GUEST,Roger M. Wilcox Origin: Sipping Cider Through a Straw (45) RE: Origin: Sipping Cider Through a Straw 02 Sep 10


Up at YMCA Camp Big Bear (circa 1975), I learned basically the same version Gale did above. Except the last 2 verses went:

And now I have [repeat]
a mother in law [repeat]
and 48 kids [repeat]
all call me ma [repeat]
And now I have my mother in law, and 58 kids all call me ma.

The moral is [repeat]
My little dears [repeat]
Don't you sip cider [repeat]
You sip beer [repeat]
The moral is my little dears, don't you sip cider, you sip...
Dad's old fashioned root beer
Same old thing as last year
Going on its third year
Guess I'm gonna stop here.
It's carbonateeeeeeeed!
