If I Were A Butterfly

On the Ukulele! I just randomly wanted to play it.. Haha, reminds me of my childhood.

The Butterfly Song
(If I Were a Butterfly)
Words and Music by Brian M. Howard


If I were a butterfly,
I'd thank You God for giving me wings
If I were a robin in a tree
I'd thank you Lord that I could sing
If I were a fishy in the sea
I'd wiggle my tail and giggle with glee
But I just thank You, Father for making me, me

CHORUS
'Cause You gave me a heart and You gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus and You made me Your child
So I just thank You Father for making me, me

If I were an elephant
I'd thank You Lord by raising my trunk
If I were a kangaroo,
You know I'd hop right up to You
If I were an octopus
I'd thank You Lord for my good looks
But I just thank You Father for making me, me

If I were a wiggly worm
I'd thank You, Lord that I could squirm
If I were a fuzzy wuzzy bear
I'd thank You Lord for my fuzzy wuzzy hair
If I were a crocodile
I'd thank You, Lord for my big smile
But I just thank You, Father, for making me, me

@angie4josh what's wrong with you? If you don't like Mav79's song, don't listen. Gosh, grow up!!

[Mav79]

@angie4josh No I've got nothing else to say.. One of us is right, the other is wrong, and we'll have to face the consequences of our choices..

I think you did great with the song my 2 year old ask everynight is she can hear you sing. she sang the song at preschool and thinks it's neat that someone else knows it. Thank you :)

@flipflap95 I didn't actually find it specifically for you. I already knew about their website because they contacted me about putting their copyright information down on the video..

Yup, I didn't know you were being sarcastic or humorous... It's funny thing about written communication, especially on the internet... those kinds of nuances get lost.

I also find it funny that you initiated this whole conversation and now you're the one "bored" about it. But ahh well. God bless you anyway.

@dontwhine1

Obviously you do otherwise you wouldn't have replied in the first place...

[dontwhine1]

@flipflap95 do i care

[flipflap95]

@Mav79

I find it sad that you actually took time out of your day to find that website and give it to someone who really couldn't care less

it was a light hearted comment and clearly you don't understand sarcasm of humour.

to me and everyone else I know and who went to my primary school those lyrics are incorrect.

Please go and do something else with your time, you're boring me now x
