All Gods Critters Got a Place in the Choir

All God's critters got a place in the choir

Some sing low, some sing higher

Some sing out loud on the telephone wire

And some just clap their hands, or paws

Or anything they got. (Everyone make a noise with their instrument)

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

Where the bullfrog croaks and the hippopotamus

Moans and groans with a big to-do

The old cow just goes MOOOOO

The dog and the cat pick up the middle

While the honey bee hums and the cricket fiddles

The donkey brays and the pony neighs

And the old coyote howls

All God's critters got a place in the choir

Some sing low, some sing higher

Some sing out loud on the telephone wire

And some just clap their hands, or paws

Or anything they got. (Everyone make a noise with their instrument)

Listen to the top where the little birds sing

On the melody with the high note ringing

The hoot owl hollars over everything

And the jaybird disagrees

Singin' in the night-time, singin' in the day

Little duck quacks, and he's on his way

The possum ain't got much to say

And the porcupine talks to himself

All God's critters got a place in the choir

Some sing low, some sing higher

Some sing out loud on the telephone wire

And some just clap their hands, or paws

Or anything they got. (Everyone make a noise with their instrument)

It's a simple song of livin' sung everywhere

By the ox and the fox and the grizzly bear

Grumpy alligator and the hawks above

Sly raccoon and the turtle dove.

All God's critters got a place in the choir

Some sing low, some sing higher

Some sing out loud on the telephone wire

And some just clap their hands, or paws

Or anything they got. (Everyone make a noise with their instrument)
