Homemade Band

Here's a little story 'bout a Homemade Band
Some friends of mine, they made by hand
Sally found a bowl and she hit it with a spoon
Then she smiled and sang this tune
She cried "oooh, ahhh"
And everyone could understand
That Sally was having fun
With the Homemade Band

Jackie found some bottle caps
And nailed them to a piece of wood
He shook that thing with a jing-a-ling
And it was really sounding good
He cried "oooh, ahhh"
And everyone could understand
That Jackie was having fun
With the Homemade Band

Steve and Susan saved some several soda cans
And empty glassy bottles too
They dropped in little beads, dried beans, or rice
And made some shakers, good as new

Rosa found some plywood scraps
And strips of wood that weren't too thick
With glue, she made a hollow block
And hit it with a little stick
She cried "oooh, ahhh"
And everyone could understand
That Rosa was having fun
With the Homemade Band

Alan had a wooden berry oatmeal box
He fished it from the kitchen trash
Then set it on the floor with some pots and pans
And played and rang a tuneful bash

Playing all together, you could hear their sound
Ringing all across the land
People came from everywhere to listen to
The rhythm of the Homemade Band
They cried "oooh, ahhh"
And everyone could understand
That my friends were having fun
With the Homemade Band
