I'm looking for the words to several old children's songs. I remember them as being sung by Burl Ives, back in my childhood 1950's, but I haven't found them on any of his albums, or in any databases anywhere else. Did I just dream them, or does anyone else remember these?
I think the one went: "The moon is the North Wind's cookie; He eats it day by day Until there's but a little crust Which crumbles all away.
The South Wind is the baker. He kneads in his And makes a new one > and > And puts it back again."
If I am remembering correctly, there were two more songs on the album, one of which had a chorus of "Me and my lollipop, lollipop, lollipop, lolly, lolly, lollipop tree." And also "There was a little turtle who lived in a box, and swam in a puddle, and climbed on the rocks..."
Do these ring a bell with anyone?
