Children's Music CD
WELCOME TO GARDEN STREET |
| |
In the world of childrens music, a world tightly controlled
by Disney, Barney and Sesame Street, it takes a voice of unique
innovation to break the mold, get attention and make a beautiful
noise.With WELCOME TO GARDEN STREET, Jim Salestrom and
Nancy Mills have done just that. They have created an intelligent
family CD, music that can be played at home, on long trips, or wherever
you go without driving adults crazy or children to boredom. Thats
a fine line to walk, but listen once and youll realize that
they have accomplished it here.

Incidentally, Jim Salestrom is one of the best known studio musicians
in the country, having recorded with and played background for John Denver,
Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Pure Prairie League, and
the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Hes traveled and performed all over
the world and played for four United States Presidents. And yet, the latest challenge is the greatest challenge; breaking into
a tight market with set ideas, thanks to an innovative
and creative approach to music, imagery and fun.
And isnt that what children's music should really be about?

| WHAT
KIND OF MUSIC DOES A WATCHBAND PLAY? |
NEVER
EAT CABBAGE ON THURSDAY |
The secrets I
think to the universe
Can be found buried deep in our hearts
The answers may blow in the wind some may say
Im convinced that theyre not very smart
Its the questions and the way that you ask them
That will help you get by day by day
You may not always find out an answer
But theyre great fun to ask anyway!
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day.
Why, if you can clean a guitar pick
Cant you pick that same guitar clean?
And do you think there are 88 locks to go with
The 88 keys, black and
green?
Could Washington have just one Walla
Can you tune the scales on a fish?
Should you wave at the amber fields growing grain?
Can a spoon really run with a dish?
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day.
And why does a watch
face have hands on it?
Can the willow wind whistle a tune?
Is a quarterback change from McDonalds?
Should you try and cheer up a blue moon?
Does a bush pilot really fly bushes?
Look its an oleander up in the sky!
Is the sticker price the price of the sticker?
And why do we always ask why?
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day
What kind of music does a watch band play
I believe its ragtime, all the live long day.
There are may more questions, Im certain
You can maybe think of some too!
The questions are best; the answers are strange,
How can you live in a shoe?
And why does a watch face have hands on it?
Can the willow wind whistle a tune?
Is a quarterback change form McDonalds?
Should you try and cheer up a blue moon?
And why does a watch face have hands on it?
Can the willow wind whistle a tune?
Is a quarterback change from McDonalds?
Should you try and cheer up a blue moon |
There are some things
you always should do
And some things on the list of never
After youve glued the cat to the wall
Try and be charming witty and clever baby
Be sure you wear a sweater
When your mom says that shes cold
When the markets up, hedge your bets
Invest in a little gold!
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays, no, no, no,
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays
Now listen as I sing this verse,
The message is one to keep
Youll probably end up singing real loud
This chorus in your sleep!
Dont deposit your money in a snow bank
But save for a rainy day
A penny saved is a penny earned
Remember just a few clichés
Go to school on the days you have to
Sleep late on the days you dont
Do your homework with zeal
And dont miss a meal, take a bath
Well you will or you wont!
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays, no, no, no,
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays
Fried chicken you can eat with your fingers
A spoon not a fork for soup
Wednesdays the day for tuna sands
A roller coaster loops the loop
Sandals with your snow suit
May not be the very best look
So find your own style, eat peas by the mile
Tip your hat to the gourmet cook
But never eat cabbage on Thursday
You may be short but your shadow is tall
Sit up straight at the table
Dont call your dad Mable
And never eat cabbage at all!
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays, no, no, no,
But ever, never, never, never, never, never, never
Eat cabbage on Thursdays
But never eat cabbage on Thursday
You may be short but your shadow is tall
Sit up straight at the table
Dont call your dad Mable
And never eat cabbage at all! |
