Hey Jimmy Joe John Jim Jack

Looking for the name and availability of a song I remember as a child. I was thinking it was a Limeliters album. Also had "Tingo Layo (sp.?), Run Little Dinkey Run".

There once was a tiger, tiny little tiger who never learned to roar He's now a mat, stretched out flat on somebody's bedroom floor

Hey Jimmy Joe John Jim Jack Even Little Tigers Lose There Knack When somebody twice their size Can't see the world through childrens's eyes.

Thanks

Hi! The album you're looking for is "Through Children's Eyes" by the Limeliters, reissued on the Folk Era label, #FE2183CD. You'll find it available at www.cdnow.com if you're careful to spell "Limeliters" the way the group does.
I would prefer to patronize Folk Era's "Rediscover Music" mail-order service, but I lost the phone number. Does anybody know if they're still operating, and how to contact them? There is no mention of "Rediscover" on the Folk Era Website.
