My dad just found this book from 1969 in a box and sent it to me. Filled with silly little songs (right hand only) and super for practicing cold sight reading.

AND, I found it on Amazon for a penny if you want to get one.

Many songs have the music, and many just say, "to the tune of..." for some standard. But, there is plenty of music for the price.

And for added quality practice, you just play it once with RH, then once again with LH an octave down smile

I pray, that tomorrow I may strive to be a little better than I am today - and, on behalf of everybody else, I give thanks for headphones.

I buy stuff like that at yard sales when I run across it, just for sight-reading and fun. I have one from the 30s called "sociability music." It's a good cross-section of music everybody used to know, and in many cases has been mostly forgotten, except by weirdos like me.
