Subject: RE: Origins: My Girl's a Corker
I learned the song when I was around 5 years old, and I think my day camp teachers used to say:

"That's where all the money go-o-oes!
Oom-pa oom-pa oom-pa-pa
Oom-pa-pa
Oom-pa-pa
Oom-pa Oom-pa Oom-pa pa
Oom-pa-pa-pa-pa HEY!
"

after each verse. Probably something they added on, but I was disappointed to see that it isn't part of the original lyrics.
