Animaterra, was that "The Cannibal King" with the big nose ring... that you learned? That was one of my favorites.

In Tampa, Fla in the mid 50s on, music was my favorite class at Gorrie Elementary. We sang from a small, dark blue book (wish I could find one), songs like Grandfather's Clock, Lil' Liza Jane, Sweet Betsey from Pike, Polly Wolly, Tenting Tonight, Clemintine, etc., America the Beautiful, Battle Hymn of the Republic, etc.
