Thread Name: Lyr ADD: Ging Gang Goolie (Robert Baden-Powell ??)
Subject: ADD Version: Ging Gong Gooly
After consulting my son Patrick we remembered it as follows:
GING GONG GOOLY
Ging gong gooly gooly gooly gooly rush rush;
Ging gong goo, ging gong goo;
Ging gong gooly gooly gooly gooly rush rush;
Ging gong goo, ging gong goo;
A-la, A-la A-la, A-la A-la, A-la mon;
A-la, A-la A-la, A-la A-la, A-la mon;
Sha-lee Wa-lee, Sha-lee Wa-lee;
Sha-lee Wa-lee, Sha-lee Wa-lee;
Oompah, oompah, oompah, oompah...
One group, sings the song completely through, while the does 'Oompah' completely throug. Then when the first group finishes, they reverse roles. At the end, oompahs continue in unison, at first loudly, but then gradually fading to a soft whisper.
