my brother didn't know what those words were and used to sing 'Maresy dotes and dosey dotes and little lamsey divey'...can't sing it any other way lol oh good gracious!
How about Shirley Abicare playing on her Zither - 'Little Boy Fishing'. I think it used to be on a Sunday afternoon.
Stop it Charlie and stop it now - or someone will go on about Muffin the Mule and Torchy Torchy the Battery Boy
yep ....not sure i could remember it all now, but if i could, i'd have a darn good go at doing it again! lol
Sorry Leo - I won't mention Mitch the Monkey in Supercar or my favourite Spotty dog in wooden tops (he used to walk everywhere but his feet never touched the ground following willie and his sister forgotten her name and there was Sam who used to help Mr Woodentop) That programme was very un-PC 'Watch with Mother' now a-days it would have to be called 'Watch with a suitably Police cleared minder/carer'
Right now you've set me thinking to pre-school days - the Wooden tops were on on a Friday, Thursday was Rag,Tag and Bobtail, Wednesday the Flowerpot Men, Tuesday I think might have been Andy Pandy and that leaves Monday - Picture Book?
I remember Listen with Mother before we had a TV - but Rag, Tag..was my favourite when we did get one. Andy Pandy always seemed to be a bit bizarre to me. Talking of the old songs, have you seen the Audi advert that uses "Ugly Duckling"? - brilliant advert. Brought back memories of Puff The Magic Dragon as well!
There’s a tiny house By a tiny stream Where a lovely lass Had a lovely dream And her dream came true quite unexpectedly In Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea She was out one day Where the tulips grow When a handsome lad Stopped to say hello And before she knew he kissed her tenderly In Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea The happy pair were married one Sunday afternoon They left the church and ran away to spend their honeymoon In a tiny house By a tiny streamWhere the lovely lass Had a lovely dream And the last I heard they still live happily In Gilly Gilly Ossenfeffer Katzenellen Bogen By The Sea
