and Texas needs rain. The whole world is festering with unhappy souls.
The French........

Can you add to this song?; another line or two if you remember it, maybe the group that recorded it........and then start one of your own.

Never ending name that song??

I think I know, I think I know.....Merry Minuet
Am I right Gracie?

Merry Minuet

They’re rioting in Africa (whistling)
They’re starving in Spain (whistling)
There’s hurricanes in Flo-ri-da (whistling)
And Texas needs rain.
The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans, the Germans hate the Poles
Italians hate Yugoslavs, South Africans hate the Dutch
AND I DON’T LIKE ANYBODY VERY MUCH!!
But we can be tranquil and thankful and proud
For man’s been endowed with a mushroom-shaped cloud
And we know for certain that some lovely day Someone will set the
spark off
AND WE WILL ALL BE BLOWN AWAY!!
They’re rioting in Africa (whistling)
There’s strife in Iran
What nature doesn’t do to us
Will be done by our fellow "man"

<grin>

Cheers, all!

Considering the recent events......
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak

Okay, try this one Coco

Default hurricanes in Florida.....
Used to sing this song in a coffee house in Chicago when my hair was long and my waist thinner. Learned the words from a Kingston Trio album if I remember right.

You are correct Susan, although I prefer this bit of Mr. Irving Berlin as sung by Doris Day!
Okay, Who's next?
