Hey kids,

Sorry for the non-folk content. My wife is looking for the lyrics for Splish Splash, to teach her middle-school choir. I've checked OLGA, and came up with nothing. Where else can I look?

Thanks
Paul.

I did find it at two locations:

Splish Splash, I was takin' a bath
Long about a Saturday night
A rub-a-dub, just relaxin' in the tub
Thinkin' everything was alright
Well, I stepped out the tub, put my feet on the floor,
I wrapped the towel around me and I Opened the door,
and then I Splish, Splash! I jumped back in the bath.
Well how was I to know there was a party going on?

They was a-splishin' and a-splashin',
Reelin' with the feelin', movin' and a-groovin',
Rockin' and a-rollin', yeah! [Sax solo]

Bing bang, I saw the whole gang
Dancin' on my living room rug, yeah!
Flip flop, they was doin' the bop
All the teens had the dancin' bug
There was lollipop with-a Peggy Sue
Good Golly, Miss Molly was-a even there, too!
A-well-a, Splish Splash, I forgot about the bath
I went and put my dancin' shoes on, yay...

I was a rollin' and a strollin',
reelin' with the feelin',
moving and a groovin,
splishin' and a splashin', yeah!

Yes, I was a-splishin' and a splashin'...
I was a-rollin' and a-strollin'...

Yeah, I was a-movin' and a-groovin'
We was a-reelin' with the feelin'
We was a-rollin' and a-strollin'
Movin' with the groovin'
Splish splash, yeah!

Thanks folks.

You have contributed to yet another butchering of a popular song by finger-snapping, squeaky-voiced six-to-eighth graders.
