Animal Songs

[renielarson]

Boomers post under Rats and Alligators got me thinking. Yeah, I do that sometimes...really... ;)

She mentioned a crocodile song she had sung to her grandchildren. That started my brain churning...no wisecracks from anyone...

What came to mind was a song I had never heard until a few years ago. Maybe I'm sheltered and maybe all of you know the song from years ago, but not me. Well, it has become a favorite of mine and I sing it all the time even though it's a Christmas song.

I'm gonna share my favorite animal song and am hoping you will share yours. Ok, ok...this may be silly but...

What a wonderful bird is the pelican.
His beak holds more than his belly can.
He holds more in his beak
Than he can eat in a week.
And I don't know how the hell he can.

My father taught me this when I was four. Not sure if he was the author.

Just make up your own music. ;D

I love pelicans! What a funny little song. I will sing it to my granddaughter but will change it slightly to: I don't know how the heck he can. When the grand swears for the first time, I don't want to be the one who taught her! ;D

OK, this is not an animal song. But just sit back, relax and watch the sheer innocence and joy. This is just for a short TOTV break.

enjoy, chels

I have been looking for "Stewball was a Racehorse" on youtube. I can't find Peter, Paul, and Mary's version. I found two others. The first one is a couple of guys singing it for somebody they know. (They spelled a word wrong on their little message thing, but that's OK.) These guys are having fun. And I think they might even have gray ponytails, but I can't tell for sure. Then I found another version with pictures of horses.

My "Never Smile at a Crocodile" contribution is still over in the alligator thread and I have to get out of here today. But I hope you like Stewball. I bet that you will not be able to stop singing along with this song.

Maybe you will like both of these versions. I like the two guys best. But I hope the song does not make anybody too sad again about the lost horsepark.
