tickly, Yee hee hee, bye bye blackbird.
If you should ever come across them,
would you please tell them that I lost them,
Oh, I have lost my underwear,
I don't care I'll to bare,
bye bye blackbird.....

When I was a kid, we used to sing a parody to God Bless America.

God bless my underwear
My only pair
Stand beside them
And guide them

That is all of the song I remember from 55 years ago.

During the 1940s in Ireland the Flour used in baking bread came in bags made from linen, a couple of these bags sewn together made many a good sturdy pair of knickers.
Printed on the Flour bags was the firms name along with their motto,"the early bird gets the worm" and this bird was a Blackbird, we would have teased the girls by requests to see their"Blackbird".
Although I don`t remember any rhyme relating to this.

Sandy Paton, on one of his and Caroline's kids' albums on Folk-Legacy, has a great song, "I Wonder Where's My Underwear". It's not the song you are asking about, but it might add to your song list (a set about underwear?). It is certainly a song worth learning. Kids like it.

Once I went in swimmin'
Where there were no wimmen
By the deep blue sea
Seein' no one there,
I hung my underwear
Upon a willow tree
Dove into the water
Just like Pharoh's daughter
Dove into the Nile--
Someone saw me there
Stole my underwear
And left me with a smile.

How does one do that? I wondered when I saw a pair of underpants next to a path in Fellsmere Park. But then I reflected: All it takes is a little good luck followed by a little bad luck.

Connor Girls, yes I remember this from my girl guide campfire days, but we used to sing "bye, bye long johns" - a parody of Bye, Bye Blackbird.

I have lost my underwear
I don't care, I'll go bare
Bye, bye long johns

They were very dear to me
They tickled me, tee, hee, hee
Bye, bye long johns

How I miss that little trap door behind me
If you see it you'll know where to find me

I have lost my underwear
I don't care, I'll go bare
Bye, bye long johns

I was interested to read Big Jim from Jackson's post from 09 Aug 04 - 09:57AM about Tonto saying the "Lone Ranger buy me 'nother pair!"

In the mid 1990's in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area I collected what appears a current version of that Lone Ranger rhyme:

Batman & Robin
flyin in the air
Batman lost his underwear
Batman said "Me don't care.
Robin'll buy me another pair.


This rhyme still appears to recited with no accompanying motions.

I'm not sure if the children get that this rhyme supports the rumored homosexual relationship between Batman and Robin. Maybe I'm jsut reading that inference into this children's rhyme.

Way back in April 2005 Guest dustyrose wrote that she {he?} was going crazy trying to remember the rest of this rhyme:

Maybe it's the name "dusty", but this line popped in my head when I finished reading that post:

"might be dirty just like you".

I vaguely remember "Teacher, Teacher I declare" from my childhood in Atlantic City, New Jersey in the 1950s.

Could this be the forgotten line or is this an example of the folk process at work?

And another one (for the line "me backside can go bare"):

A BEGGIN' I WILL GO - [Trad. arr. Martin Carthy / Dave Swarbrick]

Of all the trades in England the beggin' is the best
For when a beggar's tired, he can lay him down and rest

Chorus (after each verse):
       And a-beggin' I will go
       And a-beggin' I will go

I've a pocket for me oatmeal and another for me salt
I've a pair of little crutches tha should see how I can halt

There's patches on me fusty coat and a black patch on me eye
But when it comes to tuppenny ale I can see as well as thee

Me britches they are no but holes but me heart is free of care
As long as I've me belly full me backside can go bare

I've been deaf at Duckinfield and I've been blind at Shaw
And many's the reet and willing lass I've bedded in the straw

There's a bed for me where'er I lie and I don't pay no rent
I've got no noisy looms to mind and I am reet content

I can rest when I am tired and I heed no master's bell
Ya men'd be daft to be a king when beggars live so well

Of all the trades in England the beggin' is the best
For when a beggar's tired, he can lay him down and rest

I found these two rhymes on THIS wonderful thread of children's rhymes:

"Here are some of my memories from summer camp which I didn't see here:

Oh I wear my pink pajamas
In the summer when it's hot
And I wear my flannel nightie
In the winter when it's not
And sometimes in the spring
And sometimes in the fall
I jump between the sheets
With nothing on at all

Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
With nothing on at all

and, to the tune of "God Bless America":

God bless my underwear
My only pair
Stand beside them
And guide them
Through the wear and the tear of the wash
From the washer
To the dryer
To the clothesline
In the air
God bless my underwear
My only pair

Kind of tame compared to Miss Susie, but apparently of some historical interest. One I never thought I'd forget but seem to have done just that is that school song to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic; can't remember if it was celebrating the last day of school or promoting arson or something even more malevolent.

Oh well; sometimes senior moments suck donkey droppings."

Azizi gave us this chorus:

Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep
With nothing on at all

The way I learned a chorus to that song was:

Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, what's it to ya?
Glory, glory, wind blows through ya
When you jump right in between the sheets
With nothing on at all

I might add that in my misspent youth in Minnesota we always sang that song with a burlesque Scandihoovian accent. Thus, that chorus was sung like this:

Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, vhat's it to ya?
Glory, glory, vind blows t'rough ya
Vhen you yoomp right in betveen da sheets

I was walking on the beach yesterday and we were wondering about a pair of lost knickers in the sand dunes (the theory was someone changed after paddling and forgot to take them home).
It brought to mind the Susie chant which my daughter heard at secondary school (so in the 80's). She claimed there were no actions or clapping done to it. A friend of mine was shocked to hear her 5 year old grand daughter recite it (early 90s I think).

Ooo ah, got no bra

A variation of this gives the coy verse

As she slipped between the sheets with nothing on at all.

Tune is the chorus of 'John Brown's Body', of course; and the joke [such as it is] consists in the omission of the last word of the first 3 lines, then the two last words, and so on, till you get "Oh Sir Jasper!", "Oh Sir!" and finally "Oh!"

"I have lost my underwear" was a song made up by David Graham of Christchurch New Zealand in the 1970s, to the tune of "Bye bye blackbird". The version given here is probably distantly derived from it, as there are lines that don't make sense here, but did make sense originally. It went -

I have lost my underwear, I don't care, I'll go bare.
Bye bye, long johns.
[You were always close to me], tickled me, tee hee hee!
Bye bye, long johns.
How I loved that little trapdoor behind me,
You all knew exactly where to find me.
I have lost my underwear, I don't care, I'll go bare.
Long johns, bye bye.

Not a hundred percent sure of the bit in square brackets, but think it's right.

This thread exemplifies a curious shift that the dictionaries (AHD, MWC13, OED) have not caught up with. "Underwear", to the dictionaries (& me), is an uncountable noun referring generally to undershirts, underpants, etc. But to many Americans these days it means underpants, and the identification is so complete that it takes plural verbs & pronouns. I suppose this must have gotten started as a euphemism -- generality standing in for vagueness, as in "bathroom" for "toilet", "marketing" for "promotion", etc.

The only one I've committed to memory goes like this....

(Sung to the tune of "Country Roads")

"Almost Heaven
Oklahoma!
Big Red River
Lots of dust and tumbleweeds.

Country music
Leon Russell too!
Then there's Conway Twitty
In Oklahoma City.

(Chorus)
Country Roads
Take me there.
I need a change
Of underwear.
Oklahoma
Welfare for all!
Take me home
Country Roads.

Up in Tulsa,
I met the cutest squaw.
I tried to kiss her
But she swung hard
And Broke my jaw."

I can't remember the second part of the second verse but you just repeat the chorus and you're done.

A little bit of modern...

from (ironically) the Barenaked Ladies' song called "Pinch Me"

On an evening such as this
It's hard to tell if I exist
If I Packed a car and leave this town
Who'll notice that I'm not around?
I could hide out under there
I just made you say 'underwear'
I could leave but I'll just stay
All my stuff's here anyway.

All the girls declare saying he's in disrepair
And they close their eyes and wish I'd die
They seem to think my end is nigh
I'm the bloke that came home broke from Cromer Bingo

Verse
I was taken to the cleaners at that hall there is no doubt
I thought I'd lose some dirt but I only lost me shirt
And then I lost my trousers and my underwear and all
Now the prom's the only place I can frequent
Coz I've even lost the shirt that I was lent

From: GUEST,Peter Laban

A song I heard sung by Vincent Boyle the traditional way although it later turned out to be a Ritchie Kavanagh song.


"A LITTLE BIT OF 'LASTIC"
Lyrics and Music by Richie Kavanagh

I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace
I was made for to cover your important little place
Lads try to get their hands on me and end up in disgrace
I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace

I come in all kinds of colours every shape an size
The one thing about me is the element of surprise
Every Monday morning I'm hung out on the line
And left there all day if the weather it is fine

I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace
I was made for to cover your important little place
Lads try to get their hands on me and end up in disgrace
I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace

Ah sure I'm hanging here upon the line all through out the day
An as the lads pass by they all ways look my way
Ya know now if I could talk to them such story's I could tell
But I know the way the look at me the know it all to well

I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace
I was made for to cover your important little place
Lads try to get their hands on me and end up in disgrace
I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace

Now the make me much smaller I hardly cover it at all
A course the price is bigger though I am very small
Now when I get a bit torn I know the end is near
Thought I hear that big Maggie has the same one 20 year

I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace
I was made for to cover your important little place
Lads try to get their hands on me and end up in disgrace
I'm a little bit of 'lastic an a little bit of lace

Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true?

Flashy dashy shawls

She's kilted up her petticoats
And after him rode she.

As we jogged on together, my boys, together side by side
By chance this fair maid's garter, by chance it came untied
For fear that she might lose it, I unto her did say
"Oh my love your garter is come untied, sing folderoliddle all day.

As we jogged on together, my boys, the grass was growin' high

Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs
From: GUEST,TJ in San Diego

I lost my mind and composed this one in honor of this unique theme:

Poor Jon was a young lad who toiled in tall cotton.
A handsome young fellow who'd be long forgotten
Were it not for the time, when most lads were at war,
Young Jon found himself, after work, in a bar.

A hard-working crew of young ladies came in,
They were doing men's work, a-getting crops in..
They were all filling in for their male counterparts,
Engaged in some battle in far distant parts.

They soon cast their eyes on our hero, Big Jon,
Who, noting the attention, began leading them on.
And then, in a flash, poor Jon was surrounded
For the young ladies' ardor, nay, lust - soon abounded.

He was, after all, the first man they had seen
Since their regular consorts had marched from the scene.
They grasped at his shirt, and soon ripped it to shreds,
They went for the breeches, filling poor Jon with dread.

For what, after all, could one gentleman do,
To satisfy such a libidinous crew?
He made for the door, lost his boots in the scuffle,
With his pants at the half-mast, he mastered the shuffle.

He shed them right smartly as he ran down the stairs,
With the girls in pursuit and himself nearly bare.
What saved him from hell, at the hands of those pickers,
Was the timely invention of breakaway knickers!

He sprinted, he galloped, he ran double fast,
He eluded them finally, albeit bare-assed.
And so Jon's reputation continued to grow,
Where the women are lusty and the tall cotton grows.

He saved those young maidens from the dread Scarlet Letter,
But, now, thinking on it, he could have done better.
Were it me, praise the Lord, I'd have lain down and took it,
But poor feckless Jon, why, the fool just forsook it.

When the question of honor thus clouded his thinking,
Jon fled from the scene with his "tail lights" a-blinking.
I'm sure the girls' menfolk were grateful and all,
But they laughed ever after 'bout how Jon missed the Ball.

WALKIN' ROUND IN WOMEN'S UNDERWEAR
(Bob Rivers)

Lacy things the wife is missin',
Didn't ask for her permission.
I'm wearin' her clothes,
Her silk pantyhose,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear.

In the store there's a teddy,
With little straps like spaghetti.
It holds me so tight,
Like handcuffs at night,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear.

In the office there's a guy named Melvin,
He pretends that I am Murphy Brown.
He'll say, "Are you ready?" We'll say,"Whoa, Man!
Let's wait until the wife is out of town!"

Later on, if you wanna,
We can dress like Madonna,
Put on some eyeshade,
And join the parade,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear!

And here's one of Stan and someone else (I was a Patches Pal! I didn't watch Stan much as a kid even though we sang his songs every Christmas.)
Who lived near Chelsea, sent them to me.
And so I sat, through the Christmas season,
With my new undies on, and watched TV.

A crashing bore, the same old drag,
When it was done I grabbed a bag,
I went down to Marks and Spencers,
I was not alone.....

'May I return these pants, please, missus,
They're all right for sissies, not for us real men.'
She looked at me, a trifle weary,
'I suppose so, deary', and I went home again.

Give me my dull old pants, give me my dull old pants,
Give me my dull old pants, give me my dull old pants.

This was written for Monty's weekly spot on Radio Kent, but perhaps understandably they thought it might offend the original noble composer, and vetoed it. I still trot it out every January, though.

No more sitting on the old school bench.

UNDERWEAR - Barry Louis Polisar
As recorded by Barry Louis Polisar on "Off-Color Songs for Kids" (1983)

CHORUS: Underwear is everywhere but mostly underneath.
Usually, you can't see what goes on beneath
Ragged clothes or evening gowns or the finest three-piece suit.
Underwear is everywhere; there is no substitute.

Everyone is equal when it comes to underwear,
Because beneath your underwear it's just yourself that's there.
Everyone wears underwear -- or at least they should.
Underwear is lots of things, but mostly it is good. CHORUS

Some like the feel of cotton. I share this belief.
Likewise, I don't like boxer shorts; give me a pair of briefs.
Some don't like to talk about it; that's because they're shy.
People laugh at underwear, but I do not know why. CHORUS

"Now don't use bleach on underwear." That's what my mom will say.
"Cause bleach will eat the fabric and soon they'll wash away."
Underwear with lots of holes is a sorry sight,
Look around and try to see who's wearing theirs too tight! CHORUS TWICE

The Scotsman - Bryan Bowers
written by Mike Cross

Well, a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair,
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share.
He fumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet,
And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Chorus: Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh,
Ring di diddly ay oh,
(repeat last line of previous verse)

About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by,
One says to the other with a twinkle in her eye:
"See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built?
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt!"

(Chorus)

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be;
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see.
And there, behold, for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
Was nothin' more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

(Chorus)

They marvelled for a moment, then one said: "We must be gone.
Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along."
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow,
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show.

(Chorus)

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call, and stumbled towards the trees.
Behind the bush he lifts his kilt, and gawks at what he sees.
And in a startled voice he says, to what's before his eyes,
"Oh, lad I don't know where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!"

(Chorus)

there was a brave old scotsman at the battle of waterloo .
he lifted up his petticoat and showed his cock a doodle doo
his coocka ddoodle doo was dirty
so he owed his number one his number one was sirtier
and made all the frenchies do a bunk
