    HIGH HOPES
    By Cahn -- VanHeusen

    Clip to ScrapBook
       
    Wish I had thought of that. Did a google search. The name of the song is, "High Hopes." It's from the movie, "Going my Way" and was sung by Frank Sinatra. Wish I could have found a site with the melody because it has a fun catchy tune, but here are the words:

    High Hopes
    by Cahn and Van Heusen

    Next time your found, with your chin on the ground
    There's a lot to be learned, so look around

    Just what makes that little old ant
    Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
    Anyone knows an ant, can't
    Move a rubber tree plant

    But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
    He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

    So any time your gettin' low
    'stead of lettin' go
    Just remember that ant
    Oops there goes another rubber tree plant

    When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
    There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall

    Once there was a silly old ram
    Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
    No one could make that ram, scram
    He kept buttin' that dam

    'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
    He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes

    So any time your feelin' bad
    'stead of feelin' sad
    Just remember that ram
    Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam

    All problems just a toy balloon
    They'll be bursted soon
    They're just bound to go pop
    Oops there goes another problem kerplop
