Songs You Sang When You Were Little

[Country Kids]

The Animal Fair

but my mom taught me the original version and then one I can sing with the kiddo's.

[TheMisplacedMidwestMom]

Grandfather's Clock and The Cat Came Back are some of my favorites!!! Both ones I've heard recently as well on children's cds we got from the library.

Tom Paxton's The Worms Come Crawling Underground is one we recently discovered via "children's cd" at the library. It's from 2008, so they are still making questionable kids songs. And, maybe I'm just odd, but I love this type of song (actually I got a kick out of his whole cd):

Then again, I've also subjected my own children to:
The Cat Got Dead
Cows With Guns

[Miss A]

When I was 2, my absolute favorite some was "Hey Baby Lets Go To Vegas", by Faith Hill. There are multiple videos of me singing that one word for word.

But most of what I grew up on were nursery rhymes like "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". We also sang a lot of Sunday school songs.

[Homebody]

I'm a Cute a Little Dutch Girl
(there's several versions of this, and you play the clapping game like for "pat-a-cake" while singing it)

I'm a cute little dutch girl
As cute as cute can be
And all the boys around the block
Go crazy over me!

My boyfriend's name is Fello
He comes from a town called Jello
With pickles on his toes
And a ring around his nose

That's the way my story goes!

and some of the songs on the kids bop cds just leave me wondering what the hell!

[Mad_Pistachio]

national anthem. but, golly, that thing was capable of waking a dead man up!

on a side note.
when the weather was too crappy to go outside, we turned music on for kids to dance their wigglies out. 4 or 5 girls, ages between 4 and 5 (Pre-K group) were passionately singing along with the music: "we are never, ever, ever, ever, gonna be together!" - or something like that. I can't remember, and the CD was, apparently, changed. and all I thought was, "now, THAT's the spirit!"
yeah, Gangam Style is also a huge hit.

My Ding A Ling by Chuck Berry

When I was a little bitty boy
My grandmother bought me a cute little toy
Silver bells hangin' on a string
She told me it was my ding a ling

[Chorus]
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I want to play with my ding a ling
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I want to play with my ding a ling

And then mother took me to Grammar School
But I stopped all in the vestibule
Every time that bell would ring
Catched me playin' with my ding a ling

[Chorus]

Once I was climbing the garden wall
I slipped and had a terrible fall
I fell so hard I heard bells ring
But held on to my ding a ling

[Chorus]

Once I was swimming cross Turtle creek
Many snappers all around my feet
Sure was hard swimming cross that thing
With both hands holdin' my ding a ling

[Chorus]

This here song it ain't so sad
The cutest little song you ever had
Those of you who will not sing
You must be playin' with your own ding a ling
My ding a ling Your ding a ling, your ding a ling
We saw you playin' with your ding a ling
My ding a ling everybody sing
I want to play with my ding a ling

Funny story:

A friend and I were shopping at a store. There were no signs labeling fitting rooms as being for one gender or another, nor were there any fitting room attendants. He wanted advice on some clothes, so I was inside the fitting room area (outside of the stalls) so I could give my opinion when he stepped out.

An employee told me I was not allowed to be in the area, so I told my friend I had to step away because I didn't have a (scientifically correct word for male anatomy). The employee threatened to call security on me for using proper terminology. So, I sarcastically replied: "What else am I supposed to call it? My dingalingaling?!"

We found this song a few months later.

Old McDonald had a Farm
