L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore

sung by Nat King Cole

Unknown said...

C is for the Christ child
Born upon this day,
H for herald angels in the night

C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S
I think I heard it sung by Perry Como or one of those guys

Sylvia said...

there was a farmer had a dog and bingo was his name-o
B I N G O, B I N G O

Heaz said...

A, you're adorable
B, you're so beautiful

You must take the "A" train
To go to Sugar Hill way up in Harlem
If you miss the "A" train
You'll find you missed the quickest way to Harlem

(Duke Ellington)

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away

"R" is for Argyle.

I am a C
I am a C-H
I am a C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N...

-Sunday school song

Margaret said...

A hardy has an appetite and pokes at food too long
And B can barely bother because all the food is wrong
C eats only candy and chocolate by the box
And D just isn't interested in anything you've got
But E eats everything
Yeah E eats everything

"E eats everything", They Might be Giants, album "Here come the ABC's" and pretty much any song from that album would work today

Heaz said...

C is for cookie
That's good enough for me

-Sesame Street

Sarah said...

The world ain't ready for nothin' like Y-O-U

Margaret said...

D duh D duh D is such a very nice letter
Each day I like it better
This lovely letter called D duh dee duh dee (having fun!)
And now indeed we are done

The letter D, as sung by Ernie

Sarah said...

G to the O, O to the D, T with an I, M with an E
That spells good time

Alan Jackson

Margaret said...

How would you like to buy an "O", round and neat
A nearly perfect circle
Tidy and complete
You can sing a pretty song with it like so
oh - o
oh - o
oh - o
Ain't that catchy now


Another sesame street song (Ernie is the prospective purchaser of the O)

Deborah in IL said...

F-R-E-E that spells free
credit report dot com baby

Sarah said...

You down with O.P.P.?

Whose down with O.P.P.?

Oh what is the letter we love,
what sound are we extra fond of,
It's not any trouble,
you know it's a W
when you where /w-w-w-w/

National Association of W Lovers
-Ernie & Bert on Sesame Street

Margaret said...

You can treat her all day with Vitamin A and bromo fizz
But you'll never get near (something something) to where the problem is
If she's getting a kind of a name for herself and the name ain't his
A person can develop a cold

Adelaide's Lament, Guys and Dolls

Margaret said...

I hope and I pray
That Hester will earn just one more "A"
The sadder but wiser girl's the the girl for me
The sadder but wiser girl for me

from The Music Man

Margaret said...

Oh we've got trouble (trouble trouble trouble)
Right here in River City (Right here!)
With a capital T
And that rhymes with P
And that stands for Pool

From the Music man

Margaret said...

(Prarie Dawn sings):
Now here is a question, a question for you
Remember the answer begins with a Q
In stores we find milk in containers of sorts
And what do we call them?
We call these things-
(Grover): Cows!
(P.D.) No Grover, Quarts. The answer is quarts.

A Q song from Sesame street. Their ABC album is nice (and has the W song Diana posted which is a great song)

Margaret said...

I'm Sammy the Snake and I look like the letter S

Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with A-B-C
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi

Do-Re-Mi from Sound of Music

We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand!
And when we say
Yeeow! Aye-yip-aye-yo-ee-ay!
We're only sayin'
You're doin' fine, Oklahoma!
Oklahoma
O - K - L - A - H - O - M - A
OKLAHOMA!
Yeeow!


Oklahoma by Rodgers & Hammerstein

A is for apple, B is for beans;
Corn, dill, eggs, French fries, greens.
What ya got so far? Look and see:
A B C D E F G.
What?
A B C D E F G!

Ab-ka-def-ghi-jekl-monop-que-stew-ixes,
It's the most remarkable word I've ever seen.
It starts out like an "A" word,
As anyone can see,
But somewher in the middle
It gets awful queer to me!

--Big Bird on "Sesame Street," trying to sound out the alphabet as if it was one long word.
