Hi, Sarah. I have two suggestions:

1. follow links for Johnny Booker (top of this thread)

2. at the top right of this page is a box labelled 'Lyrics and Knowledge Search.'   Search for Old Dan Tucker.

There seem to be a number of songs of this type. The man's name changes, but he always has a two-syllable last name such as Tucker, Booker, Bucca or Pigger. Many of the funny verses are shared. If you remember the tune, you could string together the verses you enjoy for your daughter.

It's an old minstrel song.
