It's in The Book (Parts 1 and 2)
Johnny Standley

I have a message for you - a very sad message!
My subject for this evening will be Little Bo Peep
It says here, "Little Bo Peep, who was a little girl,
has lost her sheep,"
"And doesn't know where to find them"
Now that's reasonable, isn't it?
It's, it's reasonable to assume, if Little Bo Peep had lost her sheep,
It's only natural that she wouldn't know where to find them
That, that basically is reasonabl-l-le, but, uh, "leave them alone"
Now that overwhelms me, ? completely overwhelms me
The man said she lost her sheep, turns right around and boldly states,
"She doesn't know where to find them"
And then has the stupid audacity to say, "Leave them alone"!
Now! Now, now think for a moment! Think!
If the sheep were lost, and you couldn't find them,
You'd have to leave them alone, wouldn't you?
So, "Leave them alone" "Leave them alone"
It's in the book!

"Leave them alone and they", they being the sheep, "they will come
home"
Ah yes, they'll come home
Oh, there'll be a brighter day tomorrow, they will come home!
It's in the book

"They will come home?a-waggin' their tailsBR Good for everything in the home,
BRAnd the secret was in the scrubbing,
BRIt wouldn't suds and couldn't foam
BR
BRThen let us sing right out of grandma's, of grandma's lye soap
BRUsed for - for everything, everything on the place,
BRFor pots and kettles, the dirty dishes, and for your hands and for
BRyour face
BR
BRSo we'll now sing the second verse
BRLet's get it with great exuberance, let's live it up
BRIt's not raining inside tonight
BREveryone, let's have a happy time
BRAre we ready? All together, the second verse
BR
BRLittle Herman and brother Thurman
BRHad an aversion to washing their ears
BRGrandma scrubbed them with the lye soap
BRAnd they haven't heard a word in years
BR
BRThen let us sing right out of grandma's, of grandma's lye soap
BRSing all out, all over the place
BRThe pots and kettles, the dirty dishes, and also hands and also f?
BR(clapping fades)
BR
BRWell, let's sing what's left of the last verse
BRLet's have a happy time, everyone
BRThe last verse, al-l-l-l together
BREv-v-v-very one!
BR
BRMm-m-m-m Thank you kindly, kindly,
BRM-m-mrs O'Malley, out in the valley,
BRSuffered from Ulcers, I understand
BRShe swallowed a cake of grandma's lye soap,
BRHas the cleanest ulcers in the land
BR
BRThen let us sing right out of grandma's, of grandma's lye soap
BRSing right out All over the place
BRThe pots and - the pots and pans, oh dirty dishes,
BRAnd the hands
BR
