Back Country Horsemen Parade (song for children)
(Verse 1)
We’re the Back Country Horsemen on the trail,
With a donkey named Dot who likes to wag her tail,
We pack up our gear, we’re ready to go,
If the squirrels don’t steal our trail mix, y’know!
(Chorus)
Clip-clop, giddy-up, hold on to your hat,
We’re riding in the mountains with a goat and a cat,
We clear the trail, we laugh all day,
’Cause the Back Country Horsemen are on their way!
(Verse 2)
We’ve got mules that can dance and ponies that hum,
A rooster that rides—he’s chewing on gum,
We carry our saws and big ol’ pack sacks,
And a dog who insists on wearing sunglasses!
(Chorus)
Clip-clop, giddy-up, hold on to your hat,
We’re riding in the mountains with a goat and a cat,
We clear the trail, we laugh all day, ’
Cause the Back Country Horsemen are on their way!
(Bridge)
We’ll move the logs, we’ll fix the fence,
We’ll trade bad jokes that make no sense,
We’ll splash in streams, eat beans for lunch,
Then gallop away with a CRUNCH-CRUNCH-CRUNCH!
(Verse 3)
When the moon comes up, we sit by the fire,
Sing silly songs till our voices get higher,
The horses all yawn, the mules say “Hee-haw,”
And the goat tries to sleep in my brand-new straw hat!
(Final Chorus)
Clip-clop, giddy-up, hold on to your hat,
We’re riding in the mountains with a goat and a cat,
We clear the trail, we laugh all day,
’Cause the Back Country Horsemen are here to stay!

Chicken Little (song for children)
[Verse 1]
Chicken Little woke one day,
Felt the sky was on its way,
“Gotta warn the world before it’s too late!”
But the forest was wide, the hills were tall,
So she joined the Back Country Horsemen, saddle and all,
Ready to prove her wild, feathery fate.
[Chorus]
“Pack up the burro, let’s hit the trail,
Over the ridges through snow and hail,
We’re climbing high, where the eagles call,
To see if the sky is gonna fall!”
The Back country Horsemen laughed and said,
“Chicken, you’re one brave bird for someone miss-led!”
[Verse 2]
They gave her a donkey named Ol’ Two-Toes,
With ears so long they tickled her nose,
She learned to ride, though her spurs were small,
Through aspen groves and granite ledge,
They wound their way up Heaven’s Edge,
To where the clouds looked ready to fall.
[Chorus]
“Pack up the burro, let’s hit the trail,
Over the ridges through snow and hail,
We’re climbing high, where the eagles call,
To see if the sky is gonna fall!”
The Back Country Horsemen laughed and said,
“Chicken, you’re one brave bird for some one miss-lead!”
[Bridge]
At the peak of Idaho’s crown, She looked at the world all spread out below,
The clouds rolled by, but stayed in the sky,
She clucked and laughed with a happy sigh:
“Turns out the sky ain’t falling at all— Guess I’m just short and the clouds look tall!”
[Final Chorus]
“Pack up the burro, we rode the trail,
Over the ridges through snow and hail,
We climbed so high, where the eagles call,
Turns out the sky’s not gonna fall!”
The Back country Horsemen tipped their hats,
To the bravest chicken—imagine that!
[Tag]
So if you fear the sky might drop,
Join the Horsemen and ride to the top,
You’ll find the truth where the mountain’s tall—
And maybe you’ll see, it’s not falling at all
Bears on the Trail (song for children)
[Verse 1]
The Back Country Horsemen saddled up at dawn
Riding through the mountains where the tall pines yawn
We packed our gear
The trail was clear
The creek was running fast
Didn’t know this mountain ride would be one to last!
[Chorus]
Whoa-ho! Look who’s there on the mountain bend—
Marsha the bear With a picnic to lend
Smokey says “Careful! No campfires here!”
Yogi’s grinning wide with a cooler of beer!
[Verse 2]
We climbed the ridge where the aspens sway
Saw claw marks carved where the grizzlies play
Tracks in the mud and a paw so wide
They led us to a clearing where the bears abide
[Chorus]
Whoa-ho! Look who’s there on the mountain bend—
Marsha the bear With a picnic to lend
Smokey says “Careful! No campfires here!”
Yogi’s grinning wide with a cooler of beer!
[Bridge]
The cubs were tumbling The honey pots spilled
A jar of jam on the hillside tilled
We laughed and waved And they danced around
A bear jamboree in the wilderness sound!
[Chorus]
Whoa-ho! Look who’s there on the mountain bend—
Marsha the bear with a picnic to lend
Smokey says “Careful! No campfires here!”
Yogi’s grinning wide with a cooler of beer!
Peach Cobbler Bears (song for children)
(Verse 1)
Ma Bear, Pa Bear, Bo Bo too,
Came home laughin’ like bears will do,
Looked in the corral—what did they see?
A long-eared mule starin’ back at me!
(Chorus)
Peach cobbler in the kitchen, yum yum yum,
Back Country Horseman bangin’ on a drum,
Cast iron pot goin’ bubble-bubble-bop,
Don’t stop stirrin’ till the cobbler pops!
(Verse 2)
Pa Bear said, “Who’s cookin’ in here?”
Horseman said, “Cobblers for the bears, my dear!”
Bo Bo danced and clapped his paws,
Ma Bear laughed with her big bear jaws.
(Chorus)
Peach cobbler in the kitchen, yum yum yum,
Back Country Horseman bangin’ on a drum,
Mule in the corral sayin’ “hee-haw-hee,”
Cobbler for the Horseman, cobbler for me!
