The following is a song that my father used to sing, that I can not find in your pages. My problem is with the Susie's my verse, I think I have it wrong. Does anyone know this one?
Atta Kootcha Catcha Kamma Tossa Marra Tossa Milka Samma Kamma Wacky Brown, fell into the well, fell into the well, fell into the deep dark well.
Susie Jones milking in the barn saw him fall and ran and told her mother that
Atta Kootcha Catcha Kamma Tossa Marra Tossa Milka Samma Kamma Wacky Brown, fell into the well, fell into the well, fell into the deep dark well.
Susies Ma, makin' cracklin' bread, told old Joe that her Susie had said that
Atta Kootcha Catcha Kamma Tossa Marra Tossa Milka Samma Kamma Wacky Brown, fell into the well, fell into the well, fell into the deep dark well.
Then old Joe put his plow aside, grabbed his cain and hobbled into town to say that
Atta Kootcha Catcha Kamma Tossa Marra Tossa Milka Samma Kamma Wacky Brown, fell into the well, fell into the well, fell into the deep dark well.
To the well everybody came, what a shame, it took so long to say his name that
Atta Kootcha Catcha Kamma Tossa Marra Tossa Milka Samma Kamma Wacky Brown, drown.
I will try to get my daughter, who is better at such things, to work out the tune.
