I CAN READ CD
I CAN READ ©2003, Purly Gates
Lyrics & Music by Purly Gates
1) When I read a book you know,
It’s printed in black and white
The most amazing thing takes
place
As I read what the author writes
2)The words make pictures in my mind
With colors bright and new
And then my eyes will begin to see
An awesome, different view
Chorus: ‘Cause I can read, read, read,
I can read, read, read,
Words and pictures dancin’
in
Color the world I see
(Yes) I can read, read,
read
I can read, read, read
Every page I turn
will
Color the world for me
3) Now anytime it’s raining,
Or I’m stuck in my room,
I can travel anywhere
And paint away the gloom
Repeat chorus
4) Rainbows are full of colors
Colors are full of light
When I fill up on stories,
It makes my world so bright
Repeat chorus

WRITE A STORY ©2006, Purly Gates
Lyrics by Purly Gates; Music by Sally Rogers
Chorus: I’m gonna write a story , nobody but me could write
(2x)
1) I’ve got a good idea, gonna think it
through
Fill in details,
so it’s clear to you
Repeat
chorus
2) I can pull you in,
if I use a hook
With a twist and an end, organize like a book
Repeat
chorus
3) The words will talk
so my voice shines through
Comin’ from my
heart from me to you
Repeat
chorus
4) Find the very best words have to pick and choose
Exactly what I need
precisely what I use
Repeat
chorus
5) My sentences
will
be good to read aloud
Some long some
short gonna do me proud
Repeat
chorus
6) Check the spelling now punctuation too
Use
paragraphs
to make it clear to you
Repeat
chorus
