Oh my goodness! I’m loving…
Oh my goodness! I’m loving this message board! I grew up in Philly playing games with my sisters and friends AND was a girlscout from Brownie to Cadet. Even went to camp four years straight. (Anybody here do Camp Laughing Waters in Gilbertsville, PA from 1969 to 1972?) One song my sisters, friends and I sang: Everybody’s doin’ it, doin’ it, doin’ it Pickin’ their nose and chewin’ it, chewin’ it. Put it in a pot and whataya got? French fried boogers and a bowl of snot! (Are kids disgusting or what? ROFL!) We used to sing the “Sippin Cider Through A Straw” song in girlscout meetings. :> My mom taught us the “Found a Peanut” song. Yep, Joanne, those are the verses she taught us. :>
I am trying to remember…
I am trying to remember some songs people used to sing in school., mostly sung to other tunes. I could only remember a few. Isn’t it funny how a lot of the games/songs/rhymes are rather, uh, rude/crude? I think these would get you kicked out if you sang em in school now!! (sung to ‘Joy to the world’) Joy to the world, the teacher’s dead. We barbequed her head! What happened to the body? We flushed it down the potty! And round and round it goes! And round and round it goes! And rou-ound! and round, and round it goes! (Sung to ‘deck the halls’) Deck the halls with gasoliiine! fa la la la la, la la la la Light the match and watch it gleam! fa la la la la, la la la la Now the school is burnt to ashes! fa la la, fa la la, fa la la Aren’t you glad you played with matches? Fa la la la la, la la la la.

I liked this one a lot: Old Mother Hubbard Went to the cupboard To fetch her poor dog a bone, But when she got there, The cupboard was bare, So she threw it out the window, The window, the sixteenth-story window, the window, the window, the sixteenth-story window. Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Jack jumped over the candlestick- And fe-ell out the window, The window, the sixteenth-story window, the window, the window, the sixteenth-story window. Little Bo Peep Has lost her sheep, And doesn’t know where to find them; But leave them alone, When they come home, She’ll throw them out the window, The window, the sixteenth-story window, the window, the window, the sixteenth-story window. Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey; When along came a spider, Who sat right down beside her, She threw it out the window, The window, the sixteenth-story window, the window, the window, the sixteenth-story window. Jack and Jill Went up the hill To fetch a pail of water; Jack fell down And broke his crown, And threw it out the window, The window, the sixteenth-story window, the window, the window, the sixteenth-story window. You can just keep going on like that, a lot of nursery ryhmes will fit into the pattern, just pick any rhyme and stick it in there: Old King Cole, Peter Peter Pumkin Eater, Jack Horner, and etc all will fit in)
