December Update #10: Children's Choir


If you have a child, grandchild, great-grandchild of any age that would like to join us on stage, please comment so that we can gauge interest.  There will be a rehearsal for the children’s choir on Wednesday, December 21 at 5:45 p.m. in room W252 (old Girls Gym).

Due to a death in the family, the young woman who was planning to help us with the children’s choir will not be able to join us.  We would still LOVE to give the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of South High Alumni the opportunity to sing a short song, one that is familiar to many of us, Roger Miller’s “Old Toy Trains”, which we sang as “Little Toy Trains”.  I have uploaded an mp3 file to www.southhighsings.com (password is “cubs”).  Here is a link to Glen Campbell’s rendition of this song and following are the lyrics:

Little toy trains, little toy tracks
Little toy drums coming from a sack
Carried by a man dressed in white and red
Little boy, don't you think it's time you were in bed?

Close your eyes
Listen to the skies
All is calm, all is well
Soon you'll hear Kris Kringle and the jingle bells

Bringin' little toy trains, little toy tracks
Little toy drums coming from a sack
Carried by a man dressed in white and red
Little boy, don't you think it's time you were in bed?

Close your eyes
Listen to the skies
All is calm, all is well
Soon you'll hear Kris Kringle and the jingle bells

Bringin' little toy trains, little toy tracks
Little toy drums coming from a sack
Carried by a man dressed in white and red
Little boy, don't you think it's time you were in bed?
Little boy, don't you think it's time you were in bed?
