Repeat-After-Me Song List

Repeat-After-Me Songs (or Call and Answer Songs) are camp songs in which the leader (or part of the group) calls out a line of the song and the rest of the group repeats it back to them. Singing a new song as a Repeat-After-Me Song is a great way to help campers learn the lyrics and actions.

You can let your campers know that you’re about to sing a Repeat-After-Me Song by saying one of the following and having your campers say it back to you to start the song.

  • “This is a Repeat-After-Me song!”
  • “This song is a Neato-Repeato!” / “That means you do what I do!” / “And you say what I say!”
  • “This is a Repeat-After-Me song!” / “And a do as I do song!” / “So if we’re standing!” / “You should too!” – submitted by Stephanie
  • “It’s a Repeat-After-Me song, what is it?” / “It’s a sing LOUDER than me song, what is it?” – submitted by Jas
  • “This is repeat after me song / So everything I say and do / You say and do” – submitted by Casey T

  2. My camp I went to… the 5 councelors in our group would walk around the campfire in a circle while we were all on the logs. Then one of them would do a camp song.

    they’d say

    This is a repeat after me song
    (repeat)
    And a do as I do song

    And then they’d start!

  3. Ours was, “This is a repeat after me song,” repeat. “Which means you have to say,” repeat. “And do,” repeat. “Everything,” repeat. “That I,” repeat. “Do.”

  4. My camp said
    “I have a repeat after me song!”
    Repeat
    “And it’s got some motions!”
    Repeat
    It’s really fun!!!

  5. We start with:
    “this is a repeat after me song”
    (camp repeats)
    “when we stand we sing”
    (camp repeats)
    “and when we sing we stand”
    (camp repeats)

  6. We always say, “THIS IS A REPEAT AND ANSWER SONG!” And the campers say, “THIS IS A REPEAT AND ANSWER SONG!”

  7. Up In A Tree!
    (Repeat)
    Where The Beetles roam free!
    (Repeat)
    I saw Cat!
    (Repeat)
    And it said to me!
    (Repeat)
    Cmon up! Cmon up! Get up here!
    (Repeat)
    Cmon up and dance with me!
    (Repeat)
    Meow,meow, me-meow meow meow (while puttin your paws out like a cat)
    (Repeat)
    Then continue with different animials and funny motions each time saying all the other animials motions and words.

  8. We do this:

    “This is a repeat song!”
    (campers repeat)
    “You do what I do and you say what I say”
    (campers repeat)
    When doing “You do what I do and you say what I say”, you wave each hand.

    -Song Starts-

  9. Instead of “This is a repeat after me song” to start a repeat song my girl scout camp says, “This is a repeat song”, instead of “This is a repeat after me song”

  12. “This is a repeat after me song”
    (campers repeat)
    “It’s also a do as I do ditty”
    (campers repeat)
    Start song with motions

  13. Our camp went
    ‘ this is the repeat after me song what is it’
    Repeat
    ‘ this is the sing louder than me song what is it’

  14. We just start simply. I shout “This is a repeat after me song!”
    My troop shouts back (Okay!!)
    I yell “No, that means you say what I say, and do what I do!! Now, This is a repeat after me song!”
    They repeat, and we start. Btw, there’s a fun repeat after me song called Percy The Pale Faced Polar Bear.

  16. What I say …..This is a repeat after me song.
    What they say…after me song..😂😂😂😂
    And the campers love it

  18. “This is a repeat after me song”
    Repeat
    “So you say what I say”
    Repeat
    “And you do what I do”

  22. We do it as
    “This is a repeat after me song!”
    camp repeats
    “So you gotta do what I do!’
    Person teaching the song does a funny dance move.
    “And you gotta say what I say!”
    Performer does another dance move.
    “And If you step in something icky,”
    Performer wipes their foot,
    “You gotta jump in the lake!”
    If the camp doesn’t have a lake, then the performer can say
    “You gotta wipe it on ____.”
    The blank could be a counselor or a mascot, or something silly.
    OR
    “You gotta wipe it away!”

  23. COCONUT SONG (repeat)
    C, O, C, O, N, U T.
    C! O! C! O! N! U! T!
    Coconut, Coconut, MWAH!
    BUT WAIT!
