If you sing this with children, there are nice little gestures following the text.

13 Aug 99 - 10:34 PM (#104900) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Itsy Bitsy/Eensy Weensy Spider From: Susan A-R Now when Dick G and Susan of DT were in my kitchen, they talked about a rendition of this one to the Mary Ellen Carter. Something to the effect of Rise again rise again no matter if your legs they be two four six eight or ten . . . Somehow I think it may be in the database, ahlthough I havent checked and am not a mistress of blue clidkey things. I don't know, are parodies generally copywritten?? Susan A-R |
13 Aug 99 - 10:39 PM (#104902) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Itsy Bitsy/Eensy Weensy Spider From: Susan A-R Yep, it's there. I typed in Spider under search and came up with it. It's the second eensey weensey listing. What fun!! Also found my friend Dick MaCormac's rendition of little boxes, a very seventies version, in there. My I'm amazed at what lurks in the cobwebs of this database. Susan A-R |

14 Aug 99 - 06:02 PM (#105080) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Itsy Bitsy/Eensy Weensy Spider From: digger@elevator-bbs.com There is a Spanish nursery rhyme which uses a similar tune to Eensey Weensey Spider: Habia una vez un gatico chiquico Habia una vez un gatico chiquico Que no podia que no podia Caminar Pasaron dos o tres, cuatro semanas Pasaron dos o tres, cuatro semanas Y no podia y no podia Y si la historia no les parece jarta Y si la historia no les parece jarta Y si la historia no les parece jarta Se la volvemos se la volvemos a contar! (I learned it from a Colombian friend Margarita from Cucuta, the hottest city in northern Colombia. Sorry I couldn't find the accent marks for "podia". Also "jarta" should be "harta" in regular Spanish, but Margarita sang it as jarta). David Shea Turners Falls, Massachusetts |

24 Feb 10 - 10:22 PM (#2849465) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Itsy Bitsy/Eensy Weensy Spider From: NightWing Re the elephants: I learned this in church camp as a kid: One elephant came out to play On a spider's web one day He had such enormous fun That he called for another elephant to come. Then it goes on to two elephants and so one. (I'll post the tune if anyone's interested) At the end of the first verse, the song leader would pick someone from the campfire circle to be the second elephant and they would make an "elephant chain": the leader with one arm held out like an elephant's trunk and the other between his legs as a tail, which the second elephant would grasp with HIS "trunk". At the end of each verse the last elephant got to choose a new elephant to join the line and the elephant chain would slowly make its way through the campfire circle, growing all the time. We could usually make it last through 8-10 elephants before it got boring. BB, NightWing |

For one who had run across the word Adderkop in "The Hobbit" and never before, it opened up new ideas. |
