That sunday night i guess the folks were busy fightin
joe had already left home
11 yrs old on my own feelin nuthin but lonely
theres nothing to do nothin but traffic down on state 93
so id sit through the night by our old black and white tv
and thats when i saw it
thats when i heard it
calling
calling
meeeeeeeeee
disneyland
magic kingdom, disneyland
close my eyes real tight
wishin hard i might
wishin hard i may
find my way to disneyland
make my home in disneyland
maybe its all fake
and thats a chance ill take
its perfectly ok
someone give me disneyland
take me there to disneyland
and when i get to disneyland
i'll stay

googled "lyrics disneyland" and i see leann rimes did a song called "remember when" with DL in the lyrics for the 50th anniv.

and there's a 5 for fighting song about DL but i'm not sure they have a female singer.

 

[bumbershoot]

ok, mine were wrong.

google "make my home in disneyland".

you'll be shown two results. the main one will show you a thread that gives you what seems to be the answer in post 8..."sung by Ariel herself, Jodi Benson. It's from the musical Smile."

This is a song from "Smile"- the flop Broadway Musical called "Disneyland."

Hot Sunday night, I guess the folks were busy fighting
Joe'd already left home
Eleven years old on my own feeling nothing but lonely
Nothing to do, there's nothing out there but the traffic
Down on 'state 93
So I'd sit through the night by our old black and white TV
That's where I saw it
That's when I heard it
Calling, calling me

Disneyland
Magic Kingdom
Disneyland
I Close my eyes real tight wishing hard I might
Wishing hard I may
Find my way to
Disneyland
Gotta get to
Disneyland
On a western breeze, magic carpet please
Carry me away

Oh, I know you're gonna say the trees are paper mache
It's done with mirrors, the magic there
Each little bird's full of springs
You press a button music it sings
Recorded music in the air
They've had the mountain replaced
It's only plywood and paste-- go on, say it
I'll turn around and tell you I don't care
I don't care.

I will live in Disneyland
Make my home in Disneyland
Maybe it's all fake
That's a chance I'll take
It's perfectly OK
Someone give me Disneyland
Take me there, to Disneyland
And when I get to Disneyland
I'll Stay


The woman who does Ariel's voice is the singer..

On the DVC cruise last October, we got to hear her sing that song and explain how she started with Disney and she also sang a few other songs as well and told us all the voices she's done.

She was amazing and so was that song.

Here she is that night on the cruise:
