Collection: All God's Critters Got a Place in the Choir

Chorus

All God's critters got a place in the choir

some sing low and some sing higher

some sing out loud on a telephone wire

and some just clap their hands and paws

or anything they got now

Listen to the bass, it's the one on the bottom

where the bullfrogs croak and the hippopotamus

moans and groans with a big to-do

and the old cow just goes moo

The dogs and cats they pick of the middle

where the honey bees hum and the crickets fiddle

and the donkey brays and the pony neighs

and the old grey badger sighs

Chorus

All God's critters got a place in the choir

some sing low and some sing higher

some sing out loud on a telephone wire

and some just clap their hands and paws

or anything they got now

Listen to the top with the little bird singing

on the melody and the high notes ringing

and the hoot owl cries over everything

and the blackbird disagrees

Singing in the night time, singing in the day

the little duck quacks and is on his way

and the otter doesn't have much to say

and the porcupine talks to himself

It's a simple song of living sung everywhere

by the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear

by the humpy alligator and the hawk above

the shy old weasel and the turtle dove

Chorus

All God's critters got a place in the choir

some sing low and some sing higher

some sing out loud on a telephone wire

and some just clap their hands and paws

or anything they got now
