Oh Jonah he was desperate
In the belly of the whale
Well Jonah had a plan
He knew he couldn't fail He raised his head on high
And looking for the sky
And sang his song so pretty
The whale told him goodbye You got to sing you children sing
Sing you children sing
I only know one thing
Hey, hey, hey Sing you children sing
Everybody
Sing you children sing
Sing your troubles away Well Moses said good Lord
Open up these waters for me
So I can get Your children
Across the salty sea Well the Lord parted the waters
And singing hand in hand
Moses and the children
Walked over to the promised land You got to sing you children sing
Sing you children sing
I only know one thing
Hey, hey, hey Sing you children sing
Everybody
Sing you children sing
Sing your troubles away Oh Joshua had a plan
At the Walls of Jericho
He'd march around those walls
And on his horn he'd blow That horn would play a tune
And sing a happy song
When Joshua got through
Those walls came tumbling down You got to sing you children sing
Sing you children sing
I only know one thing
Hey, hey, hey Sing you children sing
Everybody
Sing you children sing
Sing your troubles away
You got to sing your troubles away Sing your troubles away
Sing your troubles away
Sing your troubles away
Sing your troubles away
