Story Behind The Song
It's just an idea I had upon observing how over-scheduled today's kids are. They don't ever seem to be just hanging around anymore.
Song Description
This song is the antidote for today's over-scheduled families. It's about a day when there are no lessons, no games, no school, nothing scheduled, and the child can just hang around with the family all day.

Lyrics
Hangin' Around
Words & Music by Judy Pancoast © 2003
VERSE ONE
Don't got no lessons I don't got no games;
Everything's cancelled cause of pouring rain
And it's a good day (good day) for hanging around.
Turn off the clock and Mama put away those keys;
We're gonna spend this day doin' what we please
Cause it's a good day (good day) for hanging around
CHORUS:
Hanging around, Hanging around,
Hanging around, Hanging around
VERSE TWO:
We got a million games we haven't played,
We got some recipes we haven't made,
And it's a good day (good day) for hanging around
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
And there's nothing I would rather do
Then spend the whole day hanging around with you!
VERSE THREE:
Just hold me close to you when day is done;
Say we did nothing but it sure was fun...
It was a good day (good day) for hanging around
REPEAT CHORUS
