Ah, do you remember these?
Here's a Fun Friday Fifteen, since I missed the Thursday Thirteen. (Yes, I did just invent the Fun Friday Fifteen!)
- Old Blue (Bet you five dollars he's a good dog too.)
- The Old Gray Mare (She ain't what she used to be.)
- Sweetly Sings the Donkey (At the break of day.)
- Git Along Little Dogies (It's your misfortune and none of my own.)
- Mary Had a Little Lamb (Its fleece was white as snow.)
- Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat (Where have you been?)
- Where, Oh Where Has My Little Dog Gone? (Where, oh where can he be?)
- Pop! Goes the Weasel (Round and round the cobbler's bench...)
- Froggie Went a Courtin' (And he did ride, a-hum, a-hum.)
- Go Tell Aunt Rhody (The old gray goose is dead.)
- Be Kind to your Webfooted Friends (For a duck may be somebody's mother.)
- Three Blind Mice (Did ever you see such a sight in your life?)
- Teensy Weensy Spider (Climbed up the spout again.)
- Rabbit Ain't Got No Tail At All (Same song, second verse, a little bit louder, and a little bit worse.)
- The Bear Went Over the Mountain (To see what he could see.)
Now which one of these is stuck in your head? For me, it's "Froggie Went a Courtin'." A-hum.

I'm voting for numbers 11 and 15. The old black bear backed up the butte while the other black bear backed down.
1. Thanks a bunch – love the list – for me it was Go Tell Aunt Rhody (The old gray goose is dead.) and Be Kind to your Webfooted Friends (For a duck may be somebody's mother.)
2. I might add - Puff the Magic Dragon.
I like and look forward to your posts.
