Subject: RE: Go get an axe...anybody know it?
Hello all....

I was trying to teach my teen age nephews and nieces the tune my dad (life long army) used to make us sing during long car trips. So I tried to look it up to see if anyone else passes this down to their kids, and found this site. After reading all your entries, I add our New Jersey Version which went like this:

I fell out of a window
a seventeenth story window
and sprained my eyebrow on the pavement, the pavement.

Quick get an axe!
There's a hair on Baby's chest!
Man's best friend is his mother..
You're a Liar! You're another!
You've been drinkin too much Whiskey.......

Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
Peroxide makes the hair grow blonder,
Onions make the breath grow stronger!

"My Pappy shot a horsie! YEEAAH POP!"

Im a villain, a dirty rotten villain,
I get a great delight,
In stirring up a fight,
and beating little babies on the head!

I get a "D",
For puttin too much poison, in me mudders shredded wheat!

"AND I EAT... RAW... MEAT!"

Shave and a haircut.... Two Bits!
