I'm thinking of teaching the kids to make up their own verses on some of these (work song for second graders) such as in South Australia, for example,
"We're learning about continents,
Heave away, Haul away,
And all about where sailors went.
Bound for South Australia."

I'm still wanting some songs of call and response or rounds from South America, Africa, and from Asia, or any other songs that you know from those continents that would be fun for kids to learn. They don't have to be in English, actually, all the better if they are not and you can provide phonetic pronunciation. Spanish would be no problem. Tai or Chinese or Arabic or something else I would need help with pronunciation.
The Lion Sleeps Tonight is another I already have in mind.

Any more songs?
