Love the Public Library

Original Tune: Little Brown Jug 1869
Recording: Written by Margie Villani 11/21//25

CHORUS

C F

Ha, ha, ha, you and me

G7 C

Love the Public Li-brar-ree

F

We can read Free! Free! Free!

G7 C

We so love the library.

Lots of books in stacks galore

Every subject to explore

Lots of ideas for us to read-
Then we decide what we believe.

CHORUS

Who decides what’s kept on hand

As knowl-edge and ideas expand

Not a fringe so-ci-ety

No ma’am, No sir, No sir ee.

CHORUS

Li-bra-rians know their stuff

Running a library ain’t kid stuff

Liberal conservative old or new

Li-brar-ians do it all for you.

CHORUS

Don’t make decisions you’ll regret
More book bans mean you will get
More ideas that are suppressed
Leaving democracy oppressed.
