Arrange And Re-Arrange Songtext / Lyric

Just a few winters ago, I was out in the snow

Gettin' some fire wood to start the fire

'Cause we heated our house with wood

And I look at the sun peakin' up

Over the mountain, I had an idea for a song

Early in the mornin', I first see the sun

I say a little prayer for the world

I hope all the little children live a long, long time

Yes, every little boy and little girl

I hope they learn to laugh at the way

Some precious old words seem to change

'Cause that's what life is all about

To arrange and rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Early in the mornin', I'm a gatherin' the sap

I say a little prayer for the maple

Like old Mama Quad, on the northwest slope

I'll protect her as long as I'm able

She gives more sap every year

Than any single other tree

So bring on the pancakes, here's to Mama Quad

May she live for another century

Oh-wee, oh-wye, may she live

For another century

Oh-wee, oh-wye, may she live

For another century

Sometimes I wake in the middle of the night

And rub my achin' old eyes

Is that a voice from inside my head

Or does it come down from the sky?

There's a time to laugh but there's a time to weep

A time to make a big change

Wake up, you bum, the time has come

To arrange and rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Maybe the biggest change will come

When we don't have to change much at all

When maniacs holler, grow, grow, grow

We can choose to be small

The key word may be little

We only have to change a little bit

Eat a little food, drink a little drink

And only have to

Early in the mornin', I first see the sun

I say a little prayer for the world

I hope all the little children live a long, long time

Every little boy and little girl

I hope they learn to laugh at the way

Some wicked old words seem to change

'Cause that's what life's all about

To arrange and rearrange and rearrange

Sing it

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Once more

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange

Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange

And rearrange and rearrange
