Welcome Home
[TOWNSPEOPLE]
To this small, little
Not too big, little homey
Nice, little, quaint, little always kindly
Old New England town
Welcome!
If you're new to the place
And feeling uneasy
Fret not a bit
In this always friendly
Old New England town
Welcome
Welcome
To our family picnic
July 4th picnic
Independence Day!
[MEN]
Whether next of kin or next-door neighbor
Happily, we pool our labor to give our town a new face
[TONY]
A nifty new look!
[JOE]
A red, white, and blue look!
[MEN]
And when we're done
You'll never know the place!
[TOWNSPEOPLE]
At our family picnic
July 4th picnic
Independence Day!
There's a buzzing in the air
Children running everywhere
As all of us prepare
For that once-a-year wonderful day!
And our spirits are so high
Feels like Christmas in July!
As we pray the hours fly
To that star-spangled
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day!
[FEMALE PUPPIES]
We can hardly wait to bathe and dress up
We love picnics we confess
Yup!
[LADY]
With Darling and with Jim Dear
We've made a home from which we'll never roam
[TRAMP]
Why would we when we're so contented here?
[LADY]
In this small, little, not too
[FEMALE PUPPIES]
Big, little, cozy
[FEMALE PUPPIES & LADY]
Warm, little, swell, little

In our small, little, not too big
Little, homey, nice, little
Quaint, little, always friendly
Old New England town!
Welcome!
