This little song bird has been teaching her mom how to sing some old favorites!
I have been singing a couple of songs WRONG!!! But thanks to this beauty, I now know the REAL lyrics!!
If you're happy and you know it
Clap your hands
If you're happy and you know it
Clap your hands
Is actually:
If you're happy in your nose
Clap your hands
If you're happy in your nose
Clap your hands
So very glad I have that straightened out! – After all these years, who knew???
Also to continue your education, Row Row Row your boat is another one I’ve been singing incorrectly…
Row Row Row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily Merrily Merrily Merrily
Life is butter dream!
So thankful I have those two songs right now… No telling what else I’m singing wrong!!
I remember y.e.a.r.s. ago that Elizabeth Elliot said she was a young adult before she realized “Bringing in the Sheaves” wasn’t “Bringing in the Sheets!”
Of course the “Happy in your nose” song makes perfect sense for a little that has “Loot Beer” as her favorite drink!!! I’m sure the bubbles in her nose makes it happy!!
“Loot Beer" is Mammy’s favorite soda, too, Sweetie!!
Share your favorite "alternate" lyrics for songs!! Would love to hear them.
It isn't a lyric, but my favorite saying of 3yo Zane is Baby Genius. This week I asked him what Easter was about and he said, "Genius was died and then he was alive again. That's cool." Love it.
ReplyDeleteDebra, I have told sooo many people about my Friend's Grandson that calls Baby Jesus - Baby Genius! That is one of my very favorites, too. He is a Jim!! oh, I mean gem!!
