GUEST,Peter McLaren Lyr Req: a worm song (54* d) RE: Lyr Req: a worm song 24 Nov 11


Here's a version that my mother sang as a young girl in the late 1920's or thereabouts in Queensland (Australia). It's obviously related to the one cited by Little Robyn and goes to a tune similar to the old Laurel & Hardy theme:

Oh, poor Miss Brown, she died last week
The worms are eating her tender cheek
And ev'ry time she wriggles about
The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out!
