Subject: Lyr Add: WAY DOWN YONDER ON BEAVER'S CREEK
All right, all you extra-smart folks out there, I've got another one for you. A friend of mine taught me a song of the title named above, but she only knew two verses. Anybody know more verses? Here's the song as I've learned it from her:

1) Way down yonder on Beaver's Creek
Keemo kitty won't you kymeeo
Darkies* there grow to be ten feet
Keemo kitty won't you kymeeo

CHORUS: Keemo kymo zero are
M'hee, m'hy, m'humdrum pennywinkle
Pit-pat pitty pat, blue-eyed pussycat
Singsong kitty won't you kymeeo.

2) I go to bed, but it ain't no use
Keemo kitty won't you kymeeo
My feet stick out for the chickens to roost
Keemo kitty won't you kymeeo

(*We prefer to substitute "people there grow..." for obvious reasons.)
