...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten o-five,
    Man, I didn't know whether I was dead or alive!
    But I was rollin', reelin' and a-rockin'....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-six
    But I'm a keep on dancin' till I got my kicks!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin'.....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-eight
    I gotta get my kicks before it gets too late!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin' ....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-nine
    I had to hold her hand, she was still holdin' mine!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin'. ....

    Well, I looked at my watch, and to my surprise,
    I was dancin' with a woman who was twice my size!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin' .....

    Well, I looked at my watch, and it was time to go
    The band leader said, "We ain't playin' no mo'!"
    We were reelin', reelin', and a-rockin'....

    When in the springtime of the year
    When the trees are crowned with leaves
    When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
    Are dressed in ribbons fair

    When owls call the breathless moon
    In the blue veil of the night
    The shadows of the trees appear
    Amidst the lantern light

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    Who will go down to those shady groves
    And summon the shadows there
    And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
    In the springtime of the year

    The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
    That when the fiddler plays
    All their voices can be heard
    Long past their woodland days

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    And so they linked their hands and danced
    Round in circles and in rows
    And so the journey of the night descends
    When all the shades are gone

    A garland gay we bring you here
    And at your door we stand
    It is a sprout well budded out
    The work of Our Lord's hand

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    Ballad Of Forty Dollars
    Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
    First release by: Tom T. Hall - 1968
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The man who preached the funeral
    Said it really was a simple way to die
    He laid down to rest one afternoon
    And never opened up his eyes
    They hired me and Fred and Joe
    To dig the grave and carry up some chairs
    It took us seven hours
    And I guess we must have drunk a case of beer

    I guess I ought to go and watch them put 'im down
    But I don't own a suit
    And anyway when they start talkin' about
    The fire in Hell, well, I get spooked
    So, I'll just sit here in my truck
    And act like I don't know 'im when they pass
    Anyway, when they're all through
    I've got to go to work and mow the grass

    Well, here they come and who's that
    Ridin' in that big ol' shiny limousine
    Mmh! look at all that chrome, I do believe
    That that's the sharpest thing I've seen
    That must belong to his great uncle
    Someone said he owned a big ol' farm
    When they get parked I'll mosey down
    and look it over, that won't do no harm

    Well, that must be the widow in the car
    And would you take a look at that
    That sure is a pretty dress
    You know some women do look good in black
    Well, he's not even in the ground
    And they say that his truck is up for sale
    They say she took it pretty hard
    But you can't tell too much behind the veil

    Well, listen ain't that pretty
    When the bugler plays the Military "Taps"
    I think that when you's in the war
    They always (hide 'n) play a song like that
    Well, here I am and there they go
    And I guess you'd have to call it my bad luck
    I hope he rests in peace, the trouble is
    The fellow owes me forty bucks

    Christmas is bedtime where no one wants to go
    All the world is tinsel bright
    So glad to know that Christmas is tonight

    There's no place that I'd rather be than right here
    With my red necks, white socks and blue ribbon beer
    The bar-maid is mad 'cause some guy made a pass
    The juke box is playin' there stands the glass
    And the cig-a-rette smoke kind-a hangs in the air
    Red-necks, white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    A cow-boy is cus-sin' the pin-ball ma-chine
    A drunk at the bar is get-tin' nois-y and mean
    And, some guy on the phone says i'll be home soon dear
    Red-necks white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    No we don't fit in with that white col-lar crowd
    We're a lit-tle too row-dy and a little too loud
    There's no place that I'd rath-er be than right here
    With my red-necks white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    The sem-is are pass-ing on the high-way out-side
    The four thir-ty crowd is a-bout to ar-rive
    The sun's go-in' down and we'll all soon be here
    Red-necks, white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    No we don't fit in with that white col-lar crowd
    We're a lit-tle too row-dy and a little too loud
    There's no place that I'd rath-er be than right here
    With my red-necks white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    There's no place that I'd rather be than right here
    With my red-necks, white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    The Mountains Of Mourne
    Composer(s): William Percy French - Dr. W. Houston Collisson
    Performer(s): Peter Dawson - 1928
    and multiple other artists



    Oh, Mary this London's a wonderful sight
    With people here workin' by day and by night
    They don't sow potatoes, nor barley, nor wheat
    But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
    At least when I asked them that's what I was told
    So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
    But for all that I found there I might as well be
    Where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea

    I believe that when writin' a wish you expressed
    As to how the fine ladies in London were dressed
    Well, if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball
    They don't wear no top to their dresses at all
    Oh, I've seen them meself and you could not in truth
    Say that if they were bound for a ball or a bath
    Don't be startin' them fashions, now Mary McCree
    Where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea

    I've seen England's King from the top of a bus
    And I never knew him, though he means to know us
    And though by the Saxon we once were oppressed
    Still, I cheered, God forgive me, I cheered with the rest
    And now that he's visited Erin's green shore
    We'll be much better friends than we've been heretofore
    When we've got all we want, we're as quiet as can be
    Where the Mountains o' Mourne sweep down to the sea

    You remember young Peter O'Loughlin, of course
    Well, now here he's over here at the head of the Force
    I met him to-day, I was crossin' the Strand
    And he stopped the whole street with one wave of his hand
    And there we stood talking of days that are gone
    While the whole population of London looked on
    But for all these great powers, he's wishful like me
    To be back where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea

    There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind
    With beautiful shapes nature never designed
    And lovely complexions all roses and cream
    But let me remark with regard to the same
    That if that those roses you venture to sip
    The colours might all come away on your lip
    So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me
    In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea

    Christine's Tune (aka Devil In Disguise) Composer(s): Gram Parsons - Chris Hillman First release by: The Flying Burrito Brothers - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists



    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Now a woman like that all she does is hate you
    She doesn't know what makes a man a man
    She'll talk about the time that she's been with you
    She'll speak your name to everyone she can

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Unhappiness has been her close companion
    Her world is full of jealously and doubt
    It gets her off to see a person crying
    She's just the kind that you can do without

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Her number always turns up in your pocket
    Whenever you are looking for a dime
    It's all right to call her, but I'll bet you
    The moon is full and you're just wasting time.

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Rednecks
    Composer(s): Randy Newman
    Performer(s): Randy Newman



    Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show
    With some smart-ass New York Jew
    And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox
    And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too
    Well, he may be a fool but he's our fool
    If they think they're better than him they're wrong
    So I went to the park and I took some paper along
    And that's where I made this song

    We talk real funny down here
    We drink too much and we laugh too loud
    We're too dumb to make it in no Northern town
    And we're keepin' the niggers down

    We got no-necked oilmen from Texas
    And good ol' boys from Tennessee
    And colleges men from LSU
    Went in dumb - come out dumb too
    Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes
    Gettin' drunk every weekend at the barbecues
    And they're keepin' the niggers down

    Chorus
    We're rednecks, rednecks
    And we don't know our ass from a hole in the ground
    We're rednecks, we're rednecks
    And we're keeping the niggers down

    Now your northern nigger's a Negro
    You see he's got his dignity
    Down here we're too ignorant to realize
    That the North has set the nigger free

    Yes he's free to be put in a cage
    In Harlem in New York City
    And he's free to be put in a cage in the South-Side of Chicago
    And the West-Side
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland
    And he's free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston
    They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around
    Keepin' the niggers down

    Chorus

    ((French Version: Non Ne Lui Dis Pas (Les Chaussettes Noires) - 1962))
    Composer(s): Dick St. John
    First release by: Dick and Deedee - 1961



    The mountain's high and the valley's so deep
    Can't get across to the other side
    Don't you give up baby, don't you cry
    Don't you give up til I reach the other side
    I was lonely baby, I couldn't sleep
    The night they tood you from my side
    I was a lonely soul until you became my goal
    And then I saw the spark of love
    And then the stars fell from up above, oh yeah
    I know someday we will meet again
    But I don't k ow exactly where or when
    But baby, if fate has its way
    We'll meet again some other day
